Are You happy to be an Indian

2:06 AM

     We are living in the country where pizza comes faster than police or ambulance it’s strange, but true. I would be the only person who is not happy about India being an independent country. I reconsider the time of kings and emperor, where doing a crime was considered as a great offense and they had to pay their debt for that, no matter how small the crime was. Moving forward in time when Britishers were ruling India, Our country was known to be the safest and the richest country. They had actual understanding of what democracy is. At least they appointed only those people as leaders who were young and educated well enough to think better for their nation instead of accepting bribe as our illiterate politicians does.

     I would be the only Indian who is not happy to be an Indian, not happy with the way our country is progressing (in fact our country is not progressing at all), not happy with our democratic policy. India has marked it’s presence in history by giving great people like Aryabhatta (invented zero), Sushtra (invented surgery), J D Bose(invented Nanotechnology), then too we are given the tag of the developing nation.

     Indians have capability to play a role in the development of other nation, but not contributing in India's development. People across the globe say that India is the country where education is almost up to zero, but the World's first university was established in Takshila in 700BC. More than 10,500 students from all over the world studied more than 60 subjects.

     My country has stoned its importance in world though I am not happy to be an Indian. I’ll blame only two person for pushing India backwards. They are 
1. Politicians
2. Media (Journalists)

     When ever we switch to our television, the first channel what we look for is obviously news channel. Their basic tag line "to aware a common people” but are they really doing so.
Let’s highlight their most major and silliest mistake 

     1. Considering us a common man.
          -  We ain't a common man. We should be given equal priority as any other higher official people are given. We are special

     2. Their main interest should be to make people aware of happenings around the globe, rather than making money.

I don’t need to explain how hard politicians have tried to disturb the peace position of our country.

Thus I am not happy to be an Indian.

You are correct to some extent I must say.
Except that,

first of all you shouldn't blame only politicians and media. Because to tell he truth, all of us Indians are to be blamed. Not for anything we do, but for our attitude towards our daily lives.
As we all know, all Indians have this "CHALTA HAI" attitude. They don't have the feeling of changing anything. They are pissed at many things, but they won't do anything to change it.
So, all the Indians are to be blamed for our country's stagnation.

Secondly, when we say that India has given this scientist and that mathematician, we fail to recognize that they are not at all the representatives of our country, what they did was not because they are Indians. Their achievements have nothing to do with their citizenship.
That is the only reason I hate it when people count Salman Rushdie and V.S. Naipaul as our "OWN" and fail to think of Ruskin Bond and William Darlymple at the same time...

@ anonymous..
You are very right man, you have a point..
Not only media and politician are stopping us to move further, in fact even the world is not ready to accept that India can ever come up.

If someone does something noteworthy he's not recognized as an Indian, but if someone does some immoral act he's disrespected to be an Indian.

E.g. It happened to Sir Jagadish Chandra Bose.
