India – A Superpower in the Making? - The Real Truth

[Indus Pakistan]

India already is a superpower. Time accepted this harsh fact. Reason?

Nearly 1.3 billion people.

India already is a superpower. Time accepted this harsh fact. Reason?

Nearly 1.3 billion people.

Also the 7th largest country in the world, 4th largest military and 7th biggest economy of the world

 

[SrNair]

The rise of this growing nation will change the balance of power in Asia—and potentially the world.
With nearly 1.1 billion inhabitants, India is the second largest country on earth in population, and seventh largest in geographical area, over 1.1 million square miles. This is almost 1,000 people for every square mile of area nationwide—much denser than even China.

Since achieving independence from British rule in 1947, it has seen its share of conflict, struggle and setbacks. Although India still faces many challenges, it is now poised to reach a higher position on the world scene than at any previous time.

The Indian economy has grown an average of around 6% annually over the past decade and 8% per year over the past three years—among the fastest rates in the world. It boasts an emerging middle class and increasing gross domestic product, exports, employment and foreign investment. This is complemented by a roaring stock market (index value up by a third in 2005 and by 200% since 2001), low external debt and large foreign exchange reserves.

Recent visits from leaders and officials from the United States, France, Germany and Russia have spotlighted India’s rise. These wealthier nations see India as a trading partner with enormous potential.

Although it has not yet matched the financial performance of China—currently the fastest-growing economy in the world—according to some analysts, India shows even more long-term potential for rapid growth. Leaders from both nations have discussed the creation of a Chinese-Indian common market based on the European Union model. Although only an idea at present, if realized, it would be the largest economic system in the world, home for about 2.5 billion consumers—almost 40% of the human race (or 3 of every 8 people on earth)!

India’s growth becomes more impressive in light of the fact that it is driven by a fraction of its population. Much of the nation remains a picture of rural poverty. Nearly all foreign investment in India goes to its six most urban states, with 22 other less developed states virtually ignored. This gap between city and country is keenly felt in places such as Gurgaon, a suburb of the Indian capital New Delhi: “In a land still plagued by deep poverty and backwardness, Gurgaon has become a renowned home of international call centers, business-processing operations, and information-technology firms. There are gleaming, glass-paned high-tech towers, condominium blocks, multiplexes, and shopping malls, where Indians dine at Ruby Tuesday, browse for Samsung electronics, or kick the tires at a Toyota, Ford, or Chevy dealer. If one overlooks the dusty pockets of poverty nearby, a few water buffaloes picking at garbage near shantytowns, the look is more Southern California office park than the India of yore” (U.S. News and World Report).

Despite the problems seen in India’s underdeveloped countryside—for example, massive unmet infrastructure needs; more illiterate citizens than any other single nation—there are several areas in which the nation excels. These particular specialized talents have allowed a tiny percentage of the populace—perhaps less than 1%—to spearhead its move toward a higher standing in the world order.

Intellectual Capital

India’s economy is divided between agriculture (which accounts for a quarter of the gross national product), manufacturing (constituting another quarter) and the high-tech service sector, which now makes up fully half of the gross national product. Striving to become a “knowledge superpower,” it hopes to skip the intermediate step of industrial development that has preceded other nations’ march into the Information Age.

Scientific and information technology companies from around the world are opening research and development labs in India—more than 100 in the past five years. One mainstay of the new economy is software development, with ever more global firms outsourcing to India the time-intensive work of programming. Businesses worldwide also rely on the country for customer service—phone calls from around the world are directed to call centers in Indian cities such as Bangalore. Other developing markets include pharmaceutical and biotechnology research. Currently, the majority of top American companies send some of their IT work to India, and there is little evidence of a slowdown in this trend.

The business world is also looking in India’s direction. Graduates of the nation’s business programs are in high demand among multinational corporations, with each graduating class commanding a higher average salary than the one before. Those who complete MBA degrees at schools such as the Indian Institute of Management can now expect starting salaries ranging from $75,000 (USD) at Indian firms to over $200,000 outside the country. This is comparable to graduates of top American business schools such as Harvard, Stanford and Dartmouth—testimony to the market value of Indian talent in this area of study.

Military Buildup

As its clout has grown, India has placed a high priority on improving its military capabilities as well.

