What really gets my goat is that the Indian Government was quite prepared to pre-empt a UK decision to cut aid in 2010 by taking a vote in their own Parliament to effectively say they no longer needed it. Of course this vote was dependent on the UK Government actually making a decision to cut aid, which they didn't. To me this seems like infantile behaviour and the equivalent of a 'who dumped who?' scenario in International Foreign Relations.
In India Foreign Aid is a sensative subject as they balance (poorly, IMHO) their future ambitions with hard reality. Aid from the UK in particular has implications for Indian National Pride due to its colonial history. Never the less the UK tax payer donations will continue to be accepted by India until our Government decides to stop it, which by happy coincidence
will be the same time that the Indian Government decides it no longer needs it.
