Its appalling to see the negative reviews on this article. Instead of accepting the fact that India has many negative attributes, I was amused and appalled at some of the negative remarks on the writer and the justification given for the problems. Agreed that some of these problems exist in other countried too but that doesnt mean that we Indians cannot take constructive critisicm and take steps to improve them. I know that some of the bigger issues cannot be solved by a single individual but if each of us contributes a little (like throwing trash in trash cans and not on the streets, obeying traffic laws etc) our lives can improve a little. There are much larger issues like corruption, castesim, communal problems, politics many of which we probably we cannot control at our level but if every Indian makes a small effort in improving his surrounding environment we can truly say that we are proud to be Indians.
