When far away people start looking from their own limited & flimsy eyesight and think what we need & want, it really starts getting depressing.But India does. Its companies are more and more powerful, like China 20 years ago. Its army is more and more poweful like China 20 years ago. Modi is having much deeper relation with much more countries especially in the arabic region. Modi has develop its own road toward Europe.
Modi doesn't want the road of US nor the one of China.
Case in point, the very same, our PM, Narendra Modi party BJP is running government since at least 2 decades in Gujarat and they have not only released the multiple gangrape convicts (not alledged, but convicted in full court) and but also garlanded by BJP's elected representatives and RSS (religious parent organization of BJP) with full fanfare. What to make out of it?
Now somebody who might not have lived in India enough, don't know cultural, social and other factors which make most impact on local people's thinking, and then the person starts framing a political diagram, to his/her best understanding and claims it's "The thing" happening. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Being powerful isn't equal to what's good for people and society.
