The Pioneer > Home: "This is the era of Mr Sreedharan. He is a hero, a role model, a model who shows it by doing, not acting. He is 73 and still in great demand everywhere. They want him eternally in Delhi. They want him in every other city fired by some sort of metro craze. Bangalore, Hyderabad, Chennai, Kochi, every city is waiting for Mr Sreedharan. Kolkata took 22 years to build 17 kilometres of metro. That was when Mr Sreedharan was not around."