New Delhi has not joined 187 other nations in signing the Nuclear Non-proliferation Treaty (NPT), and appeared on the world’s radar screen as a nuclear-armed nation in May 1998, with the detonation of five warheads in the desert near the border of Pakistan. This disturbed many governments around the globe, naturally including that of Pakistan, which responded with nuclear tests of its own.

This stand-off was the turning point that began India’s pursuit of a full-fledged nuclear weapons program. According to The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, additional nuclear missile tests occurred in the summer of 2004; since then, the Indian Defense Ministry has earmarked $2 billion annually to build 300 to 400 weapons over the next 5 to 7 years.

India maintains a “no first strike” nuclear policy, and asserts that it only seeks enough nuclear weaponry to effectively deter aggressors. U.S. President George W. Bush, during a March 2006 visit with Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, announced cooperation between the two countries on civilian nuclear programs, and had previously called India a “responsible” nuclear nation (Der Spiegel). These measures drew an American diplomatic line between India and other nations that have nixed participation in the NPT, such as North Korea and Iran.

Whatever its nuclear aspirations, the country has a long military shopping list. Last year, it announced plans to build the first aircraft carrier ever put to sea by a developing nation, and to lease two nuclear submarines from Russia. America has openly discussed the sale of naval vessels, combat aircraft, patrol aircraft and helicopters to India. One former U.S. ambassador to India opined, “Of course we should sell advanced weaponry to India. The million-man Indian army actually fights, unlike the post-modern militaries of many of our European allies” (The Economist).

A Turning Point in Relations With China?

Many have compared India’s pattern of growth to its neighbor, China. The countries have much in common—physical borders, immense populations, similar challenges, ancient civilizations, and quickly-rising economies. India also measures itself against China, coveting its economic power and international standing, including its permanent seat on the United Nations Security Council.

Though a degree of tension does remain between the two nations, with lingering memories of the brief 1962 war in which China soundly defeated India, the relationship between these two Asian giants is warming up. Trade between them is now increasing at a vigorous pace, and diplomatic relations are at a post-1962 highpoint. Chinese Prime Minister Wen Jiabao, during a recent visit to New Delhi, hailed cooperation between the two nations as the driving force of a new “Asian Century.” Indian Prime Minister Singh spoke of the potential for India and China to rearrange the world order by working together.

Many have pointed out that their economic strengths seem to be tailor-made for a partnership. India seeks to be a major player in the computer software world in the same way that China is in the area of hardware. Cooperation between Beijing and New Delhi could prove a dominant force in the information technology market.

Both nations have a voracious appetite for natural resources, and a recent energy deal neatly symbolized the new Sino-Indian dynamic: India acquired a 20% share in the development of the largest onshore oil field in Iran. The venture happens to be operated, and 50% owned, by Sinopec—China’s state-run oil company.

However, India could seek to undercut China’s manufacturing prices (as China did with many Southeast Asian countries in the 1990s). But it is more likely to pursue a different segment of the world market by producing higher-quality goods, as well as entirely different products.

Time will tell exactly how the relationship will mix competition and cooperation. These two nations both aspire to “first-world” status—and economic gains could be the incentive for a more tightly allied Asia.

Between East and West

With its newfound power, India faces a dilemma: Should it ultimately pursue closer ties with Western nations, or with other Asian countries?

After India gained independence, its first prime minister spoke of an Asian renaissance, envisioning a tightly bound continent changing the post-World War II landscape. Though premature at the time, the idea is now more feasible than any time since the Cold War era. Along with the improving relations with China, India is also friendly with Russia and Japan. And, as of 2004, the value of India’s trade with other Asian nations surpassed that of exchange with the United States and Western Europe put together (International Herald Tribune).

But the United States—after courting India’s arch-rival Pakistan as an ally in the war on terror after the September 11 attacks—is now distancing itself somewhat from the current Islamabad regime led by Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf, focusing on India instead. India’s common ground with the U.S. includes liberal democratic government, capitalism and, among the more educated urban residents, the English language.

However, America’s courting of India is viewed by some as a way to limit and contain Chinese influence in Asia. Some Indians resent this perception of their nation as a pawn of the U.S. Though they appreciate the American lifestyle and culture, much of the Indian population still sees this lone superpower as a bully.

While it may be able to dance with both partners alternately for a while, India will eventually be forced to choose. Which way will this nation turn?

