This is such a hit piece of a article.

If India wants to install solar cells they can, if they want to compete globally for solar cell production they can. Contrary to the false claims in the article nothing is stopping them.

On top of that requiring a percentage to be produced locally is just asking for trouble in a country with as much corruption is India.

Oh please. It's not solar power at any cost, that will just cause more problems than it solves.

Not sure that I understand the reasoning behind this. Are you saying that if a country has corruption then it shouldn't manufacture? If that's the case, you have excluded 90% of the countries including China from manufacturing.

No I am not saying that.

I am saying requiring it is the problem. Requiring is another word for saying "at any cost", or in other words "with lots of bribes".

I'm guessing they also have an option to leave the WTO? Why don't they do that?
