Days in India 3. He lands in Mumbai, meets Akshay Kumar(the future ambassador for the conservatives in GTA, mark my word he will be riding an open truck/van in Brampton, Mississauga asking for your vote for the conservatives in the next election), goes to RK studios and dances with Shamiak Davar.
He is to go to New Delhi and visit the BAPS mandir.
He will be flying to Amristar for the Golden temple visit.
How come he missed my Hindu temple - the Balaji temple in Tirupati ?.
May be he should visit Shrine Vailankanni Church if he wants TK's vote.
May be Guruvayoor for getting the Realones vote.
Is this guy visiting India for economic reasons or trying to woo the Desi vote in Canada through photo opps?.
I cannot believe my tax dollars are paying for this trip.

Sunny Leone a true Canadian DESI now back in India !.
In a luncheon speech to a Mumbai investor audience at a posh hotel, Harper praised the long Indo-Canadian relationship and the huge Indian diaspora in Canada, while emphatically stating that more can be done.
"This South Asian tiger indeed has awoken, and the world is standing in awe," said Harper.

Harper delivered an aggressive sales pitch that stressed both the work that's already been done and the promise of more.
"Between us, our combined GDP is well on the way to $4 trillion. Yet at the moment we are only doing $5 billion worth of business per year. Where we are today is not where we ought to be."

I don't know where he got the $4T from. Combined we are less than $2.5T.
Also govt head meets govt head.maybe govt level deals will be done. like in nuclear field and maybe some energy, resources, pharmaceutical deals. But at private industry level I doubt it.
Canadian businesses are wary of investing in India due to bureaucracy and red tape and chai pani kharcha to be paid here and there and everywhere.
Even Indo-Canadians who have made it here are reluctant to invest in India for the same reasons.
When original Desi folk are reluctant why would non Indo-Canadians wish to invest there?
However there is strong opinion for Indians to invest big here- like they want Reliance and Tata to come here for sure.
There is a medical tourism meet to happen here this weekend. That might spur individuals from here to go to India for treatment. Apollo and Max folks will be here.
