The Honorable Prime Minister Modi of India,

I believe that 21 century starts with new things, applicable to India, one outlined here from my efforts planned, that is from a strongly moved pass out of IIT Kanpur 75, alas no longer a citizen, but still deeply impressed by you and believer that you will be Indian Moses -

Before reading on, please watch this. Amsterdam plan ideas are listed.

City use of Beacons

Here is my data
1. India has huge number of mobiles
2. India has huge number of programmers
3. Indian labor costs are very low.
4. Beacons are very cheap to make – say Rs100. Becoming fully beacon-ed city for Delhi is under a crore.
5. El cheapo batteries can power beacons for 1 year! A worker can change 300*8*5=12000 beacons per year. Dept of 10 for a large city.

So what?
1. Govt. Puts in one lakh beacon in all large cities.
2. People will make apps for free distributed, funded by advertisements.
3. Most people can get info free.
4. Doing it all significant cities is trivial.
5. Typical politicians CAN'T think of this use. Any citizen can wait at a bus stop and learn when and where bus arrives and goes from his phone! Per citizen extra cost 0. Making cost – marginal!

You have illustrious Nandan Nilekani to give preliminary opinion.

I request colleage who understand and approve to say that to Sri Baldev
I request Sri Baldev to pass it on, perhaps through a well-appointed colleague
Personally consider it like internet in USA by Sir VP (he did not)
