Bravo,
Why India was very very poor in the recent past? Because they had closed Economy, having high import duties on imported goods and bureaucratic nightmare to establish business for international companies, to give protections to its local industry.
What you see in TATA or other companies now worth trillions are in current strong position because initially they had government protections for decades. It gave them time to establish themselves without facing the international competition. What Indian companies were producing was junk, like that ugly looking car, built on 50s British obsolete plant bought by the Indians.
India only started to flourish because it opened up its economy. What progress you are seeing now it is because of removing draconian trade regime adopted by the Indians for 4 decades.
Do you want India to go back to the dark days of import restrictions? You think others wouldnt respond and hit back at India by slapping duties and other measures on Indian goods and services?
