Accept the facts
by Rahul Bajaj on Feb 25, 2005 05:52 PM   Permalink

Hi all,

To be honest, I was very positive about India before I landed in Europe. We are far behind. In my opinion we are ignoring the facts. I would love to see such comments taking shape of reality but there is alot to be done. We are forth largest economy in the world, but see the size and population of our country. We have money but not well distributed. The import export gap is increasing. We do not have a big manufacturing sector.

I would say India is better than what it was in last decade, but this is not something to proud. We do not have basic ficilities. Female education is less than 40%. I do not feel that we would be able to overcome all this in just 50 years. There's a long way to go.

We have seen few call centers coming to India and expanding software industry and this has swollen us already. This is nothing as compared to EU or USA or China. Please do not get dissapointed as I just wanted to put some facts in front. Just search on net to compare my India with other countries. You will know the truth yourself or just and go to village nearby, you will find a different world or go to some slum within your city where thousands are living within your city.....
Regards
