I&#39;ve read almost 600 articles on India&#39;s rising prowess and Bush&#39;s visit to India. In fact, it was too much of India that I forgot what all I read and where all I read.

Both nations have lots of similarities, yet they are strikingly different. Thus, the comparison is very interesting and presents two entirely different spectrum of choices.
