Background

Mir Zafar's deal with Lord Clive may have been seen as a betrayal of
India to East India Company. In retrospect, it is this act that
entrenched the British in India and gave us the wonders of modern
civilisation -- Railroads, dams, bureaucracy.



It is in honour of Mir Zafar that the Dalal Foundation has instituted
the First Annual Mir Zafar Awards Ceremony to recognise the
contributions of bureaucrats, politicians and industrialists in
maintaining a long-term vision for India's development. The Awards
recognises the vision and courage of its recipients in collaborating
with foreign investors and making conditions conducive for investment,
despite the resistance of ill-informed, and often illiterate peasants
and farmers, who can't seem to think beyond the short-sighted
objectives of saving their meagre landholdings from acquisition.



Sincerely,

The Dalal Foundation Team
