India will remain in a hyphenated relationship, despite the talk, with Pakistan for years to come. Because, India is still miles away from rising above its regional power stature.
If we search the reasons, very little lie outside India, and mostly it is within us. Why, despite being a concentious nation, we can not root out corruption? We are hardworking when we work abroad, why cant we show the same enterprise at home? Why do we tolerate Laloo Prasad Yadavs, Narendra Modis and other criminals in our system? These keep us backward - no amount of US goodwill will ever take us anywhere.

Suprio! Narendra Modi's govt is the Most uncorrupt govt in INdia TODAY. IF you do not know the facts don't open your Communist mouth. The Attrocities that CPI and CPM are doing in West Bangal and in Kerala are many folds more than what happened in Gujarat. Why do you forget Congress too? Where are the culprits of 2003 killing of 11 and 51 injured Hindus in Kerala? where are culprits of 1984 sikhs?
Narendra Modi's Govt is the smallest and Most effective givt. Even World Bank and UN has given His govt awards for speedy recovery after earth quake.
Try to think with your own mind, and not with the mind and words of News papers and US government, that is if you have one. If you are retarded, what can I say but "Sorry"

The answer to your why's can be found in the political history of India starting from 1947 till 1991 (when the economic reforms started). I suggest you read a book called 'India unbound'( I forgot the name of the author, the last name is Das). India is changing fast. Though most of your negative observations are correct, there is no doubt that a system encouraging the private enterprise and marking the end of red tapes are winning ground. thanks.
