meh, why do people even make an effort to make such threads.. The ones who make are the migrants raking it in for their adopted country, who would you know want to have that lifestyle and wealth and bank balance and stuff but mention the "Indian" origin thing to have that "Indian appeal." But never care to return and change the scenario here.
Its a wonder this country functions, given that the cabinet and Government is filled with such incompetent buggers who are openly looting the Public money-Multi billion crores scam in the Telecom, Space, CWG games, National games, to name a few in a year's time. This notwithstanding the fact that the largest deposits and balances in the Swiss Banks comes from Indians..the infamous black money. Inspite of all this, nobody comes out and speaks.
A small country as Egypt revolted and changed the face altogether in a month's time, we have been reeling under first the Mughals and then the british and now the ****tard Gandhi family. And IIT? Name one significant invention or a new design that the much "coveted" IITs have produced in the last 10 years? Not only admission to such institutions are directly proportional to your ability to cram two years of Phy, Che...if you are one of those "backward classes", you got seats reserved for you.. And yeah, 90% of these so called "futures of India" migrate to the US, never to return again except to sell their lands when the old man dies..
So poverty, caste based politics, arm chair politicians raking in billions (some of whom are illiterate and pending criminal cases), no roads, sanitation, infrastructure, EDUCATION SYSTEM---which is like the most retarded thing ever in the entire planet, the cramming robots that it produces, health care, unemployment....Forget about influencing the world, we can't even take care of our own..Some SuperPower India is eh?
As I said, its a miracle this country is functioning..thanks to a group of people who have a vision, a vision of a better tomorrow...The feeling of being "Indian" arises only during India-Pakistan match, nowhere else..As they say, "jo ho raha hai hone do, hamara kya jaata" (Wtv. is happening, let it be..who cares?)
I am all for being positive and such and that every country has its own problems but fact remains, the BASIC qualities, as an Indian or as a country is lacking..If you are still not convinced, India is yet another country struggling to come into terms with itself, feel free to post..I can well write over 100 pages.
Sorry for the rant, meh..but sitting across the pond and talking all gaga is impotence.
