Being an Indian
by akshay gupta on Feb 15, 2008 02:55 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Really speaking being Indian is very complicated.
In our country we complicate things and make controversies about smallest thing. All this is happening due to petty matters of people seeking cheap publicity or politicians trying to get a mileage out of any given matter.
E.g. re the flag, so many are thrown on the roads and dustbins once the show is over but a for a person to simply hold it upside down by mistake is a major offence!! Indians need to be simple and go happy people. Too belligerent e.g drivers in our country never give a pass to a turning car or way to even pedestrians ; even to old people and then on the other hand we claim respect for elders. So much of bullshit.
High time Indians did not show off too. You can see lots of page 3 kind saying " EXCUSE ME" and forcing their way while this courtesy is only for the other person to allow. if done it must come with a thank you afterwards. But these are show off Indians. No wonder people talk about us negatively.

What Akshay said is a very serious issue, not at all casual. Anurag, your reaction "What the hell.." says it all. The typical reaction of a rude Indian..decency and respect have gone to the dogs..
