wow, great piece, i studied in Delhi (LSR, JNU) in the 70s after which i left India for a number of years. Whenever i return to Delhi now i'm astounded at how monstrous its become, and ruthless Gurgaon! i particularly appreciated your expose of how and why it came into being--
While i don't hold much brief for the angst of the Englsh-speaking elites it IS scary to think of the kind of business mentality that has taken over...its a petty provincialism that's global in its reach...being replicated in many cities around the world i'm sure.
The poor Ethiopians! They haven't a clue of the rough beast slouching their way.
