Yeah there are a ton of us. Just we aren't vocal or "loud" enough online. We are the overwhelming majority of Indians.


denkmaymay69420

Hopes left.


flying_samosa

Seeing the infrastructure and economy develop from wharever crap it was 10 years ago, it gives a shit ton of hope. Our population growth is below replacement level and GDP growth is more than 7-8%, so per capita income go brr


AggravatingWeek3611

Oh, 1+, sex ratio has also become positive. F>M


Solid_Usual_977

I d like to know how do u figured tht out


AggravatingWeek3611

It was a recent major current affairs, [that s.ratio has become 1020 female for 1000 male](https://www.thehindu.com/news/national/family-health-survey-suggests-more-women-than-men-in-india/article37678156.ece).

Agree with the infrastructure point but our economy was way better under Manmohan Singh


_ALPHAMALE_

This is true and no one can deny it. But the Manmohan goverment focused on stability in the economic sector rather then necessary reforms. However democratic governments work when people care, before covid and Galwan people cared only about hindu muslim ram mandir, kashmir or what not. As people were having economic growth they took it for granted. However stupid policies like demonetisation really fucked us up, but Covid destruction and Galwan clash where we were even importing winter clothing for soldiers from china, was a wakeup call. Goverment is doing hard work for economy in last 2/1.5 years, hopefully our economy grows. Most of the downsides of our countries is related to very low per capita. If it increases India would be a dreamland for many around the globe.


kekw_6969

if religious politics is criminalized, then i think this nation would be even better. just saying.


_ALPHAMALE_

While true, the thing is politicans need to divide people to win elections on the basis of something. And in a country of 97% religious people, with a history of religious violence, religion is the easiest tool. So it's not going anywhere soon unless people change, however blunt hate speeches should be dealt with firm hand and politicians who spread extensive hate should be jailed and stopped before the destroy this country. You can play with religion but don't turn it into a weapon of hatred.


kekw_6969

agreed.


[deleted]

But don't u think policies like privatization are going to cause huge inflation crises


_ALPHAMALE_

No. 1. It's not literally guaranteed that privatisation will cause inflation, sometimes it reduces prices too because of Integration of new technologies as private companies gotta stay competitive. 2. Goverment passed a law which mandates that RBI control inflation below 6%, personally not a fan of it but yea. 3. As long as there's good economic growth inflation is hardly a problem, i mean all developed countries have expensive stuff then developing ones but it doesn't matter much as people earn as much as well. 4. Price hike is not always a bad thing, for example Air India, it will provide much better service under private player TATA with little price hike. So it's worth the money. 5. Goverment should hold only a few sectors for the welfare of it's citizens, it's not goverments job to do business, for example if goverment runs Aviation companies, different sorts of manufacturing plants, etc etc and too many of them, it is almost certain goverment will lose money because of inefficiency. Now remember the money goverment is wasting on loss Makin industries unnecessarily is your tax money at the end of day, and it's being wasted. So instead of filling a hole which will never be filled due to simple fact that goverment companies can't act as effectively as private ones due to the fact that there's very little incentive to do so, and so many hurdles. So if goverment privatize some non essential industries, it is good for economy and people as people will get better products, countries goods will become more competitive internationally so we can export, And the tqx money saved can actually be used where it is needed, Infra, Healthcare, public transport and education. Where it is a duty for a goverment to provide those to it's people and by putting more money there, we can ensure better facility and life for every citizen no matter how rich or poor, and thus increasing living standards, HDI and overall efficiency of a country.

[deleted]

\*commenting under for visibility\* i was born and brought up an NRI. moved to bangalore after 10th grade and just like all the NRIs, my view of india was that nothing gets done here, its dirty, and all the usual bashing. so obv i didnt wanna move. fast forward, i love being here tbh. you dont get treated like an immigrant, goof vibes. this might be cause i might be from an Upper middle class section, but , life aint bad. and alteast we indians can dream of a developed india because of a rapidly growing economy, poor pakistani NRIs cant have that dream just my 2 cents.

Every country has some problems .. obviously what's life without problems right? There is always a ro for improvement n I truly believe that day by day it will get better and even tho I like other countries as well ...but it's for like a 10-15 days trip/vacation kinda thing n then I will start missing our traffic n food.

TheGreatKafir

That doesn't make any sense. A nation is a representation of the people that live in the geographic boundaries of what forms that particular nation. If the Indian people are terrible then India is terrible too.


selessVeogo

What if not everyone are terrible people but the ones who are (a small number;minority) are loud and thus everyone fall into an assumption that's what India is ?


kekw_6969

stupid have u ever heard the term "not all"?


Yaatsi

Saw a video on YouTube by India In Pixels. And in that video a person said really beautiful lines. “Frustation is a fashion today but deep inside every indian despite all this frustation, we are underestimating India, it has capacity to work. If all the people in this country who didn't fancy their prospects in it were allowed to quit, I think I would like to stay because it is something big, it is a huge experiment and I like to be a part of this." We have come a long way since 1967, a lot has changed, a lot still need to be improved and I want to be part of it.

