Guys what do you think really we should proud to be an indian. WHat we people are doing for our country and what others are doing and what we should do. Other countries are also suffering from bribe, gambling, drinking alcohals, corruption, rap, murder, wars as our country. Then what is the difference between our country and other countries.

I am proud to be an Indian-yes! There are many reasons for it. Yes all these bribery, gambling, corruption and stuff happens in other countries too. Maybe all these happen in India more. We have more poverty, rapes, criminal cases, murdering, smokers, dopers etc etc. But what sets our country apart from the others is the complete opposite of this. India is the most diverse country in the world. We have the poorest person in the world but also the richest person in the world is an Indian living in India. People might still ride bullock cart but we are sending a moon mission next year and a spacecraft to mars in 2015. There are bad parts and good parts. Now you will say that all these good things exist in many other countries but what makes us the best is our diversity, our beauty, our people, our determination, which keeps us going. Think, just think for a moment. India has so many religions, about 200 million muslims, 20 million sikhs, 800 million Hindus, 30 million christians and so many more. All the world's religions are over here from judaism to confucasm. There are more then 500 distinctly different languages. We Indians are no way the same, we differ in terms of religion, language, ethnic groups, dialects, sub dialects, racial group, skin colour, facial features, nationalistic ideas, economical gap, climatic diversity, wildlife, food, clothing, and even which countries should be our allies. Think if we fought over this just like Iraq, or Afghanistan is doing. If Indians started killing each other in the name of religion, and all these stuff. This world would be a very different place. See this unity, instead of diversity and financial instablity among 80% of the population, we still strive to get better and keep marching forward. We are soon gonna be the best in everything and not to forget our glorious past, thriving present and a future where no one can challenge us. We got so many different people that we have all the qualities. Everyone says, even Indians that it is a miracle that India is still a single country after 60 years. No country would've remained united forget progressing had they had such diversity as Indians do. This is what separates us from other countries. We didn't only remain united but we progressed. See even I am different then you are, different religion, language, ethnicity and racially, even our food habits are different. Then how are we the same, we are only same in one way....we come from the same country and ultimately we are Indians. This is the reason we are so different and we are the best. Go INDIA!!!

I am much proud of democratic indian. We as the example towards our democracies throughout the world. I dont think any country will be ofering subsidies to the food and gas as such. Actually those subsidies not to help the families also to develop the economic revolution by saving of money and developing our nation as as independent growthe with economic structure. Also the minimum utilisation of money towards our lifestyle no country will challenge for that. A simple example towards ouar development towards superpower is the media and communication with the fields of electronic and IT out sourcings. Be a proud indian love india or leave india.
