Written by a Pakistani journalist about India

Bravo, for the writer to have the courage to write the facts. Indian should also follow the great things from other countries like good work culture so that  Indian public sectors can also compete with the companies of Ambani's and Azim Premji's.

Proud to be , " I" - Indian.
Thanks for referral, Manish.

Only a jealous comparison of a neighbour.... They can never come out of agony unless they give up hatred... Shri Krishna is with us...

Our INDIA is   a great   country & i feel there can be no comparison between India & Pakistan in any terms.Hope we just live in peace thats all

Thanks! 4 the info.

The article is more of forlorn commentary on Pakistani affairs rather than appreciation of Indian economy or Indian billionaires.I appreciate the forthright comparisons.
Thanks, Rohit for referral.   

Mr.Manish Kumar you have brought out the valid information about India and it gives very encouraging sense of situation in India. Pakistan has to take note of it and to concentrate on its country's development instead of poking its nose in the affairs of others. Thanks Mr.Manish Kumar for sharing the useful information. 

Thanks Manish. Interesting, Informative, outspoken. Statements by Afridi, my friend is only boyish and have no depth. Keep your focus. You will win. 

Fantastic information. Thank you very much. Proud to be Indian. We have to use our this good things for India's growth. If we are serious about our growth then definetly we will be the superpower. Is the responsiblity of our leaders, burucasters & we the common man. 

Thanks for sharing the facts....

Wonderful share.. nice thanks

It is very true. We focus on religion and neither spend time and money in devising ways to kill our own and everyone else over religion. We are united. I am Being proud of being and Indian. We believe in "live & let live" philosophy.

Thanks to all for making my post alive again.....

great article!!

IN TODAYS HINDUSTAN TIMES (PAGE-17) THE PTI NEWS - AFRIDI SLAMS INDIA AND ITS MEDIA. THIS NEWS IS GIVEN.BUT THIS ARTICLE Written by a Pakistani journalist about India HAD GIVEN SLAMS AND ANS TO HIS ALL HIS PROBLEMS 2007 ONLY.

Just one observation - While in India enterpreneurs have successfully established business conglomerates keeping pace with the global trends and despite government being their, in Pakistan the military leadership never provided the paltform for economic growth and prosperity. 

A very brief and solid answer to the Pakistani journalist's question "What is it that Indians have and we don't?" is:

INDIAN PEOPLE THINK TO DEVELOP THEIR NATION WHILE PAKISTANI LEADERS (not the majority of their people) THINK MERELY TO SERVE THEIR OWN VESTED INTERESTS AND NOT INTERESTED EITHER TO DEVELOP THEIR NATION OR TO DEVELOP THE PEOPLE OF PAKISTAN.

My belief is, if India, Pakistan, & Bangla Desh become the real friends, even the Western countries would not dare to think to disturb the peace in these countries. The terrorist problems would not arise in any of these three countries. The recent Pakistan's tragedy of bomb attack on Pakistani Shrine by Talibans and consequent death of more than 41 people, in tself, is an example how the innocent Pakistan people have been made to pay for the sins of their leaders in encouraging terrorism. They should not think that they would not be hurt by the same thorns, which they have sown for others. They need to be made aware of the Indian proverb "BOYA PEDD BABOOL KA AAM KAHAN SE PAYE," which in fact Pakistani people very well know, as they already have the same culture as readily admitted by the Pakistani journalist, they having been the erstwhile part of undivided India.

But, the question arises, when wisdom would dawn in the minds of the Pakistani politicians/army.

This is shit, in terms of Capitalism, where people are dying in hunger and wretchedness, and these so-called billionaires are reaping the rich harvest of the poor, the nova-rich are getting richer day by day, and the country's politics got tangled in the web of these billionaires, there is no doubt that India is the next destination for the Capitalists..this is sad... 

The reading makes me proud to be an Indian.

Great! Especially when it is written by a Pakistani. The questions posed are a reality check for Pakistan's three M's -- Mullahs, Military and Markaz.

amazing facts,,, thanks

Really we are proud to be Indian .... we should appreciate the writer 

TNX. FOR POSTING SUCH ARTICLE...

I REALLY FEEL GREAT ABOUT INDIA...

HOPE MORE SUCH KNOWLEDGE SHOULD BE SHARED  THROUGH THIS PORTAL....

The problem with PAK is well documented. It needs to amend its constitution to make it a true democracy and secular. Will the Imams and army allow it is another question.
PAK should focus on Education, Industrialisation and partnerships with multinationals to grow faster. India should take active part by lending its helping hand in all these fields. Educated and industrialised neighour with good trade relations is any day better than autocratic and army ruled nation.

