This is my fear, and I suppose this is exactly what is happening behind the scenes. Our country is fast losing true politics and politicians. And we have to deal now with the new generation spies, who work for the betterment of proprietary corporates at the expense of our countrymen.
While I think communism is partly a solution to removing proprietary software companies and make it a state-owned affair, the current "trend" of these politicians will make it a worse environment for free software to thrive. They will all the more be interested in acquiring software from foreign companies and launder money. I'm sure communism will not happen in india, given the amount of damage US did to the face of communism by pointing its fingers at badly implemented communism in countries such as the Soviet Union, thanks to Stalin.
