Originally posted by rvsakhadeoIndia is quite a big place to come and look for myself. I wonder how wide are the bounds of your promised hospitality? However there are too many strands to your question (and you are too wide open to attack on these points) so let's keep on topic.
In one single paragraph,you have said so many adverse things about India !
i) Indian govt.is not noted for accountability.
ii) India has got a despicable attitude towards its own poor.
iii) Sikhs allege that Brahmins account for a lot of this(you probably mean the despicable attitude towards poor)
iv)The corrupt aspect of Indian politics is not improv ...[text shortened]... not nationalistic.That statement is not true. Also why drag the Sikhs and Brahmins in this ?
Has the Indian Government failed to investigate and report on the seemingly well founded allegation that Mother Theresa misappropriated immense funds intended for the relief of poverty and ill health, diverting them to "religious" objectives which that Government cannot believe most Indians endorse? If not where is their report?
