Today Information Technology is not just a wealth creation tool for India. As we see, the contributors to it are from the diverse linguistic and geographical regions, it is flowing through the veins of nation. And that is why the more and more overseas companies are coming here. I said people from diverse background are contributing to it, but I am very sad to say IT has not reached to the geographically remote locations. As we know, IT can grow independent of the accessibility (in geographical sense), it should have reached to the at least district places. In simple language, 'the fruits of the IT have reached to the villages but not the trees of fruits'. Government is trying in that direction but many questions about the basic infrastructure are unattained. Take an example of an organization in Aurangabad, Maharashtra , two years back a software company faced a great loss just because of the unstable electricity in the region. IT don't need the abundant highways like the manufacturing industry, basic communication facilities can help to the great extent. The point is that government should act in a direction to the improve the basic infrastructure in these areas. We have seen IT changing the faces of many cities like Pune and Hyderabad. Let it now change the whole India! Government should not only concentrate on IT but also the other industries like manufacturing, textile, food processing and other so that we get the customers for the IT industry here itself. And also these are the industries which need more human resource, thus we may get good employement opportunities for such remote regions. Let the Indian It industry be self sustaining i.e. servising our own customers (will take a lot time, but can dream of it) . Let my generation see the 'Trees of IT industry fruits reach to the village', let this paperless industry change face of my 'Rural India' (True India). I will call all this as 'Decentralization of IT' ( inspired by term 'Decentralization of power' which I learn't in my school).
Yes.Government must take care of such basic needs
of the IT industry.I have quoted an example about
a industry A'bad, that says the whole story.thanks
for ur comment.
IT sector is full of unpredictability and is prone
to market changes.So they can't risk themselves by
setting up offices at places where infrastructural
facilities are not good.So government should take
measure to set up proper infrastructural
facilities to so that IT companies can plan of
setting up their office at these places.