“Kings of the East”

We need not merely guess where world events will ultimately lead. While many of the details remain to be seen, the overall framework of the future has been recorded in advance in one book—the Holy Bible.

In nations such as India, the size of population alone pulls them toward superpower status. Bible prophecy describes global power blocs—superpowers, or groups of superpowers—that will be prominent at the end of the age, shortly before Jesus Christ returns.

These powers will be based in the north (Europe), the south (the Arab world), and the “kings of the East”—a group of Asian nations that will band together, eventually fielding a standing army of two hundred million (Rev. 16:12; 9:16; Dan. 11)!

The nations of the West, including the United States, are headed for hard times as a result of their national and personal sins against the God that inspired the Bible. He reveals that they will be forsaken by their allies, called “lovers” in Scripture:

“And when you are spoiled, what will you do? Though you clothe yourself with crimson, though you deck yourself with ornaments of gold, though you rend your face with painting, in vain shall you make yourself fair; your lovers will despise you, they will seek your life…All your lovers have forgotten you; they seek you not; for I have wounded you with the wound of an enemy, with the chastisement of a cruel one, for the multitude of your iniquity; because your sins were increased” (Jer. 4:30; 30:14).

India is today one of these “lovers,” but one that will soon prove to be something very different. So will other nations that Western countries now consider to be allies.

Keep watching India’s growth toward superpower status—just one part of the inevitable rise of Asia!

Let me give you points and then we can discuss :
1. Slavery was born under British Rule, not because of democracy.
2. India doesn't have slaves, what you are referring is human trafficking which is mostly done by gangsters.
3. Govt of India doesn't force its people to work against their will, heck we have more rights than your country, you don't even know properly what happened after the panama leaks, merely stating it as a western propaganda, let alone a free media.
4. We are 1.2 billion people, each thinks in its own way to serve its country. We dont believe only a single party with only their own mindset has the right to run the country, everyone must be given a chance.
5. Unlike China, Indian army swear allegiance to the nation and its people, not to a party.
6. Unlike China, we don't use firewall to keep people in the dark and blocking magazines stating western propaganda.
7. Unlike China, Govt of India cannot even grab a land from the farmer, recent being the Singoor case.
I haven't even gone to the details of forming the government, election, and other stuff
There are lots and lots of it I can keep adding, don't take this as a way of disrespecting you or your country. You and your people do what suits best for your country, we do whats best for ours.

Keep reason and restraint, I'm just stating the facts about the 18000000 slaves, you can Google. Don't need me to provide a link. China is a country with high intelligence, we are accustomed to logical reasoning... Now let me use logical reasoning.
1, No matter how the 18000000 slaves were produced, but it is still the fact that the objective existence of India. India still keeps a large number of slaves.
2,The Chinese government will not force people to do anything against their will, We have enough power to report more officials and get them into prison. And I do not know that India officials will be arrested for reporting the matter, you know? Similarly, Chinese police are more modest than the India police, will not ask for bribes. You can't understand?
3,We are 1.3 billion people, the territory of 960 thousand square kilometers of land, 56 ethnic Groups of China, Eeach person has a different view, every inch of land have different things.It is impossible to solve all the things in a way, so, China is more inclusive, which is the reason for the rapid rise of china.
4, the same, the Chinese army is also loyal to the country and the people, but to accept the command of CCP, so we are more efficient. Does not appear 2010-2013 years, there are 30 aircraft crash.
5,Tiananmen incident in 1989, forcing the Chinese government to use the firewall. But in fact, China has only twitter, Facebook and YouTube Shield ... India times, India defense forum, BBC... Almost all foreign websites. Chinese people in China are free to visit.
6,Again, China does not have 1500 farmers committed suicide every year. We sell the land to the government in exchange for high subsidies. Many farmers are so rich.

About the composition and election of the government, Chinese is very clear, but the Indians are not clear, the election in India is full of formalism, from successful democracy.
Yes, I do not want to continue to add, India a lot of things to make me feel sad, I do not want to use the pain of the people of India to answer you.
I think it would be awkward to tell you the truth about India, or unlock your lies, but more important is that... I really will be sad. I think, perhaps I am the most sympathetic to the members of the India people.

I really don't want to provide a link to the truth of India... If you want to see it, I can...

 

[Srinivas]

No country can enjoy the status of "Super Power" now, those days are gone. In future we'll only see regional powers. India has the potential to be regional power in Indian ocean but this will take time.

