Unpredictable but that's just the nature of the beast. We can either dump it or deal with it. The chances are that we won't have a choice. The wind of change has started and though it's not stoking any major fires as yet but then tomorrow is another day.
65% of India is young and that could be a major storm, brewing at a distance. Many skins will be changed before we see any true colours emerging. So I don't know about world controlling but for next many years, with its bag full of surprises, India will surely remain the power that will control our collective mindspace.”
