In schooldays, I was brainwashed to think patriotic thoughts. Today, I don't quite understand what India means to me or otherwise. I cannot think of a political party that thinks about India. I cannot think of a a newspaper or any other medium that is really committed to India. I have a feeling that an average Pakistani is much more committed to Pakistan, whether for religious reasons or otherwise. An average Indian citizen isn't. Perhaps, this has happened because Indian society has been dominated by leftist thinkers who don't believe in a Nationa, certainly not in India. Perhaps, we Indians fail to acknowledge the contribution of the society to our individual progress.
