Don't think it's just in India to be honest. I think society in general seems to prefer 'ghosting' people more than saying no now. Personally I suspect the internet and the general increase in invitations/transactions/communications probably had an effect overall. If you're flooded with requests and invitations and applications, then it can easier to just 'ignore' everything than to actually come back with an answer. Well, and email I guess. Seems like people are treating everyday communications like emails in their inbox, something to just pretend doesn't exist if they find it awkward or annoying to deal with.
