I am an Indian so i have all the required rights to imagine about the India of my dreams and i am also certain that no optimistic Indian would like to imagine an elephant as a symbol for India in his or dreams. By all measures i consider myself an optimist, so is it that the image of a roaring tiger did not come to my mind while i was writing this blog. Certainly not, it could have easily come to my mind but then also i think that an elephant would be more suitable to describe India.Why?
Roaring tiger would have been the best image to depict India's 9% annual growth rate and especially when we come across news items like TATAs buying out FORD's brands more than often. But wait there's more to the story. Has anyone till now pointed out that even in the midst of a global economic recession, leaving aside few hiccups, India managed to walk steadily on the path of its growth and progress. This very feeling makes me proudly proclaim that Indai's growth story has been that of the elephant.
Our (economy) has been growing steadily and firmly without being threatened from global recessions which have now and then paralyzed the western world( the reader must remember the 2001 dotcom burst and 1997 Southeast Asian Economic crisis). This motion of India which is not fast ( like that of China) but is surely enjoyable for all the Indians. We the Indians are still in the process of dismantling age old shackles which inhibit our growth but once we do it there is nobody to stop us . We must enjoy each and every moment of our growth story as the elephant does in its movement. Beware world.........we are not roaring tigers but our growth is here to stay.

I fully agree with you that Indian economy is doing well in spite of the global slow down in the west. But still we need to consider some factors. The growth has been concentrated in some fields specially services. Also Industry has been growing in double digit but agriculture which employs more than 60% of Indian population yet needs to be grow. Agriculture only contributes to around 18% of total GDP. It must rise as accordance with other fields.
The growth is good and Indian economy is doing good but even then the growth is not multidimensional. Softwares and other industries are really booming but in the fields of aviation, computer hardware and electronics India is lagging behind and besides that its a long time since Green revolution. India needs more Green and white revolutions and that too every time our technological prowess in these fields lag behind the world.Then only our 'Elephant' would be healthy and strong enough to march forward in a convincing and unshakable manner
