There are some fundamental changes that need to be brought about in matters relating to the state of affairs in the Indian government. Everyone agrees the change is happening but the pace at which it is happening is slow and at times as decrepit as the people who run the government. The fresh blood that is enthused into the system might be able to change a few things, but it is too little. I have heard arguments, "slow and steady wins the race", "this is how India works". The daft pricks don't realize the need of the hour to reach out and take a step to make reforms when they are possible and move towards a better governance and legislature.
The little good that is happening and the projects that are coming up are because there is a stiff opposition and a very healthy competition in the political system. The way things are looking though, that competition might be easily washed away in the turmoil and the aggrandized egos. The opportunity would be lost to make amends to the ailing democracy and bring in a change that would foster a healthy system for the coming years.

again...not all projects are a step in the right direction.
For example, the Tagore circle underpass in Jayanagar, taken up by the Central government under JNNURM(Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission) is a sham. The flow of traffic is perfect there...no problems at all. None of the residents even want the project in the first place!
Its merely another way to embezzle funds...funds obtained from milking dry, the honest taxpayer.
And all the trees that are going to be chopped down....god save bangalore!
