This comment perfectly illustrates the complete and utter ignorance some people over the developing world. It's shameful, you visited India but you learned nearly nothing from the trip.
"One step from the taliban" - seriously where have you traveled ? Have you been to Saudi Arabia ? Do you think India is a country that does state sponsored killings adultry. I have 5 female cousins in India who vote, work as engineers and doctors, and chose their husbands. Do you think that was even possible in Afghanistan ?
"Dog eat dog" - a functioning 1 billion person democracy is a dog eat dog world?
"Better under British rule" - do you have any idea what the impact of British rule did to India ? My grandfathers shed blood, sweat, and tears to fight british imperialist which raped and ravaged our country. Do know about the 10s of millions killed in famines directly linked to British rule? Do you realize the British literally starved to death many of my ancestors ?
Do you know anything about partitions history? Do know that after sucking the resources of India for over 100 years divied up the subcontinent in two weeks without consulting the natives and mismanaged the process so badly that 10s of millions died during partition. Go google the British chancellor in charge partition to understand how disgraceful rule contributed to millions stranded and dead during independence.
"Raping women every day" have you been to South Africa? Indias rape rate is not even in the bottom quartile of rape rates in the world. again it's a huge social issue but to say that it's specific to India is profoundly ignorant.
I'm not disaknowledging the breadth of issues that our 1 billion person country faces, but you have no idea what you are talking about. Go spend a little bit time outside your bubble so you can understand that all the social issues you mention exist across our globe. have you ever visited a developing country before ?
