Americans always wonder how can a country like India even function with so many disparities -religious, language, economic etc etc. I strongly feel we have a great future maybe. But things will be slow but it will happen.Sandeshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15680535063144862755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27370479.post-1154372650937052292006-08-01T05:04:00.000+10:002006-08-01T05:04:00.000+10:00How true, all of it.

Living amidst all the noise pollution, the filth and treacherousness, most of us (read Indians) have become CRANKY. <BR/><BR/>I would really suggest travellers to visit India ONLY if they have friends or family here. Or else one could fall prey to some serious danger. Be sure to have much more than enough dough, cause travelling by rickshaws and other cheaper means of transport would only mean having to view all the unhygenic conditions and filth en route to MOST tourist spots. And please make the trip a short one!<BR/><BR/>If no friends and family here, the easist and most convinient way is to take help of the Ministry of Tourism - Government of India, or the Tourism Ministries of each state. This way one would be saved from a lot of fraud, would be spending sensibly and living just about comfortably, even though you might not be allowed to stay at a spot for as long as you wish. <BR/><BR/>What would be great is that you'd take home a beautiful, hassle-free, relaxed India.<BR/><BR/>India has really 2 distinct faces - dirty and IT! DIRTY gets dirtier and IT gets - well - ITier! Fortunately for Mr. Gates, he toured the IT face. Unfortunately for India, the dirty face contains the bulk of her population. And the saddest part? - I dont see how a change can be brought - not in my lifetime at least.<BR/><BR/>Its a pity that MY India which homes such variety, such colour, such heritage and such history has reduced to just Glitter to tourists. Like my mom says, "I love India, but its so difficult to love Indians". <BR/><BR/>A lotus blooms pretty, but IN muddy surroundings. I dont want to say that about the Taj Mahal. That's no excuse.Yipeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11472087602386822489noreply@blogger.com
