Happy Independent Day

On August 15, , India was celeberating Indian Independent Day but how the British media covered this occsion is worth noting.

Mainstream British newspaper have been running 'India at 60' series', while the The Times, London produced an special India supplement and The Gaurdian devoted its entire feature pull out to "The New India".

The Gaurdian India Special's theme was expressed by its cover headline that announced:

"This is the best place in the world to be born right now"

The Indepent's attempted to answer the question

"60 years after partition, why is India is doing so much better than Pakistan"

The pape said, "Now at the age of 60 , India's image is that of an resurgent, confident regional power racing to compete with China and the West".

India is getting appreciated all over the world and this is a matter of great jubilation. What according to Times of India, we lack is real 'LEADERS'. For which its "LEAD INDIA" innitiative
'India seeks her future leader' is a step in right direction.

Let us hope that Indian carpet industry too grows with leaps and bounds in the times to come.
