This is an interesting artical. However I would like point that India still needs to a lot in order to achive a repect and power in the world.
All that is being said is good only for economy, but look at the Sarbjit case, what is that indian government would do incase Sarbjit is hanged(murdered) by Pakistan. On the other hand India could not even punish the Russian and UK national even when we had proven evidance of their involvement in Anti India operation.
Take another example, France is giving biscutes of UN seat to sell its submarines and planes. There are several incidnces. Why in first place India needs all the backing, can't it became powerful(economically and militraly) that it can demand a seat in Security counsel?
