Rs 3.5 bn for Delhi's infrastructure ahead of Commonwealth games

I think it will be interesting to see how the infrastructure of Delhi is geared up for the Commonwealth games. With our national pride at stake, given the grandeur with which China put up their Olympics, it is an extremely important event for the country and the government seems to have realized this. Here's a small article on Economic Times: http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/economy/infrastructure/Rs-35-bn-for-Delhis-infrastructure-ahead-of-Commonwealth-games/articleshow/5153640.cms

We have spoken about political will at many points in the course. A stimulus like the Commonwealth games forces the country to develop infrastructure on a fast-track basis. The SAF Games in Chennai, for instance, triggered rapid infrastructure development. After the games, the residential facilities built for the sportspersons were converted into housing facility for government employees, and the swimming pool, etc. are open to the public for use.

On the one hand, while the government imposes on itself deadlines like Sonia Gandhi's birthday, I think hosting such events of international importance could be a potential area for fast-track world class infrastructure development in urban cities.

I agree with you on the importance of developmental aspects of such project but the point of concern as pointed out by many is where its needed. for instance seeing the Delhi example it might surprise us that despite being the national capital there's water problem, sewage problems, slum problems in many areas. Further the impact on surrounding cities which will in turn be subjected to such scarcity as the people will start moving. These examples are necessary but the main theme is to get decentralized development of infra, as one way or other everything is related. Other example includes the importance of metro. Is it necessary everywhere? there are few cities where if BRTS, MRTS etc. are given due importance can well take care of need, but we are sort of blind, same solution for all problem. No its not sustainable, we in lust of building world class infra are forgetting the need for such development & sustainability. One may argue that it will increase govt. revenue who in turn will put it into development of the poor's, but thats also quite illusive.

Can anyone recommend the best Software Deployment program for a small IT service company like mine? Does anyone use Kaseya.com or GFI.com? How do they compare to these guys I found recently: N-able N-central remote software access
? What is your best take in cost vs performance among those three? I need a good advice please... Thanks in advance!

Hi there!
I would like to burn a theme at here. There is such a nicey, called HYIP, or High Yield Investment Program. It reminds of ponzy-like structure, but in rare cases one may happen to meet a company that really pays up to 2% daily not on invested money, but from real profits.

For several years , I earn money with the help of these programs.
I don't have problems with money now, but there are heights that must be conquered . I make 2G daily, and my first investment was 500 dollars only.
Right now, I managed to catch a guaranteed variant to make a sharp rise . Turn to my blog to get additional info.
