"A THIRD WORLD CALLED INDIA"

When ramu was a boy people used to say:

INDIA IS A GREAT NATION.

I guess we are too catchy with this notion. 'INDIA- A GREAT NATION". The fact is that we all are self proclaiming this phrase.

No doubt that we have got a very good culture which lay emphasis on family values. Family, Moral, and Traditional values are needed on any given day in any society, mere having those does not make you great. History in itself is evident that we were always invaded by the foreigners. And finally we become slaves of britishers for more than 100 years. Does this means greatness.

Well, even though we might have got independnece, we still have the qualities left in us which we had got when we were slaves. At that time, we were taught that you should not follow ur desires, still we are taught u shouldn't follow ur desires. We are always reluctant to chose our own career. The only thing here people like is to get fat check. If you seem to struggle in our nation, we are fools. An opportunity lost means you are out of battle. People have got their own methods to be successful though it may not be true that they deserve it or not. A perception becomes an ISI standard anywhere you go - schools,college or corporate. Once people have a certain notion about you, that will not leave you till you die. This in itself will make you devoided of various opportunities to go ahead.

Well, the biggest thing, we are still known as a THIRD WORLD. Now what does a THIRD WORLD means:

"A THIRD WORLD IS THAT WORLD WHICH ARE ACTUALLY TRYING TO BECOME A DEVELOPED NATION. IN A THIRD WORLD COUNTRY, POVERTY PRECEDES MORE THAN ANYTHING, HAS A HIGH ILLITRACY RATE AND ARE DEPENDENT ON DEVELOPED NATIONS".

To be honest, we are a THIRD WORLD. The fact that we do not own any technology which are made by the developed nations proves this. A country's progress is determined by how much their eco system is balanced. Eco system will only generate if we have our own markets. And markets will only come if we have our own products. And products are only made if we have TECHNOLOGY. Also, not to mention the trade which markets must choose in the other nation to dictate the world.

All the MNC's in india are serving for the markets of USA. All the honchos more rely on the fact that how well the markets of USA and other developed nation is doing.

They say that we have capitalised on the IT boom. The fact is we are nothing but just a cheap labour. Media hypothises us as a great nation. But the fact is we are called great, have done nothing great.
