Is India any different?

Lets get this straight, if you do not travel much and have not been exposed to different culture and places you are bound to have stereotypical image that you see around you(media too is reponsible). Mind you we indians are no different with people in Cow-belt thinking Chennai is the place where all are absolutely dark and it is so hot that they cant survive. And people from South and other places might think all in cowbelt are poor and have no food to eat and are illiterate and criminals. The only thing we fail to understand is that we cannot generalise people and stereotype them. I mean you look at this article, I can very clearly evolve analogy that seems to be what most of India thinks about UP/Bihar and what the entire world thinks of India...