Think have received this in mail.. still .. thanks..

Admire these facts! thank you sir.

Proud to be indian!! Thnks so much nitin sir!! for sharing this facts!! I hope both countries nourish their relations and benifit mutually!!

pakistans 150% of their GDP on defence ,
they bitch behind the backs ,
there only reason of living is a piece of land called KASHMIR
these three qualities , indians don't possess.

I believe that Pakistan should not focus on defence.  No one is threatening their existance.  In fact, if China and Pakistan don't force India to add to their arsenal, the money saved is phenomenal.  Both China and India can build Pakistan, Shrilanka, Nepal, Bangladesh....... fairly well through savings in defence spending.  

Pakistan should focus on economy.  They need a Manmohan Singh (not the present Prime Minister, but the 1992 Finance Minister).  The Pakistan Army has to assume developmental role not regimental role.  

They should not get and they should not look for easy money (US, drugs etc.).  They should husband their natural resources.  

I have always believed that Pakistanis are entrepreneurial.  If they focus on right areas, they can come up very well.

this is really astonishing aomeone from pakistan wrote an article like this... this shows how they actually wanted to be like india....

This article by By Dr Farrukh Saleem, from Pakistan, is truly astonishing. We, as their Indian cousins have to help them to come out of the cruel hug of their own people. To do this Indians need to provide people of Pakistan more love and affection. Poverty and backwardness is very painful, which our own cousins are facing now. The only solution is LOVE THEM, even though they hate us, still LET US LOVE THEM. One day or the other, sooner or late they will realize the TRUE LOVE from their Indian Brothers and Sisters.

Mind blowing article Mr. Aras !! Thanks alot for the reference..
The  Indian way of life provides the vision of the natural, real way of life. We veil ourselves with unnatural masks. On the face of India are the tender expressions which carry the mark of the Creator's hand.

Good article, thanks for the referral...........

I have worked with Many Pakistanis as colleagues and have found them extremely courteous and truly down to earth and good at heart.They adore indian films and also discuss politics.I have seen that they dont think of India as a enemy.


They all know that what is seen is just plain politics played by a very minute percentage of people to further their own interest


We in india incliding Muslims  are carried away& or rather systematically brainwashed from childhood  by the news and propoganda of pakistan which I feel is far from true from a pakistani comman mans point of view.My perception changed after my interaction with them on day to day basis with literate as well as semi lliterate.like us they also yearn to live and die peacefully.I am not exxagerating anything but placing my facts .

Even in India we have politicians and certain type of peculiar people who organise crimesand kill people in name of religion we too have organisations who are religion oriented(Actually disoriented)fanatics.

I feel before we judge anyone-Person/community/culture or any policy we need to have a close touch/indepth knowledge with the person/community/culture or policy so that our opinion will not be aired with half knowledge which is again dangerous.

Its the same with our culture,westerners find it peculiar,unrealistic and too mild when compared with their own.They also ask us why we states dont get along with each other/people of diff languages look at each other as aliens?when we are all indians.
I will give an example here-We have English people from england who are buddy buddy with lots of Irish people.History has it that there was so much terrorism from irish IRA for many years in england,but they dont think about it twice when thay all work together talk politics(they do have healthy verbal dialogs on The past but end it up with a laugh!!)They know that it was the politics/royal policies etc which was the problem .

I feel that what India needs to focus is not on dollar billionairs but people who can make India a better place for majority of population-Sons of soil farmers ,not thwart them and become  billionairs(where will you take it?)

No comments. Thanks for the referral.

Its interesting to see, that Pakistanies are waking up on better things in life. Whenever, I see Indians discussing Pakistan, I see just the same thing. I wonder, why is Pakistan so special in our media? Pakistan is just another Bangladesh or Nepal or Bhutan. By and large, Indian society has risen in status from the society of these nations. We may still have similar problems in some parts, but the approach, resources and solutions to them are hopeful. Societies of these nations hate India and do little for peace and prosperity. However, we as Indians should understand the difference and believe the facts of this article. To add to it further, India also trash its leaders for incompetency. 

Thanks for referring. This only shows how Pakistan's belligerent and negative approach has not helped it in any way. From India's point of view, this should not lead us to complacency. Instead of comparing ourselves with Pakistan, we should compare ourselves with the countries where more efficient and corruption-free administration is available; where all the people are patriotic and unified; where crimes are almost impossible; and where better environment prevails.

stunning article...........this how much guilt and pain they have in the mind....
