Interesting

I can understand the confusion of a lot of people, especially the older generation, when it comes to why the writer is saying some things. I do agree that there is some ambiguity in the article about the stand of the writer, but I also do think that it is not necessary for a writer to put forth a strong stance or provide all the answers to all the world's problems.
This is a very well written piece, and seems like a good step for us Indians to take, for we seem to get too emotional and belligerent about most issues, refusing to see the grays between the black & white.
But, I repeat, considering they've witnessed a lot more than us, I understand as well as respect the older generation's refusal to concur with everything that has been said, for somewhere, they are right too.
Lastly, I would ask all my country people, especially the younger lot - the future of our country - to develop the strength to see the bad in ourselves and the good in others; for that's the only way to improvement, and improvement is the best victory (if that's what we want).
