If there could be a Henry Ford there is also a Ratan Tata.
The launch of the Tata Nano has bought a new meaning to cheap and effective travelling. The car costing around one lakh has made the possibility of owning a car for the Aam Aadmi, inspired by the scene of an Indian Family of four travelling on a bike which is unsafe and risky. Ratan Tata discussed this with his colleagues and around 500 engineers and designers started to work on the car in terms of safety and efficiency.
The critics seem to be having a field day with their allegations. They say that the250, 000 odd cars Tata plans on selling cars every year which will in turn have a an adverse effect on the environment but it is a very small figure amongst the millions of other cars produced in India. They also claim that the car is very unsafe for Indian roads; no owners of the Nano are going to Zip on highways or even have a drag. At the end of the day we have to remember that the Nano is here to give safety and comfort to the lower middle class family who use motorcycles.
Many tests have been conducted to prove the reliability of the car and the verdict, Nano is a safe and environment friendly car. If people are so worried about the environment then there must be an equal amount of enforcement by the government on other cars. Why target the Nano?
We see so Many youngsters nowadays zipping around in their modified cars. Whats wrong if Ratan Tata wanted to make a car so that the common man could travel comfortably. This is one reason Indian entrepreneurs never do well, not because of their vision but of because the number of critics waiting to pounce at them. In the latest many foreign companies are looking forward to make cars like the Nano. I feel that Ratan Tata should be applauded for his noble contribution and people like him are who make India proud.
