(Article published in an Indian Weekly Newspaper The Sahara Times on 10th January 2004.)

The late 2003 State Assembly elections in India were fought on the Acronym - BSP - the Bijli, Sadak, Pani Issues. In India's National Language - Hindi, 'Bijli' means Electricity. 'Sadak' means Roads. 'Pani' means 'Water'. We hijack the same BSP acronym to explain a few broad trends affecting the IT Industry in India. We call these underlying events and trends individually as the 'B', 'S' and 'P' factors, collectively called the 'BSP' factors.

'Building Brand Bihar By Banishing Backwardness'
