he is just putting in front a valid point... its appropriate to provide per capita consumption along with the total consumption. This is an imp factor, India consumes ~ 2.5m barrels of oil per day, that is 3% of total consumption in world even though India has 26% of the world population, on the other hand US consumes 20m barrels per day, which amounts to 25% of total world consumption but their population is just 5% of the world. YOu can see he contrast!

A million people from across the world go through these statistics. Its easier for rediff to have done the table than a million people individually doing it......
Dont have to mention about your IQ here..... as good as the person who wrote this article.....
Its good to know which country consumes more Oil. But I feel Media has to change the way they thinks and present the picture of India.. Look at all the pictures for other countries presented in this slide show...happy faces, good scenes all around and while presenting India they have shown a Bad Traffic Jam.... Why such negative image of our own country... Really SAD and Bad job by Rediff....
India fails because of educated people who despite seeing the drama and truth behind politics don’t vote. We have to use PIL RTI Civil obedience Boycott (Product or services by companies like reliance) like tools more frequently. As far as the FDI is concern my friends let me tell u that since 2005 via SWISS Maurious IND route or P note we have got enough money but only to have inflation. My request/suggestion to Indian govt is that they should come up with Black money bond once for all. The money should be invested in improving Infrastructure, creating employment, education etc. And do not divide Indian by caste, religion, sex etc. For people of India I urge spread the positive, grow yourself and grow society, after all ultimately we have to bequeath this world to our children and I am sure they deserve the best.

Mr Chidambaram has launch VDIS in 1997 for voluntry disclosure of Income scheme. In which people who have unaccounted money get the opportunity to disclose. Now we have seen that big drama in parliament ( Cash case). No body bothered from where this cash come from. what if this type of cash utilize for infrastructure purpose. The people who have this will invest In Infrastructure fund and they will may get some saving bank interest rate and after 7 or ten year they will get all money tax free. But this should be once for all, and person will be prosecuted if not investing in it and caught in future. This is just an idea and can be explore by ICAI or Min of Finance. But definatly it will help infrastructure.
have taken the help of others in the course of developments. Only Britain has not taken the help because Industrial revolution. US depended on France for its freedom, Japan depended on US for marshall plan, all the western countries took lead from Britain. Germany took the help of US. So all these guys who are shouting about self-reliance and not taking the help of other countries are lying and will take India backward. India needs the help of industrialized countries to kickstart its own industrial revolution. Without industrial revolution and application of science and technology there can be no progress and no prosperity.

every country started out like us. Nobody had money initially. And nobody developed in just 10 years. It is a long and hard process. FDI is one source of money ie how China is developing its infrastructure.

china has better infrastructure so you can go and settle there. Since you dont see India improving as India has less infrastructure development compared to china.

by 2020- India will have: Largest workforce in the world Highest productivity in the world Highest number of engineers and medical Professionals in the world
I know it sounds impossible, but we are the ones who need to work on making it a reality! So stop cribbing and do some good for your country. People like you dont do anything but also discourage others!
Why rediff could not put India's beautiful symbol Taj Mahal instead of showing the big traffic. All other countries represent with their beautiful item. The rediff makes India's image down infront of other countries. Stupid rediff.
Meeting of two losers. P.Patil is occupying the most expensive real estate in India, India wiil be better served if occupied by homeless people, at least they will bless India to wash away the bad karmas of Sonia/MMS. Patil is more useless than a mans tits.
Indians should NOT be under the misconception that MMS has accomplished anything of grandeur by signing the nuclear deal. Get ONE fact straight in your head--USA wants the deal more than India wants, the tatus have only complied. For their gain and NOT India's. The environmental reasons will DEMAND the need for nuclear power for any reason that can afford it and NOT oil producer or dependent. They (Congress) have only done it for robbing the country. $100 billions are at stake of the Indian treasury.
USA would be willing to sign the nuclear deal with a paanwala, rickshawala, chamar, or a homeless person staying in Rashtriya(Patil) Bhavan.
INDIA can be self sufficient with its own natural resources and brains and manpower.
NONE of these politicians except a handful have earned the right to be cremated on Indian soil. One such persons (name withheld) should be moved from Raj Ghat to Porkistan. You know who. N.

if India had been self-sufficient, Indian rupee would not have been trading at 42 rs to 1 dollar. India is not self-sufficient in anything except food production. And even in that it had to rely on help from US via green revolution. It will take a long time for India to be self-sufficient. Wake up and smell the coffee.
Indian cities are in pathetic state- traffic jams every where. This wastes a lot of petrol, and contributes to pollution. This must be fixed. Improve public transport, and seriously invest in solar and other resources. But will Soni's gang do anything about theseissues? NO. They are too busy appeasing the minorities.

Cut the petrol and keep diesel subsidies only for trucks. Consumption will go down by another 50% in India. People will stop buying cars as they will realize that the real price of petrol is 200 Rs. per liter.
