That night.
Indian media was excited.
Billions!
Such a large project landing in a border region so quickly; many Indians found it hard to accept. According to their common sense, hearing such news years later would be normal.
"Really landed?"
"They're already starting construction."
"I thought we'd have to wait at least a year before potentially discussing a result. When did we become so efficient here? Maybe I haven't woken up from an afternoon nap yet?"
"It's not Indian efficiency that's improved, but theirs."
"Exactly. I heard they were planning a city loan trial, but gave India only a month to consider. If not fast, this project wouldn't land with us."
"Wise people."
"It would be great if it were inland; looking at the renderings, that city looks gorgeous."
"Stop dreaming. You find it difficult to build a road, let alone a city? This project is Nagaland's own loan, not India's government. If you want it, ask your own state."
