India, without a doubt, is a thickly populated, large and diversified country with many cultures, religions, customs and traditions. APJ Abdul Kalam is the president while Manmohan Singh is the prime minister of the country.
Though it is labeled as a 'Secular' country, it is not. There are so many religion-based riots happening all the year. Muslims don't have independence to slaughter cow as it is the sacred animal for Hindus. There are religious rivalries all over the country especially in north-eastern states of Gujarat, Rajisthan and Punjab. There are violent political and religious parties like 'Har Har Mahadev', 'BJP' , 'Bajrang Dal', 'Shiv Sena', 'Vishwa Hindu Pareshand' and many others who throughout the year try to keep the flame burning between all communities especially between Hindua and Muslims, as they are the major nations within India. But we always hope that some day, this will end and a bright future will come though practically, it seems impossible.

Yes, I think India is more than nice country. And hey, you couldn't speak the unity in diversity about India without speaking one of their founding father: Sir Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru.

About India, what above 100 crores of people in India experience and feel, cannot be expressed in few sentences here. It takes volumes of writings! One thing I may say you about Mohatma Gandhi, he is the father of nation of modern India and an real incarnation of non-violence, peace and truth. You may study the book 'My Experiments With Truth' that is Gandhiji's autobiography. Thanks.

Well if u wanna know more about India - A GOLDEN EAGlE.
A country with variety of cultures and backgrounds. In our country we have people belonging to all types of castes and creed away from terror. We follow several religions like Hinduism, Muslism, Christianity, Boudh grup.The name of President is Dr. A.P.J.Abdul Kalam. And the word is Gandhi not Ghandi, his full name is known by the world and I am surprised as you dont know who is Mahatma Gandhi. He was the great freedom fighter ever born on planet earth, he still lives in the soul of every Indian. And last but not least talking abut countries in border are our friendly country Pakistan, Nepal, Bhutan, China, Sri Lanka, Afganisthan and the whole world.

India is just another country as all others. It was great and wealthy once. Over a period it was ruled by the British, and India lost all its wealth. Gandhi was one of the freedom fighters to struggle for Independence.
India is not a Great country now. But can be if the citizens think to. In present India all are selfish. Previously India was ruled by the British and now it is ruled by dirty politics. No leader in present India is really working for the country. It is for their benefits they have chosen politics to rule.
But still India has time to realize and all people can unite to build India as a Great nation as it was when "The Great Ashoka", Prithvi Raj Chauhan or "The Great Akbar" ruled.
India is surrounded by Pakistan on the Northen East.Bangladhesh and Burma or west. Arabian sea on the East.Bay of Bengal Sea on the West and Indian Ocean on the south. To the north it is protected from The Great Himalayan mountains
