When the world sees China as the problem and India as the solution in these conflict-ridden times, any acolade from China will be like a poisoned chalice for India. In recent one-to-one confrontations, India has shown that it is capable of standing up to China, if the push comes to the shove! China is obviously rattled!
Bcoz India is not a superpower, not even in same League1 of US-China, or League2 of EU-Russia, but a 3rd rated nation.
With barely $2,700 GDP per cap at $2.7T GDP(smaller than UK & Fr), 15% in hunger, 40% illiteracy, 90% poverty, 700mils still defecating outdoor, 3rd rate military, broken infrastructure, backward India is faraway from been superpower it is boasting since 1998 by its ex-Prez Kalam.

“……….won’t give it the ‘global power’ tag”.
It is not theirs to give.
India doesn’t need ‘global superpower tag’ from Chinese.
Well said
