China is not I think a country which does not regulate, but there is a difference between the Chinese system and the Indian system.

Let me say that I think the economic history of the last 150 years clearly shows that if you want to industrialize a country in a short period, let us say 20 years, and you don't have a well-developed private sector, entrepreneurial class, then central planning is important.

India has remained a full, functioning democracy.

I am not very good at statistics. I am also a poor thinker.

I do believe that India is a unique case. And you need I think exceptional skills I think to incorporate Indian into the world nuclear order.

I have always believed that the ultimate purpose of economic policies and development policy is to meet the basic needs of our people. And for that, we need a fast-expanding economy.

China's influence is bound to rise.
