If India becomes a superpower by 2050 I will be extremely shocked and happy too! India will never manage 2010, I wouldnt even comment on that! You Indians get over-excited very easily, thats quite sad, you are only kidding yourselves. How can a nation with 350 million destitute people, thousands of backward villages, thousands of slums and strife ethnic conflicts become a superpower in 50 years let alone in 5!
India is a country that is too far ahead of its time, first clean your streets before you launch rockets into space - otherwise the problems you will have would be unprecedented - which can be seen.
The biggest problem that poses a big threat to India's destruction is, GROSS SOCIAL INEQUALITY. The people who are responsible for this are not the poiliticians, but the people of India, especially the middle classes. But remember one thing, social inequality and injustice breeds only one thing - TOTAL DESTRUCTION - and nothing else.
I know how everything works in this hypocritical society of India. Whenever disaster occurs and people die, everyone makes excuses and ignores what has happened, whereas the people who suffer, they suffer!