India will become a global leader ,strong military and economic power.

@Kal Muah , @Two is talking about this:

According to multiple organizations, there were 46 million people enslaved in 2016, with an estimated 18.3 million of those in India.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavery_in_India#Contemporary_slavery
(modern slavery: from the following article)
It found that almost 60 per cent of the world's slaves are in five countries: China, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Uzbekistan.

I prefer to provide links to Wikipedia, I have seen this link. There are about 2 million slaves in China, but I don't know why they are slaves. Perhaps because of poor mountain people, heavy labor in exchange for micro-blog income. But there is also a concept, what is the standard? China' tibet, the minimum wage is 1500 yuan per month. About 250 dollars. Or 15000 rupees. In accordance with this standard. China's slave income may reach 5 yuan per day... Tibet's minimum wage 1/10. is unlikely to be lower. India's poverty line standard for 32 rupees a day, about 3 yuan. Income higher than 32 rupees in India is rich. But not in china. So, the standard of slavery is different.

1. When did i deny that India doesn't have mordern slaves? I said it is mostly human trafficking due to gangsters. With rising economy eventually we will get rid of it. It will take a decade or two.
2. The chinese govt doesnt allow large crowd gathering, religious symbols over buildings and lot of other stuff and yes Indian police take bribes but not everyone, specially after modi regime. Also dont tell me chinese ppl are not corrupted. Chinese police are more modest, ohhh yes just because you said that i have to agree now. Yes yes I believe it.
3. You have 56 ethnic groups? Cute guess what we have more than 2000 ethnic groups with more than 30 languages and yet we believe everyone must be given a chance to serve the motherland.
4. A army which takes oath for a party is more efficient, ya sure keep that logic to yourself in China. Also what has aircraft crash got to do this point? We all know what happens in CCTV and "so called free media" in china.
5. A simple protest and your whole government got ratified. Remember the yellow umbrella protest? The fact is CCP is scared of anything and anyone who protest
6. 1500 farmer suicide is due to poor monsoon, farmers will die in India but wont sell land thats our mentality. Good that your farmers are rich so what?
And with all these bullshit china is clear India is not and blah blah, guess what? we can still protest against our govt and kick them out if they do anything bad, try doing that in your country, and dont tell me CCP is all saint and they never did anything bad.

Calm down, keep your head. Don't let the subjective idea for your logical thinking.
1, India is as high as 18 million slaves, bad effects of Indian democracy, but we want India to get rid of him.
2, According to People's Republic article 35 of the constitution—— Chinese citizens have speech, assembly, religion, freedom of the press. If India's democracy reflect at the rally, China is also very democratic.

The Chinese people against the PX project demonstration.

Event the end result: the government announced that it would respect the will of the people, cancel the PX project.
Indian people know what is the PX project? Oh, sorry, this is a relatively high-end topics.
This is India's understand democracy?
3,China's 4G network coverage rate reached 80%. China exposure in the media is hard to calculate the number of news from the network. By the way, China is the biggest market of PC and smart phones, almost every family has a 1-3 PCS. So, Chinese people don't watch much TV, nor too focused on China central television (CCTV), we have enough source of information. Tell me now, India in 2010-2013 crashed 30 aircraft, in other democratic countries, countries with a free press, so it is with such as the US or UK?
4,

Indians living in China there are 48000 people, the wikipedia data many. But in fact more than the data. China has 300000 black illegally. Cause serious social problems. So, what do you think we do not protest?? Wrong, every day to protest in China, so the Chinese government will adopt indifferent attitude, not to them. China is a country with a global strategy, so there are too many things to deal with, it is India's don't understand.
5,About India each year, 1500 farmers commit suicide, not the monsoon as reasons for this. This is caused by the Indian government's policy, the same logical thinking - if the Indian government before the monsoon, provide a good help for the Indian farmers, Indian farmers not to commit suicide in despair, so farmers commit suicide is caused by the government of India.

