Only one of those is a country. Do you actually think India is better off than South Africa or Botswana (these are actual countries).

Have you been to Botswana? It is a pretty modern nation and a well run country. Lets look at some numbers and COMPARE.

GDP per capita (2017):

India: $1,980

Botswana: $7,894

China: $8,612

Botswana: has a better GDP/capita AND higher ranked democracy than India. Less corruption too (if you look it up). Always good to school yourself - with facts.
