Definitely better than what the US is doing with its foreign policy towards the Indian subcontinet. The state department's south asian wing is full of ignorant and incompetent idiots.

You surely mean "while European-Americans were slaughtering native Americans and profiting from the slave labor of black-Americans..."

If you think Sweden gives India any kind of substantial money to reduce poverty, you're seriously mistaken.

The work done by the Gates foundation is admirable. But the $1.2 billion was donated to the Rotary International for the Global Polio Eradication initiative, not exclusively to be used in India. In fact, it's not even clear if any of that was used in India at all. Moreover India itself has donated $1.3 billion for the Global Polio Eradication initiative.

NO. The Gates foundation's contribution to this initiative spanning several decades is not very significant.

This is the result of one of the biggest vaccination drives ever. Great work by India's central governement, various state governements, WHO, UNICEF, Rotary International and various other NGOs and volunteers.
