Before we criticise what the world doesnot know about India. Its better to sweep under our own carpet as to how much Indians actually know about the other countries of the world esp. western countries.
Not only that even the Indians living abroad for long, hardly know anything about the country they are living in. Most of them even dont the language or anything about the culture(esp. Europe)
