QUOTE Meanwhile, I got a letter from Manohar Parrikar, CM of Goa and I thought it would be great to work with an IIT graduate. So I went there....Yes, he was very dynamic; but probably too dynamic. His problem was that he was the talati, tehsildar, collector, secretary, minister and the chief minister rolled in one. So very little actually got done. There were a lot of projects planned such as widening of highways, shifting the airport, housing projects, etc.; but very few decisions were taken. Moreover, while the State itself was the size of a large district, it had four government corporations dealing with industry; but very little industry to deal with! And then, everybody used sleep in the afternoon. I too had a lovely bungalow overlooking the sea and was getting into the habit of sleeping. Then, I got a call from CM Sushil Kumar Shinde asking me to handle the MIHAN (Multimodal International Passenger & Cargo Hub at Nagpur) project and was ready to leave. -- R. C.
