Although India's political scene is riven by factions, Congress remains the strongest national force, and the Italian-born widow of former prime minister Rajiv Gandhi rules it unchallenged. In the world's largest democracy, she's queen.

    I find it amusing as to why Pakistanis on these message boards carry opinions about India's internal matters. Or for that matter India's global imagine. Most, if not all, Indians are least interested in Pakisthani public opinion about India when it comes to its internal matters. Primarily because all Pakistan ever seems to carry about India is Neighbor's envy and resorts to heinous terrorist attacks against innocent Indian civilians, knowing fully well that in open battlefield it will lose a war with India just as it did the last three times.
