India - Try Try Touch the Sky!
Even though the BJP goverment was stumped for its slogan ‘India Shining’, the reality is India is indeed Shining. This month CNN is running a special report called ‘Eye on India’. It might seem like Singh government has done something spectacular in the last 100 days, but the BJP govmt created the momentum.
CNN Special Report ‘Eye on India’
The Domestic Airlines Industry is booming like a rocket. Deccan airlines recently announced a Rs.500 ticket from Delhi to Mumbai. Thats less than $15. Even less than what one would have to pay to take a taxi from Mumbai airport to downtown. I hope these competitions are not deceiving. (I wonder how they could slash prices so low and still make money out it) Neverthless, they are giving people real options to think about travel and tourism.
The media industry veiled by the glamour of bollywood is running HOT as well with more and more programming channels popping up Zoom, the latest addition is targeted towards ‘metrosexuals’…the keyword that epitomizes the Indian youth (payed heftly, thanks to US BPO Market!). Zoom also promises to stay away from the MIL-DIL soaps by offering more content on lifestyle, fashion and music. Recent changes in the govt policies for media industry, including the “Industry” status to Film sector, has sparked the growth.
If the UPA govt promise to focus on the poor remains to be achieved, there is hope for everyone and the country to touch the sky!.
