and mahindra & mahindra, a auto maker in india, took over plexion technologies based in US, which specializes again in design and analysis of automobiles.

Inspite of all this, again, india is not a developed country which i whole heartedly acknowledge.

okay guys, just give India some break. Whether we like it or not, India has left us behind in getting the world's attention, money and is now being considered as future super-power. Our focus should not be pulling India down, rather push ourselves upwards, how can we improve from where we are, what mistakes India has made/is making so we can avoid them :)

*35% of India's population lives on less than $1 a day, which is comparable to Bangladesh's 36% and much worse than Pakistan's 17% and Sri Lanka's 6%. *

It is India that needs to learn from it's neighbours and pull itself upwards.

In the mean time, the level of poverty deteriorated to 34 per cent of the total population at present as against 30.6 per cent in the 1990s. This tells us that the poor in Pakistan are getting even poorer.

Forget Times, its a straight forwards simple questions if logic pervails... But then safron education makes it difficult to comprehend...

Now tell us what Chini bhai produced in 10 years and what have you produced in 15

China's exports are close to reaching $1 trillion.

India cannot even reach a 1/0th of that figure.

**Powergen shuts India call centres **

Energy firm Powergen is to close its Indian call centres, with staff in the UK dealing with customers instead. It said the move would create 450 new jobs by the end of the year and reduce the number of customer complaints. Powergen began using call centres in India five years ago citing, like many other businesses, the financial benefits it brought. But the firm said it was “not prepared to achieve savings at the risk or expense of customer satisfaction”.

Customer confidence

“Offshore call centres may have their place for certain industries,” said Powergen’s managing director, Nick Horler. "However, we believe that we can best achieve industry-leading customer service by operating solely in the UK. “When customers contact us they need to be confident that their query will be fully resolved quickly.” The new jobs will be created at the centres in Bedford, Bolton, Leicester, Nottingham and Rayleigh in Essex. Customers ringing Powergen will now be answered in the UK though calls to customers will continue to be made from India for the rest of 2006. Powergen is owned by German utility group E.ON.

Yes, he chose to pick out and highlight the part about China and try to make a comparison. Indian's should stop obsessing about China especially when *35% of India's population lives on less than $1 a day, which is comparable to Bangladesh's 36% and much worse than Pakistan's 17% and Sri Lanka's 6%. *

I agree that India should learn from us and other countries in reducing poverty/slums and what not but I think our focus on their bad side is because they are in headlines for their economic growth and being considered future super power, had they been anywhere like Afghanistan we wouldn't be "focussing" on them as much, would we? Leave it upto them if they want to learn anything from us, lets put our focus on our actions, growth :)

old news?...this is not old news. post number 4 and also same old stuff in post no:2 or 3, if i am correct, prompted me to respond. when something positive was said about india, nobody was seeing it. anyways...it was expected rather. so i felt, let's do 'thumka' as someone said.

also,

from the topic, India's per capita income has risen to $620 and has overtaken Pakistan's $600; and the relative gap with Sri Lanka, which now has a per capita income of $1010, has narrowed.

I dont obsess china. I want india to learn the positive things in them, which india is doing.

@Abdali

Ah, mission acomplished even though partial success. I was waiting for Indian outburst…

After so much noise, hupla, yada yada yada this is India in the end where you have mass poverty and starvations… kinda blows the cover, not that we bad Pakis and teh world at large did not know…

Now who was saying India superpower

Nice to know that poverty and starvation of others makes you happy. I am sure you would be lot more happy if there were more poor people dying in India. After all it satifies your ego. Shabash mere achche Musalman. Good job.

Excellent!!! … this is exactly wot i was thinking Captain while reading their tu tu mai mai in posts comparing each other. Captain atleast showed his guts to admit the reality. Im also agree with him coz this is the only ground reality. India has got some status reputation, a some kinda power in whole world thats why other countries atleast think before speaking something against India compare to pakistan. I think India’s media is playing a major role in this n on the other side pakistan main problem is they hate western countries n they have more extremist compare to India. People who are fanatic n not educated mostly they think negative about others, but one thing we cant ignore without western countries Pakistan or INdia could never get success. We will have to walk with whole world. Dont ever think that Pakistan cant do all these wot India has done… Self confidence is must for everyone n ya dont listen to extermist, they r eating our countries like hell… Be a good bacha tu tu mai mai chora karo kuch kaam ki baat bhi kiya karo… Jealousy can never bring peace.:bash:
