very well written article, I completely agree to all the points except fourth. We treat guests as God, and every country tries to give its citizens certain benefits not available to foreigners to that land, while i agree discrimination solely onthe basis on skin color is not fair. Even NRI coming from abroad should be made topay the same high fee but should be some value added with higher fee like free tourist guide and premium access etc. And very nicely the root of all cause corruption is left blank I appreciate that elegance.
In the begining every body think so. Whenever their needs are fulfilled. then they think or settled in their hometown. This is normal to Alexondar,the great to the lay man of india. Like President Abdul kalam, when will we achieve cent per cent in education to all, this problem was little by little solved. As a citizen of india, we hope and pray for the same. See when we affeted by natural calamidites,everybody is come to help. What is happen in developed countries,when they affcted by catherina.
I think you have seen only one side of the coin, did you ever get a chance to see the other side of the coin. Try to compare the good things about India, the points which you have mentioned are minimal, India has got a good culture.
Pls do not post such articles about India as it may influence the future generation.
Hello Claude I am an Indian studying in France these days and I find your analysis of India quite astute!In spite of all its advantages, there are many areas where we need improvement! I am positive that it will happen some day. We have come this far after all! You are right abt the image of India in France.The french are really beginning to look up to India now! Bonne continuation en Inde!
The author of this article does not know that when we immigrate to other countries(I am in canada) and talk about inconveniences in these countries,the local people(white/black) they tell us who has invited us here...and they say that we have come on our own for our own good. Though I agree that there are some of the bad things in India and it is improving fast but if you just focus on them..let me tell you there are bad things everywhere in the world.
1. power cut problem: agree 2. indian babus: agree 3. no access to historical documents: agree but irrelevant in context of masses. 4. discrimination against white tourist: DISAGREE. tourists are given a privileged treatment. charges are in accordance to charges which indian people would be charged in other countries. though some places indian are charged less but it is subsidized considering that they might not be able to afford (masses). 5. paranoia about maps: irrelevant in context of masses. 6. and photographs: irrelevant in context of masses. 7. politicians: agree 8. neglect for environment: agree 9. traffic: agree 10. corruption: really agree ;-)
