What is your take on politicians?

Most of the politicians are the same wherever you go and India is no different. But that does not mean everyone is the same -- there are people who do a good job, who want to do something for the country. Painting everyone with the same brush is not such a good idea.

Is India shining?

Yes, in some ways India is shining. Out standard of living has gone up. The service sector is booming and most importantly there is a sense that we can achieve a lot more.

But then there are also a lot of areas that are not shining. Poverty, education, health are all areas that need a lot of improvement.
