We all believe that to promote industry and private enterprise we need better governance and less corruption oriented regulation. Instead of implementing these two conditions all over India, in the name of improving investment opportunities in some select areas SEZs are created using the successful Chinese model. But India is not China which all of us know. We need our own development model and SEZ is not good for India. As it is we have islands of prosperity surrounded by oceans of poverty which we should try to correct. Instead we are taking just the opposite strategy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
