Why I Love India
In new year this is my first post, today i.e. Jan 1 ,2010,I was sleeping on my bed in Australia ,this question strike my mind. Then I started thinking for a while ,so many thoughts came to my mind I thought of writing a post on it.
Every time when someone is faced with a question ,what our country has given to me, that person should again think what he has given back to his country. Country starts giving us something or the other from the time we are born, first thing our country has given us is the identity i.e. Indian. After that education, food, job, happiness and everything.Now my other question what I have given back to country ,as of now my answer nothing gr8.
Now one more question which haunts me is “what is the satisfaction others get showing India in a poor taste”.I watched this movie “Slumdog Millionaire”.It was a good movie but it was bit over critical about the condtions in India and tried to project only the slums and slum dwellers. After watching this movie one more question which came to my mind was “Why only showing one face of coin”.There is so much of natural beauty,lavish and luxury things,IT and BT companies which have chosen India as a destination leaving all the developed countries, still never these things get highlighted .Is it purposeful or accidental?
Going abroad for higher studies is a growing trend in India but a radical change which is observed in Indian mentality now is “the determination to come back to India and serve the motherland”.Here I want to quote 2 incidents I remember,one of my friend she has done her MS in US and working in US,I asked her one question,”When are you applying for greencard?”,her answer was “She wants to repay her loan and work in India”.In the other incident I asked one of my friend regarding dream country to settle.The answer was “INDIA”.That friend now working as software engineer wants to pursue civil services and work for India.After all this what I realized was “Indians were leaving not because they

    Living in a new country can have its share of difficulties, but at the same time provide insights into a whole new culture. India is known as the melting point of different cultures, each one unique in its own respect from the art, food, religion, language, lifestyle and politics. When I was 15 years old, my father, who is an accountant by profession, accepted a job offer to work for KPMG India. The KPMG branch was located in Bangalore. My parents, originally from Bangalore, moved to Canada in the 1980’s. They were thrilled by the opportunity to visit India and my relatives after a very long time. However, the case of leaving all my high school friends, the food, entertainment and lifestyle behind and moving to country I had left behind when I was 2 years old, was…

    Emigration, a dream that almost everyone wishes it comes true, is a positive forward step that everyone should take if it is available. People argue that each one has to stay to help in developing his/her country, to be with his/her family as life is worth nothing without them, and to avoid racism that is spread all over the world. On the other hand, to emigrate does not stand for only getting away from a bad economic condition, but also it is a step for a bright future that guarantees a higher level of experience, better life quality, and more security…

    Slumdog Millionaire

    Until economic reforms in the late ‘80s and early ‘90s, India’s economy operated under a socialist model. Their rapid state-sponsored reform inaugurated “the creation of a robust global capitalist consumer economy” (Parameswaran and Cardoza 1). Such rapid economic changes in turn impacted the cultural scene in India. Both the Indian people and foreigners were given the opportunity to redefine what constitutes the Indian image. The critically-acclaimed 2008 film Slumdog Millionaire provides an interesting example of an attempt to define or redefine the Indian identity and is used as a central text for…

    Robert Koehler’s review on Slumdog Millionaire talks about how the film failed to touch upon the problems or culture that are truly present in India today. Rather it is, “Boyle’s feverish, woozy, drunken, and thoroughly contrived picaresque also conveniently packages misperceptions about India (and the East) that continue to support the dominant Western view of the subcontinent,” as Koehler states in his thesis statement. He continues in his paper to talk about how Boyle has created a skewed view on India that takes advantage of the westernization happening in India, but over exaggerates and glamorizes many aspects…

    To sum up, there are many reasons that contribute in driving the general population to move to another nation where they in their own personalities believe is better. Every one of these components vigorously depend on every individual's point of view, convincing them into moving to another nation. Immigration has both great and terrible impacts towards the host and sending nations. As the world's fringes between nations are slacken and multi-culturism is being rehearsed all the more regularly,…

    Why Do I Love Pakistan

    • 483 Words
    • 2 Pages

    Everybody loves his country because patriotism is a natural passion. We like the earth where we are born. We like it because it feeds our bodies, illuminates our minds and saves our souls. Here we live among our near and dear ones who share our pains and pleasures. We feel’s sense of security, closeness and companionship. Everything that it possesses belongs to us. Its beautiful valleys, high mountains, surging rivers and its values, customs and traditions all are dear to us. But my love for my country is not only because of these earthly and material things. I do love the scenic beauty of my country. But outer beauty is just superficial and temporary. It can attract permanently only when it has also some great ideal hidden in it. My country has this ideal which we call the ideology of Pakistan. And my love for my country is due to my love for its ideology. Ideology is a set of ideas, beliefs and doctrines that the people of a country want to follow in every field of life. As ours is a Muslim country, our ideology can be nothing but Islam. Pakistan movement was started in the name of Islam. Before the partition, the Muslim of the subcontinent were leading a miserable life in India. The English were their political rulers while the Hindus were their social and economic rulers. They had been living with the Hindus for many centuries. But the two nations had nothing common between them. Their religions, customs, traditions, cultures and languages all were different. They neither intermarried nor interdined. The friend of the one was the foe of the other. The English rulers always sided with the Hindus. After 1857 it…
