India Shining !!!

Although “India Shining” was the caption promoted by Late Sri Pramod Mahajan to bring his party (BJP) back to power in the 2004 general elections, i guess now is the time this caption fits aptly. Not for any political reasons.. but for the fact that India and Indians are remarkably doing great in the global arena these days. While posterboys like Abhinav Bindra,Ustad Zakeer Hussain, Resool Pookktty, AR R, etc have individually contributed to bring glory to the nation recently, the fact that India is one of the few nations in the world with a positive growth rate adds to the glitter. In fact, India enjoys the second position behind China, in the league of high growth rate countries. (Incidentally, the same ranking figures in the list of most populated countries.. this make me muse if population has a correlation with growth rate.... he he ). Indian IT leaders are increasingly being sought after to be appointed as the IT advisors to presidents and prime ministers of countries including the developed ones. In matters related to spirituality and holistic approaches, the world has already understood India’s prowess. Yoga , ayurveda etc have already become synonymous to peace and healthy way of life. Hence, Its apt to conclude that India has marked its presence in the global scene.... such that the world has started looking once again towards India for answers... I am sure this is only a begininning and very soon we will be enjoying the reverence and accolades we have been receiving centuries back....
Let us strive to make that happen....
