Its nice to see people think the exporters only make those people like Infy, Satyam and TCS. Gross inability to see the writing on the wall. For any economy to be good its not the imports that should arise but the exports and the Finance Minister is moer interested only in the imports being increased more. His allegiance is like that. The three finance stalwarts are ruining the country on the long run and you people won't understand it now.
There are many export houses which employ more people than these kind of technical labour especially many semi skilled and skilled labours goto these kind of export houses. Imagine what would be the impact of losing jobs? 2,75,000 would indirectly mean a lose of livelihood for over a million people. The finance minister must be very happy to know that. He would be happy to know there would be more jobs for Americans in US, Britons in Britain etc. Also look at our losing the competitiveness. All this is to keep the stock market ticking. Sad psycho mentality.
Before people say somethign about to hell with infy and all trust me these people won't lose or cut jobs but its the poor layman who works hard and earns his bread working hard under the sun.
