The myth that Indian economy was 20% of the world economy!
There is an English adage which says 'Where there are fools (to believe), there are scoundrels (to fool them more).’
A scoundrel said India's GDP was 20% of world's in 1700 and fools believe it. Unfortunately even our former PM Mr Man Mohan Singh uttered this statement once, which shows the extent of idiocy even among the educated Indians. Also these iidiots without their knowledge admit that Mughals (Akbar-Jahangir-Shah Jehan- Aurangzeb) created this great economy during 1550-1700.
To put things into perspective, a primitive economy's size in based on population—on the number of hands and legs—with other factors weighing little. If there are 1000 people in a Country A, then there will be 1000 thatched houses, 1000 bowls, 1000 spears, 1000 cheddis, etc.
In 1700, India’s population was 10 crores and the economy size was 20%.
China populations was15 crores and its economy was 30% of the world economy.
British and French populations were 1 crore each; so their economies each were 2% of the world economy and so on.
After 1700, western economies expanded dozens of times, due to industrialization, compared to the Indian economy, which did expand but just 3 or 4 times.
If Indians (including MMS) shed just 10% of their idiocy and think, they understand that here the great Indian did not shrink but the western economies expanded rapidly after 1700.

better learn some addition and subtraction before commenting, and have facts in your brain. BSP has only 19 MLAs and BJP has 28 MLAs so obviously who has better chance , in addition one each of SP and BSP in Jail and are not allowed to caste their votes. So BJP has better chance to win if not in first round then on the basis of second preference vote in second round. You should not jump on conclusion and start abusing BJP as taught by Rahul.
Cross voting by elected people's representatives (MLAs) shows their true character of opportunistic. These people are sold for huge money and can vote to any party/person for money. This is the true picture of Indian democracy.
