[h=3]India now elite missile club member, China still waiting, says MEA[/h] India on Monday joined the Missile Technology Control Regime (MTCR) overtaking China, whose application for membership of this elite club of nations controlling exports in missile technology, is pending since 2004. A place in the Missile Technology Control Regime is likely to benefit India's space and missile programmes, besides easing access to new long range drones from the USA and other countries. Foreign Secretary S Jaishankar signed the instrument of accession to 34-member Missile Technology Control Regim in the presence of France's Ambassador-designate Alexandre Ziegler, The Netherlands Ambassador Alphonsus Stoelinga and Luxembourg's Chargé d'Affaires Laure Huberty.

[h=3]Chinese paper's editorial says Indians are 'self-centered', 'self-righteous'[/h] NEW DELHI: A day after India formally got membership to the Missile Technology Control Regime (MTCR) - which China hasn't been allowed to enter because of its dodgy proliferation record - an editorial in the Chinese state-run Global Times has called Indians self-centered, self-righteous and perhaps lacking morals. The entire editorial heaps insults on Indians who according to the Chinese paper don't understand nationalism, have no knowledge of morals, cravenly follow the west and are spoiled. The tone of the entire berating editorial has the flavour of a high-school magazine piece, so much so that one is tempted to say after reading it: Jealous much? The editorial is talking about the coverage

Traveling by Ola Lux willl definitely be cheaper than buying, maintaining and traveling in one such car!
During our two recent visits to Chennai it was Ola O lala all the way on all the days. :)
