Why I Am a Businessman and Why My Employees Are My Heroes

Hmmm. I agree with the sentiment, but talking about India's lack of infrastructure and then quoting Ronald Reagan seems a bit silly. In most of the world, the state, rightly or wrongly, takes care of the infrastructure. To say that a particular government is bad doesn't justify the generalization that all government is bad. What about Germany's infrastructure? Sweden's? Japan's?

Personally, I would prefer more privatization of infrastructure (e.g. toll roads), but I have enough sense to realize my rather libertarian views are the definite minority and they have not been implemented on a wide scale to the point that I could demonstrate that I am correct.

Generally, speaking if you're thing is being a businessman it might be best to stick to talking about your company, your market, and your customers. Veering into political statements generally just undermines the very positions you're trying to support by making you look uninformed. Just like when politicians talk about Silicon Valley.

Could it be, possibly, that the roads are broken not because Indian government is lousy but because India as a whole is dirt poor?
