hooray! the one bit of good news from the chidambaram disaster budget

march 10th, 2007

i read a comment by a poster about the trouble this may be causing to goa's iron-ore exporters, but i cannot help thinking this is good: let us develop our own steel industry. we are not any longer feeding china's steel industry.

for comparison, under j nehru, while the chinese army were building an illegal road through *indian* territory in aksai chin, india was supplying them with rice! that is the kaangress heritage, so this is good news indeed.
