let not wranglings and tussles between the National Congress Party, the BJJP Party and the Calcutta Communist Party be responsible for sending the entire economy into the dumps.
Good relations with America and its Allies the European Union, Japan, South Korea & Taiwan means access to the largest trading bloc in the world - 35 trillion dollars economy/year, technology transfer, jobs & oustourcing, liberal travel regulations etc.
Bad realtionship with Anerica means no more foreign investemnt, no more outsourcing, no jobs, no technology transfer, no American/European/Japenese/Korean products, nothing. Only Chinese Pong-Wong cars & plastic toys & Russian Lada cars & Chernobyl reactors that blow up every week will be available.

just hype that the Republic of India is such a large market ? its just 1 trillion dollars, compared to 11 trillion for USA, 4 trillion for Japan & Germany each.
the Republic of India gains much more than the USA from this deal.....technolgy transfer, outsourcing, exports market, uranium supply, h1-b visas etc

How much your father's generation was earning at their retirement age? Must be about 100th of what our young guys are earning at the entry level. Does this mean that they were less capable? Those statistics are drawing very eronious conclusions. You know the disary the country was in in 50s and 60s, the Planners then had given the much needed stability. The economic prosperity of today, about which you have mentioned, is on the strong foundation they had laid down then. If the foundation is weak, we can not build a multi-storied construnction over it. Let us remember this always.The selective statistics, most of the times give opposit conclusions.
Another thing, our economical miracle is not an imported one. It is fully indegenious and is due to our economy's inner strength.
By the way, do you know as to what the economic growth is? It is only 2%.
