<b>ravish Ji :</b>
Welcome back from your sojourn in more ambient areas and surroundings!
Our esteemed and enlightened Members â the vociferous vocal ones â are continuously addressing the âEffectâ without exercising their God given Faculties and thereby addressing the âCauseâ
The Indian Leadership â inept in most spheres no doubt â must have got âsomethingâ right.
As Bill Clinton said âIt is the Economy, Stupid!â so I feel the Indian Leadership â I reiterate inept in many areas â has at least got the Rudiments of a path leading to a Healthy Economy right.
I refer you to the following IMF Web Site :
<b>5. Report for Selected Countries and Subjects</b>
I now quote the following Data :
Gross domestic product per capita, current prices :
1980 : India : USD 255.030 â Pakistan : USD 347.344
<b>In this case Pakistanâs GDP per capita is over 36% Higher than that of India</b>
1993 : India : USD 298.125 â Pakistan : USD 537.344
<b>In this case Pakistanâs GDP per capita is over 80% Higher than that of India</b>
2008 : India : USD 1,016.158 â Pakistan : USD 1,044.485
<b>In this case Pakistanâs GDP per capita is less than 3% Higher than that of India</b>
Yes. one can attribute this bridging of the Gap by India by 77% in 15 Years to the General Indian Business Acumen but then this Acumen was always there.
It is the Indian Governments and the Administrations in the Last Fifteen Years that have helped to create this Economic Uplift.
It is very easy to âKickâ the perceived âMoronsâ in the Indian Government as also the Leadership but those in the âKinkingâ Group must also appreciate the constraints that exist as well as are imposed on any Indian Government which are an outcome of Mahatma Gandhiâs and Jawahar Lal Nehruâs repeated humungous Faux Pas - be they be in respect of China or Pakistan or the Indian Muslim Minority or other Utopian Ideas and Ideals.
The Indian Stock Exchanges by their Revival â they may well be staged by the new Government and its supporters in Commerce and Industry â do point to the confidence in the new Government and if the bottom does not now fall in respect of the Indian Economy then, without giving a clean chit to the present Government, one is âforcedâ to admit that the present Government has at least got âSomething Rightâ.
Successive Indian Governments has not had the âGumptionâ to have an Armed Forces Capacity which is Seven Times that of Pakistan and herein lies the perceived Indian Weakness thereby a corresponding Pakistani Strength.
With the latest development in Pakistan one has noticed â with no small measure of Satisfaction â that Pakistan has been reduced to the state of the <b>Worldâs Number One Wielder of the Begging Bowl âPar Excellenceâ as well as âBar Noneâ</b>.
As is well said "As thou soweth so thou reapeth" - It may not be grammatically correct but I hope I have conveyed the meaning.
In addition to the Minorities Communal Leadership India is burdened with the âLiberal-Leftistsâ Groups and one again derives â this time a Lot of â Satisfaction from not only the Communist-Leftist Rout but also that of the opportunists of the Lallu Prasad Yadav and Mayawati along with Others of the âIlkâ.
In my humble opinion with Three to Five Years of Economic Stability and hopefully Development will lead India to become a âMiddle Income Nationâ whereby we will be able to have a much stronger nation whereas Pakistan keeps sinking into the morass of ignominy.
Of course this statement is made without taking into account any unforeseen circumstances or incidents being experienced by India in the relative period.
I do not unequivocally support the present Government but am willing to give it a chance to prove its worth or otherwise.
Let us "Wait and Watch!"
