Gurgaon, a thriving industrialized city was barely known twenty years before. Due to many reasons, one being its close proximity to the national capital, Gurgaon has developed tremendously in the past 2 decades. It is now littered with swanky malls, expansive golf courses and showrooms of world famous brands such as Gucci and Louis Vuitton. BMWs and Mercedes-Benzes glisten in automobile outlets. Apartment buildings sprout endlessly like concrete wildflowers, and a high-tech commercial center by the name Cyber City is home to some of the most reputed conglomerates in the world. With its glossy high-rises and high-flying economy, Gurgaon is often seen as the representation of a Rising India. Yet it also portrays an enigma: how can a new metropolitan be a global economic engine?
