The west has realized that the best investment inhuman life is towards good health , knowledge and peaceful life.
In India, right from the morning till going to bed one is scrambling to earn MORE and INVEST for the future . Invest in banks ? Real estate ? Jewelry ? But do not live long to see those investments come to fruition.
The life expectancy in Indian Metros is less than 60 years for a male ( 54 for Mumbai -meaning you will be dead before you retire). In this short time, there is this unfathomable greed, vice, struggle to earn MORE , save MORE , invest MORE and live SHORT life span.
All bull sh^t. Out metros - Mumbai, Kolkata, Delhi and Chennai have exceeded their capacity two decades ago.
The disease metastasized to tier two cities because the tier one cities simply cannot cope with the termite like population , slums, pollution, filth and acute shortage of space and water.
Even tier two cities are saturating and now tier three cities.
There is no 'oh so big story' here. It is simply a case of over population and mindless urbanization that is driving people to smaller towns.
