Charu Gupta : I'm an avid traveler! I live in Pune city but every chance I get, I get on my pulsar and take off!!!Irked by frequent power cuts??

Looking at the current errant situations in the State of Maharashtra, where power cuts are more regular than your local trains what could be worst than this!! The tiff over two powerful companies has taken a toll on our cities, soft target being our suburban cities.

What does a citizen ask for? What are the things that he needs the most??Well….at least in the summers we need electricity 24/7….I bet nobody would disagree with me on this!!



So why is the common man suffering? Why cant we have a government or a private sector promising us with the basic requirements like water, electricity etc…?


I guess we need more systematized cities where much preference is given to the basic requirements of a human being. We need cities that are built on the basis of how we live today. One such well organized city that awed me is Lavasa.


Lavasa

Lavasa

Infrastructural Planning at Lavasa is built on a foundation of sound infrastructure so that residents have access to the world class roads, water, energy & waste management. The whole concept of Lavasa, where the use of Biomimicry, well planned township, energy & waste management is truly needful in the times to come !!

Check out what Lavasa has planned in for the future!!

Talking about an article related to the trends visible in the budget, it tried to make things clear that the financial discretion would be balanced with growth incentives and that private-public partnerships would have much greater role to play in the economic development of the country. As of now we can see the changes happening.

Prime Minister had cautioned that the growth story cannot be taken for granted and that it would depend gravely on the expansion of infrastructure in which caution is necessary, given the buoyancy of several manufacturing companies in growing.
Today, the demand for employment is back, real estate is up and banks are full with customer accounts. No sulking over recession anymore. Private sectors seem to take the investments and risks associated with infrastructure and given that this is what the government wants more, the stupor in making things easier for these projects to materialize.
One such example is the Metropolitan Infrastructure sector, also to mention city developments like Lavasa in Maharashtra. Lavasa have come up with these special economic zones from the fact that these developments offer total living concept with assured water, power, waste management and leisure activities. This is for the people of today who are demanding for more. People are willing to spare money for better urban living. This is an opportunity to direct funds into a better infrastructure. For sure, in the next two decades the demand for better living is going to be high.
Governments need professional help on building a better infrastructure for tomorrow. Also these private sectors need to introduce waste management plans and technologies to public bodies.

Soon we could start seeing changes from cities to cities such as Lavasa near Pune!!
In a few years we could see more such improvement in several cities leading in India!!
