Mukesh Ambani didn't learn

Saturday's Delhi The ToI carried a small news on how Mukesh's SEZ project has hit the wall with SC declining to extend the land acquition deadline for his company. What caught my imagination are two things...one being a negative news from business perspective, how The ToI has quiently placed it in an obscure manner...good PR (Some are friends...:) and more importantly, Mukesh has not taken any learning from The Tata fiasco with their Nano project in West Bengal. He tried to acquire farming land and not non-farming land from farmers. Today, money can't buy you everything...the farmer community is increasingly becoming empowered and knowledgeable and more importantly Reliance still seems to belive that it can bull doze its way with all the resources available. Sorry this is the age of Inclusive Approach....which our Hon. PM and Rahul Gandhi has understood. Hope next attempts will be more realistic...
