We have an opposition hysteria on the N Deal. The same hysteria was created for GATT. Everyone (CPM,BJP, JD etc.) in the early 1990s opposed the Congress for GATT talking of a sell out just like they are doing now on the N Deal.
What have been the effects of the GATT in the last 15 years? Have we been wiped out? Have the westerners captured Indian Industry or is it the other way round, Indian companies learning to stand on their own feet, think big and actually go on a buying spree to capture and dominate the world.
Manmohan Singh is right. Not only the left but a lot of us also underestimate the intrinsic strength of India. We need to show more confident in ourselves.
