all the talk of india becoming a strong economic power will flop in the next 2 years if the govt does nothing to allay the misgivings of industry post-singur. a finished path-breaking project had to be abandoned because of legal perspectives and because a party aspires to rule bengal soon-and for no tangible economic reason, however much people talk of fundamental rights vs constitutional rights. the image of the country, investments, industry, wealth, well-being will all take a heavy beating. no matter what the finance minister does. there must also be heavy incentives for excellence in residential projects across the country. it is one thing to build substandard homes, and quite another to build excellent projects. there must be a clear and transparent way to evaluate residential projects, and based on the grading, the price per sq ft must be established after residential projects are finished. there must be no discrimmination between low cost and mid cost and high cost homes. these 2 steps will revitalise the economy more that any other concept.
