thanks to leaders like raju and his predecessors, india is not really a unified country. there is a great divide between the east & west, north and south. people of different states behave with each other as though they are people belonging to different countries.
I was working in the Gulf a few years ago where the different depts. like sales, finance, mktg. etc. had bosses from different countries. except for the indian bosses, the other bosses treated their countrymen very well. The Indian bosses treated their own Indian staff like dirt and slaves. The Arab and European bosses were more sympathatic to their Indian staff than the Indian bosses to their India staff.
Something is deeply wrong with the Indian culture which we always harp about or maybe it is the 400 years of British rule that has made us hate each other but lick the foreigners' shoes. We have seen it in history. We have seen the movie 'Mangal Pande' wher we cud have easily got independence in 1857 but becoz of some Indian who leaked the news to the Brits, we had to wait for another 90 years to get independence.
