Lool so you think we in the west suddenly respect you now more than 1year ago because of MODI?
Man don't be naive it, it will take decades(not 1 year. Lol) for the change india is implementing to be visible enough /make a big difference in the country's living standards /productivity /industrilasation etc and thereby change foreigner perception about India, and even Indians themselves. .
As I said earlier, politicians are all liars /hypocrites, thats what makes them politicians in the first place. As a politician you have to learn the act of deceiving people and making them believe in you BY ALL MEANS, saying things you know they want to hear and putting on a good pr. In this case perception always matters more than reality .. So stop having a blind love for a politician. I never trust any politician, always go deeper into what they say/do and make a proper neutral analysis on your own. so chill and let your Prime Minister carry on.
