    India Indian Economy + Infra Archive

    Markets are booming because of speculation. Can you explain the following stocks' stupendous rise? Adani Green Adani (pretty much anything) Seems how the stock of Tips has skyrocketed? If they are clearing a mess for 7 years economically, just how efficient are they? What did demonization...

    India Indian Economy + Infra Archive

    I disagree. UPA 1 did a lot of good - India-US nuke deal. GST was mooted by UPA 1 too and opposed by BJP. Their interferece with institutions was also not as blatant or proactive as that of Modi / Shah.

    India India - Pakistan Relations

    Poor chaps can't distinguish between Tamil Eelam demand in Lanka and language movement in South India back in the day. Can't blame them though.

    I've heard about that. Must have been quite bizarre.

    India Indian Economy + Infra Archive

    Why? I agree Congress & UPA was/were and will be supremely corrupt with ministers like Shibu Soren, Lalu Yadav, A Raja, Kalmadi and Pawar. But the economy was booming - with everything from real estate to Pharma to telecom to IT booming under the UPA regime. BJP's economic policies have been...

    India India - Pakistan Relations

    He always says such stuff. "No one knows the West like I do. No one knows India like I do." Is weird to say the least. Sometimes takes the maximalist liberal position talking about equality on the other hand calls Osama a martyr.

    It also states that Pakistan was asking US to shut down Indian consulates. I guess with the Taliban back in power any work India did to build infrastructure like schools and roads to benefit the common Afghan will take a backseat. We can only hope the Taliban don't go around breaking and...

    India India - China Relations

    By Chinese "experts" in what is generally viewed as a mouthpiece of the CCP India should stop political manipulation and make efforts to realize full disengagement at an early date, as China's will to cherish peace and its military strength are both stronger than India's, experts said, after...

    India India - Pakistan Relations

    On one hand he talks of peace and opens up Kartarpur Sahib for the Sikh pilgrims and on the other he calls Osama a martyr. He continues to say he believes in peace with India - I guess that's good. Subcontinent deserves its peace. But there is no common ground to talk about Kashmir. India and...

    If he is extradited, there might be a condition to forego capital punishment as was the case with Abu Salem.

    India India - Pakistan Relations

    The move against Portugese Goa was a move against imperial colonialism. Are you saying European countries should have been allowed to have colonies in Asia? In Hyderabad, India honored the Standstill Agreement signed between the Nizam and Govt. of India. It was the Nizam who broke it. All...

    India India - Pakistan Relations

    That's good. Which means Pakistan was ahead of China too till the 1990s I guess because the Indian economy and Chinese economy were pretty much the same size till the Rajiv Gandhi era in the mid 1980s If Pak does well, as I said, good for them. I don't know how much Pak invested in technical...

    India India - Pakistan Relations

    I guess that's the difference between a nation-state which abides by international law and its treaties and a nation-state which doesn't. India actually has taken land from Pak occupied Kaskmir when the countries have been at War - Kargil and Turtuk come to mind. Pakistan's efforts to grab...

    India India - Pakistan Relations

    I should have been clearer. My bad. My point is that Imran Khan or Nawaz Sharif or Bhutto doesn't matter. Their civilian leadership has barely any say in the India policy. Only chance was when Mushy was President and Army Chief simultaneously during the Manmohan era but there were some internal...

    India India - Pakistan Relations

    If Pakistan prospers and does better than India, as an Indian I won't begrudge them that. Some Indians might find it unpalatable. Infact, from what I've read Pak was doing economically better than India right till India adopted the open markets in 1991. I always thought Lanka would be first...

    India India - Pakistan Relations

    Not really. MMS heavily invested in peace and got 26/11 in return. Vajpayee got Kargil. I personally hate everything about Modi, especially his economic and social policies. But he has handled Pakistan well. No point talking unless the talks are about return of Pak occupied Kashmir to India.
