They call Gurgaon, a little corner of America in the heartland of Haryana. With names of buildings right out of New York, the administration of this suburb are all but luring NRIs in their midst.
A self-sustaining and self-contained community was what NRI Snehil Gambhir desired when he moved to ‘The Laburnum’ in Gurgaon two years ago. He’s very happy with his choice of Gurgaon and says, “We tend to create our own little island of what we think is important to us.”
Outside the comfortable world of the Gambhirs is Lukmaan Khan’s shop. Khan supplies chicken to the residents of the skyscrapers but despite this, fears that he may be removed from his dwelling some day. He hopes for peaceful coexistence with the residents of the high towers.
