      +Xyz Abc oh yes, whenever you fail to defend your stand rationally then fall back on name calling. BTW, 'bhakts' LOVE being called bhakts.....unlike the chappal chaatu chamchas of the Congress who DETEST being called by their real name of 'chamchas'.
      At the end of the day, it is the results that do the talking. You may love the scam-a-day UPA, fawn over hypocritical and venal 'doon school' types, swoon over the wannabe angrez NGO aunties and uncles.......BUT it is the NDA that will deliver India out of the mess and bring it its due! Not your fake Gandhis and the opportunistic tharoors!

    @sagarkochar 10 лет назад +74

    Well actually I have a lot of freinds who crib about as to when India will overtake US and China, we'll my philosophy is pretty much aligned with Dr tharoors Idea's for India. I say that its not about overtaking someone ! its more about your own identity evolving to a level where others start respecting it and taking it seriously ! and that is why soft power is so important !! All countries races are based on identity. So India henceforth has to decide what it wants to be identified with...the biggest democracy in the world, a diverse country with innumerus cultures, religions and traditions coexisting together, a country which manage's to pullot all of its population out of poverty by lets say 2030, a country with 100% literacy rate, a country which excels in infrastructre in its own unique and innovative ways, a country which is able to provied hope to more than a billion people and a country that becomes a major player in the world !!
    I Think its all about the out of the box thinking and open minedness which i believe the young generation of india is very much capable of !! And that they need to realize and re-realize this potential in them and that each contribution and idea no matter how small is going to change the face of this country forever !!
    And speaking of a country like US, the country has its own model of the society and how things should be and should be done. They have introduce certain things to the world which is now synonumus to their culture, history and tradition which have been adopted by other countries and which btw work quite well all around the world.
    And anyways storytelling is mark of all civilization but to tell the story you want to tell, you've got to make your world in such a way that can get the right and positive attention from others !!

    This talk was given ten years ago in 2009, and is as relevant in 2019 as it as then. It is unfortunate that most Indians, wake up in the morning and go about their activities of the day, without the slightest notion of India’s heritage and its place in the global economy. They also should be the target of this message, to give them hope, a vision that they can aspire to. Taught in the schools and as an entertaining story via TV.

    Did you get the impression he was saying that none of those things exist in India? I sort of understood him as India having survived politicially despite bad odds.
    Now, I certainly would prefer if MORE people were like him, regardless of that being upperclass or not. He is intelligent, eloquent, artiulate, reflective and honest. I really enjoyed listening to him.

      Think when he was asked this earlier he said that whilst he agreed with many of the BJP's policies, one thing that he was totally against was the general sense of Hindu supremacy that they viewed the world in, and rather than look down on people who aren't Hindu, said he'd much rather work with a party that has similar core values on the people of the country. Despite Congress' deep rooted corruption aside, can understand his reasoning. He can't do anything at all in one of the minor parties.

      The so-called secularism that you're so fond of was merely an illusion created at the expense of the majority hindu population. Upon the exodus of the Kashmiri population. Upon the appeasement of minority vote banks. The populace of India collectively took a decision, and seeing the state of affairs of the opposition, I'd say we made the right choice.
