| According to an official report, City Business Guide
will focus on key centres including Delhi, Kolkata, Mumbai, Bangalore,
Ludhiana, Surat, Guwahati, Chennai, Jaipur and Cochin. The series
will give viewers an in-depth perspective on the way business is conducted
across the country.
Each guide will begin with a look at the history of business in
one trade centre before focusing on its status in the present day.
The programmes will also cover the infrastructure of the cities
and the various industries represented through interviews with key
local spokespersons. Travel links
and communication networks to and within each place will be examined,
along with the different cultures and the opportunities for entertainment
and leisure, added the release.
"BBC World always has new and interesting ways of conveying
the most important information on business and current affairs to
viewers," said BBC World Commissioning Editor Narendhra Morar.
"These 12 guides will be of particular interest to the business
community as well as anyone who wants to keep in touch with economic
issues," he added.
At the end of this special series in December, India Business Report
will bring together an eminent panel of guests to discuss and debate
the merits of each city and the contribution they make to India's
economic growth.