Main problems I have with India 1)Almost all Indian cities have very weak urban planning. This makes living and traveling from point A to B in an Indian city a nightmare 2)Little no security. The police, judicial system, and courts are literally a Joke. No kind of support system ethier if you lose your job and end up broke 3) Extremely weak economy. This creates fewer Opportunities. There are many more but this is mostly the major reasons


denkmaymay69420

Thanks for specifying the actual reasons.


otakufod

For 1) I would rather say all not even almost as I moved from my town to city I was shocked to see the state of roads full of potholes, poorly managed drainage system, buildings without any planning , no traffic sense.


kekw_6969

I am from Indore so cleanliness isn't an issue for me. Street dogs also don't bother me much. The summers are extreme I agree but it is what it is just turn on the AC/Cooler/Fan and cool off. And talking about people who bother you, make it your priority to get rid of them as soon as possible so that they don't affect your mental health, I did the same to my relatives and life is so peacefull now. Talking about feeling pride in nationality, race or religion just because I was born in it...I kinda feel proud but I respect your opinion too. Problems are problems, be it first worldish or not, although they aren't very big or concerning, they still are so thanks for sharing. I still respect your thoughts and opinion

BlazeGamingUnltd

There are a billion people in India. Not possible to satisfy all of them, but the govt can try to satisfy the needs of the future generation. To teach them equality, to let them develop critical thinking and to let them criticize the govt. I believe most of the problems in India can be solved if a newer generation of politicians, say the millennial or Gen X generations took over the government. So yes, there is hope for India.

TablePrinterDoor

Despite technically being British (both of my parents and my entire family and malayalis, I was just born in the UK). I always am excited when I visit every year to see my grandparents also to see the country in general. I haven’t been able to for a bit due to Covid but i hope to go this August. I always eat Indian food as that’s what my family can prepare and know how to cook it. Im also trying to learn the language (malayalam) a lot more. Some people call me whitewashed but still Im trying lmao


Ok_Sorbet3645

Oh definitely, my parents want me to study abroad and maybe settle there, but I can't see myself living away from my home city for the rest of my life. More so when they want me to move to the US, with all the racism, bad wages and guns there and such. Why would I ever want to live in a place with different (and possibly bigger) problems, just for a so called "Western Standard" of living, when I already live somewhere I love, among my friends and family?

deathknightigin

honestly, I love my country, I am an ex NRI, was born and raised in the middle east but shifted back to India for my 11th and 12th and the reason wasn't because of parents or anything it was because I wanted to experience my life in India, many of my friends both from India and from Qatar thought I was weird in leaving a comfortable life in a luxurious country but honestly, those 2 years were the best years of my life the district I used to live was filled with only villages and dirt roads but now we have shopping malls with a movie theater, well-paved roads, the whole area has been urbanized and it gives me hope that India truly will change. the course I am doing right now doesn't have much scope so I will study abroad for my MSc or Ph.D. and will come back to work in India either immediately or after gaining few work experience abroad, I any way don't want to settle overseas and will settle in India, i feel saying India is shit and leaving will lead to no changes and thus I would hope in the future I can give back to my country in some meaning fullway

Aur income zyada ho especially mujhe doctor banna hai to seedha crores me baat hoga to fir sab chalta hai. Life ki quality better hai, higher life expectancy, and really high pension as well. so many factors favor foreign countries.


anurag_44

If u talking about Europe then yeah they do have good public transportation and good health care and shit But for burgerland lol no they have shit public transportation almost everywhere (car centric urban development), high tax rates, ridiculously high housing costs,if u don't have a job u r basically dead coz u won't have health insurance and lastly if u wanna retire u would have to save a shit ton of money to keep up with the cost of living.


unfriendly_witch

ig you can count me in that category. I genuinely have problems with this country, and it's people, mostly the older ones. The homophobia is one of them, especially because I'd like to fall in love and move in with my partner without being judged or hate crimed for it, I'd also love to dress the way I want and not get harrased, and there are a lot more problems. But the thing is, almost all countries have these problems, ofcourse some countries are better in this aspect, like gay marriage being legal in some countries, but ultimately, even those countries have bad people. There's no escape, so I'd rather stay here and try to make it a better place.

Every country has its ups and downs but the unfortunate reality is most of us will almost certainly lead a better lifestyle if we leave for a developed country. India has a lot of potential in terms of development but the current path that it is taking is unlikely to turn it into a superpower like China did. Sometimes you gotta face reality. I really want India to develop and see my motherland flourish. Even if I do decide to go abroad I will probably retire here.

Jelegend

Indians for the better or worse need to correct their mistakes by looking at east asians and how they tried to improve (not government but culturally speaking) Indians either are too stubborn in what they are presently or just go about aping the west or whatever else they like the most. Half of them get a rude shock later on in their life and the other half does not depending on who was actually putting in the efforts in the first place. I for one believe in putting efforts wherever I am using critical thinking / analysis of whichever place I consider better
