I live in India and I am proud to be an Indian.
It is beautiful, the people here are very pleasant.
Although I don't like some things about my own country, pollution, population, ridiculous democracy, people here are like, "One leg on the past and one leg on the future, that is why we are pissing at the present!" - RDB

the best part about India is that you will find the whole range of religions and cultures here... around hundred languages are spoken here among which Hindi is the most practiced one... adding more to it, within every 200 to 300 km you will find a new dilect of Hindi... Almost all the religions prevailing in the world are worshiped here... Stillwe can proudly say that we are all united

I've never been to India but I would love to visit it. It's one of the places I would love to visit in the world. I wouldn't mind picking up a few indian musical instruments... they cost a lot here in Canada since there are no shops at my location that sell those things.
I've seen photos taken by an Indian friend and it looks like a beautiful country. I was introduced to Indian culture only a few years ago.. food and music.. great stuff

Well i feel proud to be an Indian, Bu on the other hand if i ponder over this a questions strikes my mind, Will India be the one which it is today if it had not been in the Hands of the British. Let me put it clear with an simple example of the Indian Railways.
The Indian railways is the second largest railway network in the world. The whole world looks upon the Indian Railway system. There are several reasons behind this. First is that India is not a very big country but still the population is huge. The railway system in India is said to have the maximum utilization. ( By maximum utilization i mean, the Railway system is using the infrastructure available to the maximum. )
The key highlight in the indian railways is that it is spread over less region( i mean the geographical size of india ) but has the maximum utilization. Indian railways is split into various zones, starting from the south its it souther railways,Konkan railways and so on. Indian Railways has undergone some remarkable changes in recent past. There was once a period where the railways was running at a heavy loss. That was the time when Mr. Lalu Prasad, Former Minister of Railways took charge. When he took charge it is said that the railways was under a heavy loss. This is simply because the public in India did not use the Railways, rather they chose roadways. The main reason behind this was the cost. Though Railways was running under a heavy loss when he took charge, the cost of the service was much more lowered that it was. This attracted the public and then the public started to use the railways and gradually it came out of its loss. Now that the railway is one of the major revenue generating market for the Govt of India.
Now my simple question to all Indians is that we are aware that the British introduced railways in india when they had ruled our country. If Britishers had not introduced railways in india , would India have Railways today ?? Or would it have been a dream still ??? I personally acknowledge the remarkable changes which has taken place after 1947, but still , if they had not introduces railways will India have one by now ??
I would not say Yes, but i feel there is a possibility that India might not have one if Britishers had not introduced. They just did not lay rails in plains. The Ooty Railway, its the railway which is laid over the hills. And even today there are certain places in India which dont have railway facility just because of their hilly terrain. So i personally will Thank the Britishers for introducing the Indian Railways when they were ruling India .

Don't think India is God's own country. The southern state of India, Keralam is universally known as God's own country. India where the Bal Thackareys and Modis living, is the hell... Lucifer's hell....
