What nonsense.

"He said India is changing and people don't want government, bureaucrats and politicians in their lives. The postman has been made irrelevant after courier companies have come in. Except the army, government should become non-existent in Indians lives ..."

Yes, and we are all rich like him and can afford to send our children to private schools and then college, and afford to go to private hospitals after the government gets out of these too. What world are these people living in ? Do they even realize the conditions under which 90% of their country-men live
(650 million have to defecate in the open)
when they talk about bullet trains (as if slow trains are the most important problem facing this nation) ?
Do they realize that in a propsperous country like France (which they want to emulate) there is absolutely no private participation in education (private schools or colleges are unheard of) and even though there are a few private doctors the government provides health services to most people.

If such people penned the nuclear deal for us, then we are all done for.
