There is no more pure joy than RailFanning.

P.S.K ji.........yahin pe saari problem aati hey..........if the Govt. instead of having a "Budget Deficit" has a "Surplus",it will be loaded with a lot of "Cash" which then it can spend on "Social Sector" be it - Education,Health or Infrastructure.......at time govt. run projects surpass their "Allocated time period" which in return raises the "Costs" and lead to "higher gestation period" which makes it even harder to recover the money that has been put in and if there is a slowdown of the Economy worldwide and rising inflation and lending rates go up then it puts the projects in even more trouble.

on the other side,Govt. has to do something so instead of doing it on it's own.....they simply invite "Private Sector players" into the scene which could be either "Domestic" or "Foreign" and even there we have seen that "Domestic Private sector" players dilute their stake and offer it to a "Foreign Entity" who specialize in a particular field.........and at the end as you said - "IT LEADS TO HIGHER COSTS".I think - In a century or two........India would be a lot more "Capitalistic" in nature and might do what the Americans are doing......Policies will be designed in such a way that it helps the "Big Corporations" to make as much money as possible".
