Is India rapidly closing towards being a SuperPower?

[applesauce]

Have huge space research programme and you are bound to become a superpower.

errr... or go bankrupted.
its all about money and resources with money you can have that high tech military, with money you can have many friends, with money you can development those technologies, with money you can attract the best of the best.

Good Question. Before even talking about whether India is a super power or not you have to define what a super power is.

Where is this image from? Certainly not a reputed or peer reviewed sources for sure...hell they couldn't event spell "indigenous" correctly. And I love the way the "qualities" of a prospective super-power were listed. It's sad.

while I abhor the bickering for "superpower" title(which is merely a self aggrandizing one), the last thing I would want to use as a benchmark for superpowerdom is the work of some fanboy from god knows where.

Well, the excel formatting aside (why would you expect a peer reviewed source?) what about that list for superpower criterion do you find objectionable?
