About this listen
India’s cities, once symbols of ambition, are now choking under filth, traffic and civic neglect. The solution will not come from politics but from enterprise. A “Clean Cities Compact” could unite business groups, local chambers and civic volunteers under a common banner to fund pilot projects, benchmark urban performance and publicly rate municipalities.
City leadership awards and transparent audits, modelled on corporate disclosure standards, could shame or celebrate performance. The aim is not to replace government but to compel it to function, backed by business skill and sustained public pressure. Only then can India’s cities become places where people wish to live, not merely work.
The attached podcast explains.
