China patiently invested capital, skill and technology in coal gasification. Unlike it, we won’t move from words to action. As crude prices decline, we lose interest.
A loose compilation of unrelated observations about Noida masquerading as an ”article”. I lived in Noida from 2009-2020 and saw the region experiencing a growth spurt. I’m quite familiar with what’s on offer but these were/are true about other places like Gurugram, Faridabad too. What you have sorely missed are some of the huge advantages – planned sectors, (relatively) better roads than other two suburbs, tonnes of greenery -really good parks and trees on traffic islands and medians. A key negative is there is no defined city center that any true city should have where citizens can go without a commercial transaction – but then gurgaon and faridabad don’t have it either. What noida does have is relatively better connectivity to central delhi such as Connaught Place and India gate by road and metro and that gets you to all the art, culture and even more greenery very quickly. This is not journalism, it is just saying something for the sake of saying it.
Well-written article except that “Stilt” Parking has been referred to as “Stilled” Parking multiple times. STILT parking is where the ground floor is left empty for parking with just free-standing stilt columns supporting the structure above. My observation from the last 20 years is that solid-waste (garbage) management has deteriorated all over Noida & it is much more difficult now for ordinary citizens to deal with bureaucracy at the NOIDA authority by themselves without an “agent”. Compared to Delhi, there is a definite lack of FREE public spaces in Noida (and in Gurgaon/other suburbs) like parks & gardens & cultural institutions/ galleries/ museums etc. available to citizens of all economic classes. Crime across the entire Delhi-NCR region including Delhi, Gurgaon, Noida, Ghaziabad, Faridabad etc. remains uniformly high. Electricity & water issues in Delhi improved significantly in the early 2000’s and has remained at about the same level across the entire Delhi-NCR region since then. Delhi & Noida always had better urban planning than Gurgaon that was “developed” in a rapid uncontrolled way by private builders and therefore has no proper sewage system & does have huge issues with stormwater management/flooding.
Absolute nonsense. Sir, Please tell me if any of these problems don’t exist in Delhi itself, or in Faridabad or Gurgaon. In fact, all these exists ten times in Delhi. I feel 80 percent of Delhi lives in unauthorised regularised colonies, not worth human living. 100 percent or atleast 80 covered area and FAR above 5. Sir, I request the authors to please visit colonies in Delhi that are outside DDA and which have come up in the last 50 years. Noida s problem are smaller in scale than Delhi colonies.
