Whether it is Congress or BJP it doesn't matter because everyday 350 million people in India are still starving for a meal.

It'd remain this way till the time we have more important issues to fight about.... mandir/masjid, conversions, casteism, .. damn it, God must be fed up with us by now.

I don't agree with it..
1. More number of BMW's are sold in India
2. More number of millianere's in the world (un official)
3.Number one sales of bikes in the world...

thats a flawed justification vi si. The large number of sales are basically because we are such a freakin huge population. Try normalizing your result on the % of people with these buying power and you will see how badly india fairs.

that's stupid. The population is growing at less than 2% rate but sales are growing at 10% rate. I hope you learned math.

I did my math really well. If you take rate into consideration then we will do WELL in the far FUTURE!! *compounding* the rate over the PRESENT population. Again, sales gain 10% over their present value which is based on a different number than what the population is based on. Arre yaar, thoda toh dimaag lagao

Plus that was'nt even my core point. Thats the whole issue with us, we get blinded by success so much that we forget where we need to work on. Winners always know their weaknesses an improve them rather than showing off their successes. Lets keep our feet on the ground AND look at the sky.
