Who has worked on improving India's Infrastructure - Congress-led UPA or BJP-led NDA? Some Facts Monday, 4th May 2009

Dear Friend,

I hope you have had a chance to glance through some recent documents that I sent you earlier.

Today I wanted to reach out to you today regarding infrastructure. The BJP has recently released an "Infrastructure Vision", which list out a number of recycled ideas for India's infrastructure. The BJP has alleged that "the UPA rule has proved to be a disaster for infrastructure development".

Once again, the BJP is providing blatant untruths in order to mislead you, as it has little to show for its own performance when in power.

The document in the attached link puts forward some facts that show how the Congress-led UPA government outperformed the BJP-led NDA government in every sphere of infrastructure development.

Who has worked on improving India's Infrastructure - Congress-led UPA or BJP-led NDA? Some Facts: http://www.congress.org.in/infrastructure.pdf

You will notice that the UPA has invested almost 80% more on infrastructure than the NDA did. The UPA has shown far better results across infrastructure sectors, such as telecom, power, roads and ports.

Once again, I hope you will note that the facts speak for themselves.

Please feel free to share both these documents with others, in order to generate informed discussion and decision-making.
