Will History Repeat again along with another dream project of Parikar? (The bureaucracy, led by chief secretary Dev Singh Negi, seemed to fully support his effort. Here is a snapshot of Mr Parrikar’s many initiatives. Skybus Project: Mr Parrikar has the courage to back the Skybus (a dream project of Konkan Railway Corporation’s Managing Director B Rajaram) when states that need it more are reluctant to do so. He firmly believes that Mr Rajaram must be given the opportunity to test what will be a global first. Mr Parrikar earmarked a mere Rs 50 lakh for the Skybus pilot project, but a large group of companies have chipped in with free inputs to help realise the dream. If the 1.6 kilometre pilot run is successful, Skybus will see a worldwide demand as an economical and extremely feasible mass transport project that is entirely ‘Made in India’. KRC hopes to reciprocate Mr Parrikar’s faith by converting the Madgaon site, which is a joint venture with the Goa government, into a revenue-generating Global Research and Development Centre and testing facility.) sources suchetadalal/?id=e5d20be8-7473-a860-492e8cec7765&base=sub_sections_content&f&t=The+Quiet+Success+Story+(1+Dec+2003)
