The Indo-Canadian community has been a microcosm of the people of Indian origin living abroad besides reflecting India's diversity.
In India, if you are from the elite, dogs are extremely important. The breed of the dog indicates your wealth, that you are westernized. The cook, another human being, is on a much lower level than your dog. You see this all the time.
India has to be transformed into a developed nation, a prosperous nation and a healthy nation, with a value system.

Indian higher education is completely regulated. It's very difficult to start a private university. It's very difficult for a foreign university to come to India. As a result of that, our higher education is simply not keeping pace with India's demands. That is leading to a lot of problems which we need to address.
Radiation doesn't recognize borders. A meltdown in Japan or India, say, is a danger to the whole world. Wind circulates the radiation everywhere. Water quality is affected. We all eat the same fish. We use products from all over the world - if something is contaminated, it will cause harm.
I am firmly convinced that, in future years, China and India will join hands in playing a more active role in maintaining peace and stability in the region and the world at large and make due contribution to the cause of human progress and development.

My background is from India, and I always get asked, 'When are you going to do an Indian film, a musical or Bollywood film?'
In India, the films are not looked upon just as entertainment. They're a way of life.

We've outpaced Japan and Europe in creating new jobs, but there's major competition from India and China. It's not enough to make income tax cuts permanent.
I think the tradition of philanthropy is far better developed in the U.S. than in India, as is the whole notion of giving away 50% of your wealth while you are still living and not waiting till you're gone.

India and Japan should develop a complementary relationship in information technology.

When Octavia was introduced in India in 2001, it had opened up new segments.
