@host47 shut the fuck up man i know heaps of awesome indian people and i bet they are 10X smarter than you, and they would make you look like the monkey shit for brains

I respectfully disagree. India was subjected to 200 years of British domination, and 300 years of Moghul domination before that. For a country that was subjugated into poverty, in the 60 years of its freedom it's done an amazing amount of recovery, including contributing to the scientific community. On top of that many of OUR jobs are being resourced there because Indians work hard for cheap. It has a huge population. All this could shoot India into the list of top powers in a short while.

@wannabedesi

Just a handfull of people cant do the job.

[wannabedesi]

@cathaylufth Then maybe the Indian government ought to focus it's attention on promoting the return of young minds back to India. I know quite a few Desi here in the US who tell me very often that they want to return to India and make it better.

@wannabedesi

Yes. thats the reason I say. India dosent require population or education. A good administration can do the job for now. For current Indian generation getting educated is flying abroad and earning money for themselves. They seriously fail to understand what education we need to get a gud life. I dont mean to say India is bad ! But thinkk straight where r we now. Under wrong impressions ! That dosent help at all when time stands at dark side.

@cathaylufth America has a very good administration compared to the corrupt government in India, but I can guarantee you that by the time my generation is old enough to enter high level political offices we won't have a clue how to run a country with integrity. This is because the people in my generation and younger don't care to know politics, they don't care to educate themselves. If Indian youth become educated there is nothing India will not be able to do. That's fortunate about the caste.

I pray India must improve too. Think what India has before British & Mughal came down to us. I think that despite of making India Highly educated country its better idea to get good administration. Atleast think of Indian railways, what have they done ? They remained same from 60 years without any significant change. Caste is playing very less game in india.

@rashmishra29 I remember the fogs in Northern India the last time I visited. You couldn't see your hand in front of your face in Agra for the first portion of the day. Any number of things could have contributed to this crash. I know there were train strikes going on too...a worker could've neglected what he/she was supposed to do. Lights could've been missed in a fog. Someone could've forgotten to flip a switch somewhere. It is a sad situation.

@alokraja1 The Hindu population in India is huge. You could rally and protest. For heavens sake, the initiator of peaceful resistance in the 20th and 21st centuries came from India (I'm talking about Gandhi)! You guys should take a leaf or two from his book and start protesting the corruption there. The Hindu population is large enough that if you did protest enmasse I think you could get alot of shit done. And the generally non violent philosophies of Hinduism may help keep things non violent.

@ainsleywainsley He was being sarcastic...

[wannabedesi]

What tiny countries? And as for time, it will take alot to work through the rubble left by the British. I think India has begun and has done well for it's self in 60 years. It hasn't stopped and it most certainly shouldn't stop improving. Yet, it is improving. You have to think that 300 years of having people tell you what to do, what to think is going to be hard to overcome. The best thing India can do for itself is educate it's young people, and continue promoting a casteless state.
