It was indeed a proud moment for us when United States president Barack Obama showered praise on India’s growth and development. Mr Obama’s address to the business community instills a sense of pride in every Indian. We have signaled to the US that we can create jobs for its citizens. This was not the case, say 15 years ago. India was such as a country of begging bowls and under nourished children. Today, the US is looking at us as its partner. Let us hope the trade ties will benefit both the countries.
Obama seems more interested in creating jobs for his countrymen. His visit to the Taj Mahal Hotel was in itself a powerful message to terrorists. But India needs is not just a strong and vague verbal message. It needs a clear statement against Pakistan and positive action forcing the country to stop terror attacks on India and end cross border terrorism.
President Obama’s remark that Mumbai is a symbol of the incredible energy and optimism that defines India is indeed a great tribute to the people of the city.
