it is a personal view of economic growth and development. Which necessarily means that it is a subjective view, and all claims to being objective is explicitly denied, rejected, null and void. What I write reflects how I perceive the world.

Dear Atanu,

Your blog is really interesting. You should be having a lot of passion for bringing a change in India, you seem to understand the situation in india very well. I also have a passion for better India, I am not an expert who know different things and at the same time I am not a good writer. Like me there are so many people who are passionate with energy, but dont know what they can do. Why dont you think and post something about what these people can do to bring a change. Today we are understanding the real India, so some of us should come forward to bring a change

Thanks,

Great blog. Hard hitting and true. Just saying that makes me a fundamentalist I suppose. Well so be it. I am tired of intellectually lazy people who will not engage you on the issues but use ad hominem attacks to avoid a dialog.

Hello. Do you ever think about how people get around (and get stuff around) in their daily lives in India? If so, may I invite you to have a look at http://www.indiastreets.org and if it tempts you at all perhaps we can talk. Warm Regards, Eric Britton (not quite an economist, PhD program Columbia in development economics wth Albert Hirschman)

Enjoyed reading your blog. You have covered many relevant and pertinent topics.
I have been observing the development sector for some years now. It has such a ‘we’ and a ‘them’ attitude. Of course, there are some NGO’s who have done commendable work and we have some very committed persons working in the field. I am no economist, so I am hesitant to comment on the economic policies aspect, but I believe the reason India remains undeveloped ( I must use that term, however uncomfotable most of us might be with it) is because of its education system. There are definitely two India’s where education is concerned. I have been to schools where there is a single teacher for over 200 registered students. What teaching goes on there is for you to imagine.
I like the fact that you do not operate within boundaries, you have found your vocation …may you make a great difference.
