Population of Shanghai is 2.63 crores and Population of Mumbai is 2 crores and Population of Pune is 72 lacs.
Are these Indian towns anywhere near Shanghai. If Not then Why ?
London's population is 94 lacs, Tokyo's population is 1.2 crores, Gurgaon's population is hardly a Million. Patna has barely 24 lac people. POPULATION OF BERLIN is 34 Lacs. Patna and Gurgaon despite less in population are no where near Tokyo or London or Berlin. If Not, then Why ? Even Manila is much better than many Indian cities with same or lesser population.
One can easily make out which can be the Street from an Indian city and which can be from a Foreign city.
The First one is from Tokyo which has 94 lac population and the next one is from Patna which barely has 24 lac people.
India's problem, it prima facie appears to be not just Population , its primarily MIS MANAGEMENT. Just a Food for thought for those who are fond of extending EXCUSES. We have become a Society which is fond of extending Excuses for everything, may be it is the outcome of our Chalta Hai Attitude.
The excuses will be ; Oh! We have a huge population and bigger in size. And when you tell them about China ...their reply will be ...Come on ! China is a Communist Country and we are a Democratic....And when you bring in USA which is Democratic as well as bigger in size...the response will be ...Oh! USA ...It has much lesser population.
Thats why , this comparison of cities. If you can not manage your cities well...the Nation will always be too big to manage.
Lets accept this fact that ; WE HAVE FAILED TO MANAGE THINGS BETTER. and unless we accept this fact we will never be able to improve ourselves as a SOCIETY.
