Gurgaon is a "Good-Gaon" of India Now

Gurgaon is a city in India which literally means "sweet village". I have started commuting to Gurgaon from last few days because I got a job here. But I stay in West Delhi and daily travel 2-3 hours from Delhi to Gurgaon and see every small detail while traveling. To see core India one has to travel from small streets of these kinds of cities in India.

I was saying that Gurgaon means sweet village but it’s no more a village after rapid industrialization. Gurgaon is a hub for major IT companies of India and various multinational companies. When people talk about Gurgaon of 5-6 years back they say it was a land full of greens and goats. At that time very few companies have made their offices in Gurgaon and development was very slow. After few more companies ventured in Gurgaon government of India started improving the public utilities in order to encourage people commute easily for their jobs.

My office is near Khandsa village & close to Delhi-Jaipur highway. It is very difficult to reach to my office through public transports but government is working towards starting bus facilities through main bus stations in Gurgaon. I am using company’s cab to travel to my office right now and most of the companies in Gurgaon provide cab facility due to public transport problems.

When I was not been to Gurgaon, I use to think that it will be some Indian village with agriculture and cultivation as main business, but when I came here and spoke with the people here, I got to know the clear past of Gurgaon. Just because the term “gaon” is included in its name people think that it must be some village (“gaon” in Hindi means village), but it is a fully developed city. Metro line is also being constructed from Delhi to Gurgaon.

I would like to tell this to people staying in different parts of the India and world that if they are getting any opportunity to come to Gurgaon please do not reject that. You will definitely miss to see the decent and developed part of India.
