looking beyond our neighbours!
by Aninda Mukharji on Mar 29, 2005 12:55 PM

The US offer to India for their fighter jets has been mishandled by our ministers once again.Firstly we should look beyond our phobia of Pakistan and look towards global role for India beyond its impoverished neighbours.Secondly we should inform US that we have no need of thier generous offer of F16s.We should shop elsewhere.India should build at greater speed the fence and walls around its borders and contain infiltration and illegal entry from our neighbours.We should ignore them and kook towards South east Asia and other developed countries for trade and exchange of poeple.
I was in Bangladesh for 6 months and observed how they treat the minorities ,who virtually have no voice and live in fear perpetually.The women are constantly molested and even during Durga puja the Hindus are not allowed to play drums or loud speakers.Just compare this with the rights of muslims in our country.We are much more tolerent than most countries of the world.
