This document discusses infrastructure development in India and its effects. It notes that infrastructure, including roads, rail, airports and more, grew by 5.1% in 2010. It outlines some key indicators of infrastructure growth such as increases in cargo handling, car sales, and cement production. Opportunities for investment from countries like Oman and South Korea are mentioned. Sustainable "green towns" are proposed as a way to continue infrastructure expansion while minimizing environmental impacts through practices like local sourcing, renewable energy, and water recycling.
