You must be joking. The goods that we produce are actually at least 6 to 10 yrs obsolete crap....

Ok, fine so we are not technologically that advanced. We really do need to concentrate on infrastructure. But dont compare India with Ghana or Yemen.
Actually we must be one of the few who are more endowed by nature than most others nations, yet manage to screw everything. Go to the interior of Maharashtra and see (i shudder to imagine the fate of bihar or orissa).
We have made some progress after the Brits left.
Ha ha we have actually managed to regress, going by the value of our currency. It was approx Rs.1.1 to the dollar when we became independent. It is Rs. 47 to a $ now. wonderful.
everything on our government. Yes, they are ******* but we need to think as citizens of this country are we any better than these guys? Have we done something to help our country? Just sitting on our a$$e$ and cursing our illiterate politicians wont help. We need to move our a$$e$ and do something about it. We need to be active citizens.
Ya ya agreed. Actually we just need to get rid of <rant, rave etc etc> and do not get taken by the propaganda about our piffiling "achievements" dished out by sundry officials. But at the end of the day Hum Hindustani.
