INCREDIBLE INDIA: Infrastructure sizing is not thought through as long as money is mopped up

Sometimes I wonder where we all got it from. I believe that as a race nobody trivialises issues, concepts, ideas and acts, as we do. Disregard the dire consequences, we are able to trivialise everything, we are also able to trivialise the consequences and simply move on.
Go to any construction site and you would find a prominent sign board that says “hard hat zone”. If you ever wear the so-called “hard hat”, you would realise that it is anything but safe. But we do not stop there, the so-called hard hat, hardened with the callousness of centuries, has been innovatively modified so that women workers can carry bricks on top of their hard hats! Our faceless workers march toward their construction sites every morning, hard hat on head and sometimes in hand, in their undernourishment, somewhat legitimate in the state of their human displacement.
The other day I saw a large piece of disputed land getting cleared up. Such a development signals a fresh partnership between a politician, a criminal and a builder. It has one more step to go before a mall or a multi-storey building would come up on the spot.
A few days later, the intermediate step unfolds itself, a giant wheel appears, the place gets filled with fairground equipment and food stalls.