About the efficiency, and the farmers wealthier, do you have any questions?
6,

CCP have corruption and bad people, so we can through the network to report them, put them in jail. We set up the complete report system, depending on our advanced network media, and the government's zero tolerance of corruption.

b. http://www.npr.org/sections/paralle...even-months-of-forced-labor-in-a-chinese-jail
And we all know about that Foxconn suicides https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foxconn_suicides

2. Democracy : Democracy is not about rights, its a form a government for the people, by the people, of the people. I choose my leaders. If I don't like them I can write a letter, communicate with the media, write a blog about it. Basically, get the word out why I have a problem against the leader.
Everything political in China is censored. An individual can't speak openly about politics. Remember the Putin Shawl gesture to Xi's wife and when Chinese internet talked about it, how your dictators silenced them? or that time in Yellow umbrella protest? or the Jasmine revolution? Unlike your Capitalist Dictators, Indian Democracy is as real as it can gets. In real terms of democracy even USA don't come close to INDIA, let alone your country. Here see a documentary from Discovery Channel:

3. Military : Indian military has highest crash rate, why? A. Intense Training : IAF pilots are known to lead missions over 10 hours in their Sukhoi's. Here's about China According to Foreign Policy, Chinese pilots are not spending sufficient time in the air or training under pressure. “(Chinese) pilots are neither trusted nor properly trained. Drills are regimented, centrally controlled, and divorced from realistic combat conditions.” B. Tropical Environment : Tropical India is an unforgiving environment for any aircraft. The hot air means aircraft engines produce less thrust and the wing produce less lift compared to similar aircraft flying in European skies. Sun baked runways are also known to impact landing safety. These are factors IAF pilots have to live with.

4. Freedom of press Index : Do I need to explain anymore? China vs India

​

5. Farmers : Farmers are poor and do suicide. Thats because our media highlights most about the bad things in the society more than the good things happening. Here something to read for a change :
How farmers in Haryana & Punjab are earning Rs 8-10 lakh per acre in agroforestry
This farmer earns Rs. 22 lakh a year from 2.1 acres of land
India's rich farmers may be holding more cash than the black money Mr Modi is hunting abroad

6. Corruption : CCP have corruption so they removed a low hanging fruit, and you jump with joy. Here what happened in India in 2014 elections. We removed an entire party from India.
Indian election 2014: Corruption and infrastructure on the agenda during biggest poll so far

The fact is you cannot compare a Capitalist Dictatorship with Democracy. With 100 bad points you show towards India I can comeback with 1000's of good points. Good that you are happy with your country, I am happy with mine. The more points you will show me up, I can counter with 100 if not 1000s more. So, good luck trying to make India down. While you believe in one china unity, we believe Unity in diversity.
P.S I haven't even touched India's softpower of Ayurveda, Yoga, Buddhism, Martial Arts, Bollywood etc.
P.P.S There's a famous saying in India, "Work like a Chinese, Argue like an Indian, Think like a Japanese and Save like a Jew"

Remember the Putin Shawl gesture to Xi's wife and when Chinese internet talked about it, how your dictators silenced them? or that time in Yellow umbrella protest? or the Jasmine revolution? Unlike your Capitalist Dictators, Indian Democracy is as real as it can gets. In real terms of democracy even USA don't come close to INDIA, let alone your country. Here see a documentary from Discovery Channel:

3. Military : Indian military has highest crash rate, why? A. Intense Training : IAF pilots are known to lead missions over 10 hours in their Sukhoi's. Here's about China According to Foreign Policy, Chinese pilots are not spending sufficient time in the air or training under pressure. “(Chinese) pilots are neither trusted nor properly trained. Drills are regimented, centrally controlled, and divorced from realistic combat conditions.” B. Tropical Environment : Tropical India is an unforgiving environment for any aircraft. The hot air means aircraft engines produce less thrust and the wing produce less lift compared to similar aircraft flying in European skies. Sun baked runways are also known to impact landing safety. These are factors IAF pilots have to live with.

4. Freedom of press Index : Do I need to explain anymore? China vs India

​

5. Farmers : Farmers are poor and do suicide. Thats because our media highlights most about the bad things in the society more than the good things happening. Here something to read for a change :
How farmers in Haryana & Punjab are earning Rs 8-10 lakh per acre in agroforestry
This farmer earns Rs. 22 lakh a year from 2.1 acres of land
India's rich farmers may be holding more cash than the black money Mr Modi is hunting abroad

6. Corruption : CCP have corruption so they removed a low hanging fruit, and you jump with joy. Here what happened in India in 2014 elections. We removed an entire party from India.
Indian election 2014: Corruption and infrastructure on the agenda during biggest poll so far

