India move your own trump card
Welcome the opportunity to march to Atmanirbharta jaldi-jaldi. America will harm only EU, which had defaulted on “hafta vasool” for American security provided to them. If India revises salary structures for talented persons upward rendering allurements from America unattractive, we will attain our goal with super speed. We have grown in spite of GATT, UNCTAD, Globalisation- weapons to keep countries suppressed forever and become only a market for their products and services. Were we not exploited by hyper-charging developing countries' producers for consultancy, drawings, designs, machinery and raw material? Only used machinery, outdated when sold to us technologically, was given to us at exorbitant prices. In collusion with corrupt politicians-Babu nexus, India always suffered. The truth is that we were not allowed to invest in R&D. However, they forgot that we are a real superpower intellectually and the nation grew in spite of this trinity of the anti-people forces. Our SSI, KVIC and informal sector kept the graph northward! It was only in 1991 that the SSI sector was irreversibly damaged under pressure from the USA and its crony multi-national institutions. Every challenge posed to India from 1948 to this day had only woken up the sleeping lion called Bharat. It should not take more than 6 months for India to recover the loss of revenue due to tariffs if we decide (1) not to interfere with price mechanism of private industry and; (2) stop free gift of products and services but let them be honestly commercialised (pharma products on one hand and HMT watches on the other). We have to scale up each product to the level of MS etc. type companies.
