Simple example of BHEL in Trichy. When the company was in its peak during 80s, the sum of salary earned by BHEL employees was more than the rest of the city.<br /><br /> The Township had more number of cars than the rest of the city. Had the enterprise just built the huge company and let the pressure of the employees on the Civic bodies, Trichy would have crashed in a day. Thanjavur road in Trichy would have been the Hosur Road of Bangalore. Real estate prices and cost of living would have ensured that, all non bhelites would have to vacate the city.<br /><br /> For that matter, every public sector enterprise[Trichy itself has OFT, HAPP, Railway GoldenRock Workshop, Bangalore has BEL,......] had the vision to build Townships of its own whose benefits were not known[atleast to me], before seeing what the IT sector has done to bangalore.<br /> >><br /><br /> <a href="http://thenathans.blogspot.com/2005/10/public-intelligence-private-ignorance.html">http://thenathans.blogspot.com/2005/10/public-intelligence-private-ignorance.html</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/18115774-113063728855483505?l=bheltrichy.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>bharathhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15798165053922000001noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18115774.post-1129885464703600152005-10-21T01:44:00.000-07:002005-10-21T02:04:24.706-07:00<a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4598/759/1600/welcome.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4598/759/320/welcome.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/18115774-112988546470360015?l=bheltrichy.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>bharathhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15798165053922000001noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18115774.post-1129885828053277832005-10-21T01:38:00.000-07:002005-10-21T02:10:28.056-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4598/759/1600/welcome2.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4598/759/320/welcome2.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/18115774-112988582805327783?l=bheltrichy.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>bharathhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15798165053922000001noreply@blogger.com0