The fact is you cannot compare a Capitalist Dictatorship with Democracy. With 100 bad points you show towards India I can comeback with 1000's of good points. Good that you are happy with your country, I am happy with mine. The more points you will show me up, I can counter with 100 if not 1000s more. So, good luck trying to make India down. While you believe in one china unity, we believe Unity in diversity.
P.S I haven't even touched India's softpower of Ayurveda, Yoga, Buddhism, Martial Arts, Bollywood etc.
P.P.S There's a famous saying in India, "Work like a Chinese, Argue like an Indian, Think like a Japanese and Save like a Jew"

I like to talk to the wise speak
1, about 3 million slaves in China, thank you for your concern, but I think they not are India's 32 rupees a day poverty line, and India slaves standard is different. The minimum wage for each month 1500 yuan of Tibet. Us $250. Or 15000 rupees. China's the slave's revenue will not too low, at least not less than $100 a month. Foxconn has set up factory in India, because China's wages rise continuously, the profits reduce. Looking forward to their cooperation with India.
2, What do you think there are some subjective, without thinking, you think everything is censored in China, actually this is wrong. As I don't think all indians are Dalit, so remain objective, Chinese elite politics. Xi jinping before becoming China's President, has experienced the 40 years of political life, he made the mayor, governor. Xi jinping made 2 provincial governors, and the mayor of Shanghai. Until he 60 become the Chinese President at the age. This and a little different India.
System of China, both democracy and political elites, China won't appear similar to a series of problems in India.
3，The Chinese air force training time 200 hours a year, so your understanding of the Chinese air force, belongs to the typical "Indian comfort themselves“. About the Chinese air force, I suggest you take a look at this.

4，

On press freedom, you is higher than China and Singapore, also higher than north Korea, but in terms of standard of living, you is the same with north Korea.
5，About the issue of agriculture, I don't want to say too much, no comparison between China and India.

I don't have any feelings of CCP. But I love China. So I'm happy to see that because of the Chinese people to report. CCP officials were arrested. It would have been unthinkable in India. ,
Another evidence: for allegedly raping a Chinese general's son, was arrested in 10 hours. And the Chinese people on the Internet to report its in 2011 have been wounded a pair of husband and wife, so the general's son, eventually face 10 years in prison. This may occur in India?

6，Finally, I sincerely hope every Indian friends working in China, healthy, happy, can get a good income.

Ignoring all the grammatical error, and whatever is understandable from this post, allow me to counter you on your points.

1. What we initially talked is on Slavery, What you are talking now is Poverty. Poverty is not equal to Slavery. One suicide inside FOXCONN in India and you bet your ***, FOXCONN will be forced to shutdown its operations. You see we have labour unions and then Media which will beat the shit out of this companies if anything like this happens.

2. Without thinking, I dont think, All Indians Dalit... Whaaaaatttt? Do you have any idea who is a dalit? Heck even I am a dalit? So how is dalit coming into the picture? Please dont fart on subjects that you dont understand. Your 2nd point just brought down the IQ of the entire PDF members.

3. What you said about XI JINGPING is his background story, that is not called Democracy. Here's the background story of Mr. Modi (by me).

4. belongs to the typical "Indian comfort themselves“ .... I have quoted you foreign policy for the previous source, rather than taking time to insult Indians take time to read.

5. So all your "We have more freedom in China" went down to the gutter as soon as I gave proof and now we are talking about standards of living. Haha!! stop changing topics like a chameleon who changes colors.

6. So some big shot minister raped and you sacked Big deal? Hell ya this happens all the time. Here let me quote you yesterdays event :
Sacked AAP minister Sandeep Kumar booked for rape, surrenders before police

7. Oh! dont worry we host chinese people for last 100 years, in my place Kolkata called China Town (Tangra) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinatown,_Kolkata

Good Luck to us both

End, Indian friends, I don't want to answer in the pain of the people of India to you, it's not conform to the education we have received.

I don't understand how can people compare two nations which are exactly poles apart from each other. China and India have two different forms of government, one being ruled by a single party, other being democratic. Both have different sets of problems, different cultures, different thinking. Things that can work in China will not work for India and vice versa.

Indian only like to compare everything with Pakistan, like just now one Indian in another thread was boasting about how big is their defense budget vis-a-vis Pakistan but when it comes to comparing with china they become philosophers...lol
