I was quoting the size of Indian economy from IMF.
As on RSS. I hate RSS too, and am neutral on Modi. But let us not blind ourselves for hate of Modi and RSS, to distort facts. India grew by 7.2% last year( again I am quoting from IMF). And 5.7% last quarter doesn't mean its performance will...
Chinese used to patrolled Doklam intermittently. India never had problems with that. Anyway, India too can patrol in Doklam on behalf of Bhutan, if invited, after all we are guarding Bhutanese borders. What India has problem is investing in infrastructure in that area that can be used by...
Kashmir doesn't only consist of Muslims, it has near 40% of population that is either Hindu, Sikh or Buddhists. Also Shia - Sunni divide is a big reality in the Kashmir. Kargil where majority are Shias, Muharram is organized with zest. Muharram has always been a problem in Sunni dominated 5...
Pakistan Cricket Board need to stop asking BCCI for just a Match. The prestige of PCB is at stake. Who keep on asking for a Match when the other party says it doesn't want to play.
As on the agreement, I don't think it is a proper MoU. Again in the 'MoU', there is a clause which says BCCI...
They were banned in the past because of Sunni Muslims. Nothing to do with 'Azadi'. This time the restriction are in Sunni dominated areas to curb Shia - Sunni clashes. On others areas, processions were held across Srinagar...
Demonetisation will not have permanent dampening effect on the economy. Yes, demonetisation, did reduce cash supply leading to increased illiquidity of the economy. So with cash supply increasing slowing, things should come to normal, though I agree demonetisation was one of the worst decision...
I was an investment banker once. So, I don't understand what do you mean by 'country let's itself to be a guinea pigs'. Bankers write reports to attract investors towards certain asset classes. So the banks future is at stake. So you cannot fa*t your way up. You have to have cogent reasons...
Useless prediction. I am hearing the same story from many that India will be in recession and India will falter since last 15 years. But India is growing by 7% on average since last 15 years. It grew from a 500 billion dollar economy to 2.5 trillion dollar economy in last 15 years.
As far as I know Pakistan still is looking at US. So, US will have its way with Pakistan. Anyway, $ 33 billion is 15 years is not a small amount. And why do India need economic aid from US? India's forex reserves are more than $400 billion. India is predicted to be top three economies by 2030.
There is a difference. Pakistan is an aid recipient country, while India is not. India is a huge military market, forget its consumer market for US corporate. While defense expenditure across the world is on decline, India is one of the very few countries that is projected to have a defense...
99% of corporate in India and across the world are involved in fraud in sometime or other. So I am not giving clean chit to NDTV. I am saying singling out NDTV looks like witch hunt.
Extremists and Extremism are on rise in BD , hence it make sense for Indians to avoid BD. I guess India is building a port in Myanmar, once complete, India can use Myanmar route for North East.
It may be that NDTV has profits suppressed to evade taxes...if NDTV could have done that so can other media house.
But in case of NDTV, government is on witch hunt, which is plainly wrong. You cannot have a press that agrees all the time with government.
Afghans hate foreign boots on their territory. India can train Afghans forces, provide military equipment, and economic assistance
Pakistan is paranoid about 'double squeeze'. It feared that Indian forces present on western front will create a double squeeze. Now, after India's explicit...
Let the NSG discuss both India and Pakistani applications. India will have no problem with both applications discussed thoroughly. Let the NSG membership be given on merit.
