I disagree with this actually. The right in India in terms of economic policy is as far left as in the democratic party in USA. The left is further left.

- sameerds 6y agoSure, I'll take your word about US politics. But I don't see a disagreement ... the Indian right still represents the liberal end of the Indian spectrum on economic policy. Whether that is far or near in US terms does not constitute a disagreement.
- walt0 6y agoIt is by no means "libertarian" if the current government has strengthened public food distribution systems and other policies like MNREGA. That is not what libertarian means.
- sameerds 6y agoAh, that. Thanks, I corrected the use of "libertarian" to "liberal" in my GP comment. I am sure that is not perfect either, but should be good enough to answer the original question ... "left" in India is more about economics than liberty.
