Feeling proud of it. I believe the same applies to finance minister Mr. P. Chidambaram.
India is doing very well economically due to Manmohan Singh and Chidambaram. Both helped PVN (when he was the PM) to open up th eeconomy. If not we would be in the rut that was created by the Gandhis.

who kicked all the multinationals out of India in 1977? was it the Gandhis?
who promoted the slogan 'Be Indian, Buy Indian' and all that 'Swadeshi' crap?
Was it the Gandhis?
Why blame Gandhis for not making India a free market economy after Independence? All major parties in India favored a protectionist economy at that time because of the simple fact that our country was once occupied by the British who first came for Business and then went on to occupy our country.
But now it is a totally different world and nobody can dare to occupy India like in the past just by coming to do business.
