Dampening note

Devangshu Datta makes a dampening observation in rediff.com 's business news.
Our PM says we need $150 billion worth of investment to be made in next five years in infrastructure. Yea right ! And your partners will allow you to do that Mr. PM ?

Making grand statements has been customary in India as far as political parties and especially Congress is concerned. Congress has been plain lucky (or is it manipulative) that media buys its statements on face value, unlike the step-motherly way it treats the BJP.

Anyways one can only hope that Congress can do something about infrastructure development and take out sometime from its busy schedule of appeasing the minorities and demonising the BJP.
