Dear Readers,
Greetings for your financial year 2010-11... At the outset, let me wish this year brings to all of us great business, fame & wealth, with wisdom to conduct absolutely fair business and contribute to the balance of nature.

We are all very lucky in this age, that we live in India. Never before in history, has India made so rapid progress as these last 25 years. Economists say that this growth story will continue at least for the next 25 years. If you have ever observed, India's growth story is very different from that of the other developed nations. Today's developed nations, when they came up and became rich and advanced; it was due to the contribution of a few people. Whereas for us, while we are developing, we have a great contribution from a huge middle class because of their sheer hard work and time involvement.

We are in the middle of a transition phase in India and are experiencing the labour of change. All the big difference of developing years that we had been talking about between developed countries and India is reducing in front of our eyes now. What the developed nations had achieved in their initial 100 developing years, India has achieved in last 25 years. Now, we are not behind 50 years from any nation, we are behind may be just 10 years of a majority and not more than 25 years from the most developed rest. But, here, we have an advantage. We have better and bigger work force, and our traditions are deep rooted. Our development, barring from a few sectors and a few people, is solid.

But, I have only one fear. It is regarding the sincerity and loyalty of our people - not as patriots, but inside the country, as citizens. Do we really take individual responsibility to contribute to the development of India or wait for our government to force us to do so? Do we realise how much faster we can grow if all of us stop our contribution to corruption? Can we imagine how much better India can be if we stop all illegal deals and transactions? Isn't it true that if we take up social responsibility along with the government, there would be very less difference between rich and poor? Then, my friends, we will be truly developed.

For this, we need to stick to our roots. We need to do fair business. We need to remain absolutely loyal to our work and job. We need to be compassionate and feel sensitive to the underprivileged. We need to take responsibility of our actions. We need to behave as a family member of a family of Indian citizens.

This issue on water treatment reminds me of a company which dumped polluted or untreated waste water in a 'reverse borewell', and a company which instructed its employees to use such waste water into the boiler. Are we helping any Indian development? The first one was responsible for an entire nearby village to drink harmful and coloured water from wells, and the later one for boiler explosion because of choked pipes. How can someone forgive them? The issue of pre-treatment and post-treatment of water in a Boiler system is very important. This issue covers that part.

Let wisdom prevail upon all of us to do what is just, fair, and moral. All the best...

All the best...
Yours sincerely,
Dharmendra Joshi
