prime minister modi has had several meetings with xi jinping.n many statements over the years that he has forged a new relationship between india and china. this sudden action by china -- and it has to be said that it came on the heels of india already being tied up in handling the covid situation and one of the reasons why indian troops were not on the border to stop the chinese was that they were taking covid precautions. china's actions are seen across india as a stab in the back, as something deeply damaging to china and india relations. coming back from here is going to be a long, hard grind. haslinda: what is central to the tensions between the two sides? india has insisted the area belongs to india. how do you read that situation? is a clear border dispute. it is a territorial dispute between the two sides. but what is important is that so far, starting from -- if you do not count the 1962 war, and that was a long time ago, the two sides have managed this dispute rather well. the border with pakistan has been inflamed and a lot of firing

nonetheless, there are pressing questions from prime minister modi.appears to be avoiding the blame so far. >> this is a very popular government headed by a very popular prime minister. the way the government s talked about the pandemic from the first day and the various addresses of the prime minister and his ministers is that it is a global pandemic. which kind of shields the government, by saying the whole world is in this together. the people i have met over the course of my reporting in the past month have also said that the government is doing what he can, because after all, everybody is suffering. but it seems that now, there is some skepticism also creeping into the. because now, people e setting to question, was lockdown a sound economic move as well as a sound move to protect their health? because we have got close to one million cases coming in just 11 days. the numbers are increasing, and increasing at a faster pace everyday. while our economy is in a bad shape. we have the worst figures globally. a growth that is -23% in the last quarter.

do you have any hopes that with not in the modi you can sort this out. look let me just make it clear i do not believe in military solutions i have never believed in military solutions the moment i became the prime minister i extended a hand of friendship to india but the tragedy of india. is india is being ruled by an extremist. it's an extremist government it is it is a hindu supremacist government inspired by the the ideology this is spied by the nazis and what i'm saying the nazi germany what i'm saying all you have to do is look at the history of r.s.s. which basically is ruling india now it was an extremist or good organization r.s.s. tris was outlawed outlawed in india as a terrorist organization they're now control over 1300000000 people nuclear armed that's their tragedy what's happened india or india better than most progress danni's it's not just that are listening to it and it's not what they're doing and push we'd. it's for people in india are the sensible the normal people in india it's a tragedy for there what is happening there but don't

now he has done many important things and his party of course as well so basically prime minister modi has really ramped up foreign investment into india we're seeing very strong inflows of investment from multinationals since he took office and so there's been a tremendous change in foreign investment flows and even this year with a pandemic where the recession. yet there are still very strong flows particularly from u.s. companies coming into india in the 1st offer but year there's already about $20000000000.00 u.s. dollars of commitments just from u.s. technology companies like google and as on facebook and that's because they're very attracted to the consumer market in india which is the biggest consumer market amongst the emerging markets off to china and also because in your husband yet digital transformation that has already happened in china so tech companies are seeing a lot of opportunities as india moves to smartphones particularly e-commerce so that is why tech is very exciting still in india over the medium term outlook budgies is full of it director in asia pacific chief

haslinda: what are the implications of modi's government losing an old ally? as well as the exit of the chairman, a loyal ally of the party and a member of the ruling alliance, it certainly is inconvenient. it comes at a time when the government is fighting many fires, the pandemic is surging, and the country will likely hit the 6 million infection mark. the economy is in shambles. he has a very comfortable majority. losing an ally is inconvenient. it is not something that looks good. we have ramifications in the future. but for now, the government has the numbers of the law house and it is completely safe. it does not have any immediate ramifications for the prime minister and his ruling party. rishaad: thank you. india just came onstream about a minute ago. we were expecting a story with the rest of the region. percent across a the board. backdrop oft this more cases of the coronavirus, aiding 82,000 cases in a single day, and related deaths up to about 95,000 people who have lost their lives to the virus. a lot more coming up. this is bloomberg. ♪ british l
