I do agree that india has attained remarkable growth after independence which is honestly not enough.I don't believe in comparing india with other tiny, rich asian and european nations of less population and more resources.If we have a closer look at what we call as our acheivements like green revolution,white revolution etc..,they were not initiated by our politicians,but they are simply the crative brain childrens of our indian intellectuals.Those intellectuals who know how to manage the political pressure of corrupted politicians without giving up their ideas are the ones who made our india really shining. As long as politicians stick to their power greedy,caste based politics,the constuctive ideas of hundreds of visionaries and intellectuals remain stagnant as their ideas need some formal approval,allocation of funds.etc..which again requires support from the politicians in power.I observed one significant difference between india and china despite of my unwillingness to bring china in the topic now.The difference is that It is our intellectuals who are not poloticians want india to shine but in china,It is their politicians who are also intellectuals want china to shine.
