Cringe article from Russia Today. Reading through it, I'm fully certain, that it was written by a Jai Hind.
There is a list of mediocre or non-achievements by India that has been listed as "confirmation" that India had become a Supapowah.
1) Landing a probe on the South Pole of the Moon. No mention about that probe freezing to death. No mention that Modi and the Jai Hinds laughed at Russia's failure to race India to that same part of the Moon.
2) World's first brother-sister chess grandmaster. What has this gotta do with becoming a Supapowah? What about achieving some significant success in the Olympics?
3) Successful 'Jugaad' rescue of 41 trapped construction workers in a collapsed tunnel that is under-construction near China's Aksai Chin. Its great that India had successfully rescued people from a collapsed tunnel. But non-superpowers had done it too.
4) Modi's Supa-dupa G20 presidency. India is still so god-damned reluctant to surrender the presidency to Brazil. LOL! The G20 is a G7-controlled club for economies that are not in the G7. India is in that club, and is so eager to become the G7's "Sheriff" of the Global South. Pathetic! Just because India managed to avoid directly condemning Russia in the final communique, India thinks it had defied the West and become a true Supapowah. What a joke!
5) India surpasses China in population. This is actually a failure in population control. India has a larger population than China, but it had neglected to develop its human capital. The Jai Hind writer claims that India can now take manufacturing from China. LOL! India can't even take manufacturing away from Bangladesh, Vietnam or Indonesia. Large population does not always mean becoming a manufacturing powerhouse. If that was true, then Nigeria and Indonesia would have been greater manufacturing powerhouses than Vietnam, Japan, and South Korea.
6) A new and ugly new Parliament building with an Akhand Bharat map. If new parliament buildings make superpowers. Then we are gonna have superpowers everywhere!
India is just so obsessed about calling itself a Supapowah under Modi, that it has become his regular slogan. Only a joke Supapowah call itself a superpower and then urge other nations to acknowledge that. India had achieved what many smaller nations could not achieve, but they are still mediocre compared to what true superpowers do. Much of India's economic and technological achievements these days are riding on the momentum of decades of Congress's nation building. India today under the BJP is prioritizing religion over science in education, and is dismantling what little rule of law that is left in its business environment. India will likely peak in the near future, stagnate for awhile, and then start to unravel, as its contradictions start to become more and more serious over time.
