One of the most important ( and expensive ) learning’s out of common wealth games experience has been that we should stop following China !!
We hoped to repeat the Beijing Olympic games at Common Wealth Games , and are very close to mess up with the much smaller games event than Olympic Games ( CWG )
It is time for our politicians to wake up and stop dreaming of making Mumbai like Shanghai or aping China in terms of double digit growth. India can never do a “China story”.
We tried to copy SEZ’s model from China , and today we know how many SEZ bidders have walked away from their signed deals for setting up SEZ’s
We have to come up with our indigenous model of growth rather than making references of China, and trying to bench mark our growth numbers with China’s milestones !
