Development
Alternatives - India
In India,
the important issues are the following, ranked by importance:
- population
- transportation
- large share of public transport
- health
- water
- legislation/enforcement
- zoning/planning
- air pollutants
- sewage
- landfills
The main problem is the migration of rural
population to the cities for jobs. This puts strain on the
infrastructure (water, electricity, communication), health, education,
jobs, law and order, food distribution system, governance, housing,
etc. In a nutshell the root cause of all evils is the growing
population. Unless these amenities are provided in the rural
sector the migration will not stop. An important aspect in this
regard is the creation of satellite townships near the
big cities and a shift to them to reduce the burden on the city
centre.
