Not a good example... Brazilians are a mixed race, unlike us. The Portuguese stayed back...
The native language of Amazon Indians was very primitive with no written script unlike the rich choice of languages we have.
And those languages have practically disappeared now... You want the same to...
And why is it that they have no problem with English, but only with Hindi... continuation of slavish mentality I would say. As for Hindi / Kannada, there are people called translators. Do you think Mulayam can even understand official English??
Not as silly as trying to glorify learning the...
And how hasty is hasty??? a few centuries??? I mean its already decades beyond independence...
There is not a single other country which conducts its business in a foreign tongue.
Lasting damage has been done to the country by fake Aryan - Dravidian theories as many Tamils seem to be convinced...
This is just the uninformed opinion of a detached city dweller who knows nothing about the real India...English being regarded as the natural lamguage???:hitwall: Shows you have perhaps never gone beyond the borders of bangalore city..... certainly never to the vast hinterlands of northern...
Which Tamil or Andhra villager understands English??? The commoners in these states know neither English nor Hindi. So, please dont speak on their behalf.
Not that bad in India either...
In most parts you can easily get away with Hindi, except maybe the remote Rural areas. Only the Southernmost state of Tamil Nadu is sometimes a bit too fanatic against Hindi...but a smattering of Hindi with English generally works.
The real issue is that the...
China has been fortunate in escaping direct colonial rule while India was not so lucky... The scars from colonialism run deep and the worst part is that the sufferer is now in love with those scars -- a kind of Stockholm syndrome, and will not allow for surgery at any cost. Continuation of...
The problem is not with English per se but because the entire intellectual discourse in the country has been hijacked by it. The "intelligentsia" seems besotted by it and harbours a proportionate contempt for Indian languages. How can fruitful exchange of ideas be conducted in an alien language...
That is because Nehru was obsessed with the Soviet Model of Heavy Industry led development - all those temples of modern India. Hardly any attention was paid towards land reforms... which is the fundamental step you need to take if you want to empower people and set them on the road to...
Again supports my hypothesis.. Which is why Chairman Mao prohibited contact with Western Influences on the pain of death... so after the pact, and a few contacts with American influences, the Chinese ship turns 180 degrees...Full steam astern.
As if the SIMI guys were a bunch of pacific idealists before Gujarat Riots??:devil:
The SIMI has always been a semi terrorist organization which keeps getting periodically banned. These guys don't need much excuse for floating a terrorist outfit.
The Anti Sikh riots were after Indira Gandhi's murder by her Sikh bodyguards as a revenge against the Operation Bluestar which means Khalistani terrorism was well in place at time of the riots.
They are all nutcases and we dont need to educate them.
More important to educate our own people some of whom have been taken in by Marxist-liberal theories that has made them adharmis.
We first need to study Vedas ourselves from Authentic sources so that we can dismiss the misinterpretations...
I dont think they will. The Chinese mind is an entirely different animal..... They act in extremes:taz:
So one day they decide to ride the Marxist - Leninist bus... they run full speed without brakes... through the great leap forward and the cultural revolution... Chairman Mao's foot at full...
Which media is "responsible" by your standards??? I can understand that you cannot imagine the concept of a free media in your political system. We know that freedom of media comes at a price...which includes sensational reporting...but Indian people have consciously agreed to pay that price...
