Thanks for pointing out what is wrong with India today. Go back a bit. And you will actually see that while things are bad, they are actually improving. And improving at a very quick pace. Sure curroption is a big problem. But it always was. Conflict over Kashmir is there since India's independence. Naxal conflict in the South is there since 1970s. So your conclusion of "but what is certain that India won't have a congenial atmosphere necessary for stability and wealth creation" does not seem quite right if you take history into consideration. Because things are improving. Some of the things that were bad are still bad. But some of the things have improved tremendously. * Per capita crime is down * Illiteracy rate is down (Yes some schools are very bad - especially in rural areas. But overall, they are better than it was 10 years back.) * Death rate is down. * Infant mortality is down. * Mal nutrition is down (even though there are food scams in some villages) * Per capita income - in both cities and villages - is up. Way up. * Government is actually going to reduce corporate taxes after a year (making things better conducive for businesses). * Trade relations with other countries is way better. Indians can travel to 60 countries without visas now. * Infrastructure is way better. * Standard of living is higher than ever before. * Pollution is worse though. Things are actually getting better. Not worse. But you won't know this if you just follow the current news (which is way too sensationalist in India). You need to see things from a 50 year historical window. I don't see a growing cancer in India like you do. tl;dr: Some of the things that were bad 30-40 years ago are still bad. But some of the things have improved tremendously since the past 2 decades. Very few things have actually gotten worse.
