What do you think is the worst thing about India? (and you can't say "nothing")

telemarketers :)
@SW-User well rape does seem to take the fun out of it
SW-User
@looking4thesun well rape is kinda sadly common in India to be honest :/
@SW-User I have read that.such a shame
SW-User
Sexual assaults, too many people, traffic...

Hard to say for certain having never been there. Yet I can see poverty being a serious problem given the low ranks in the caste system. Which "could" lead to other serious problems as well. Corruption "could" be possibly wide spread as a result. Yet I do not know this for certain.

That we are not united as one, we are based and baised on religion/ caste and that gives rise to stupid politics and no realtime development.

We think everything is to be done by Govt but we don’t want to do our bit/ contribute.

Sick mad guys who rape girls.
I do not know. tho i have and still study the history , It will not be till I spend time there, meet people listen and Learn.
i am concerned about some of the violence, and the sexual oppression ( of those that do NOT wish it)

I dream of my visit.

Incest. The cast system.
SW-User
@abe182 Incest is not common here, It is because of the social, cultural and familial structure don't give favorable ground for such thing. Incest happens, I've known such cases, but all were rape cases, almost always guy is forcing himself on the girl. But cousin marriage is common among Muslims. I had a friend at work, whose parents are actually cousins and they were perfectly fine with that. -_- Though it has decreased a lot.
I think the biggest problem is this unending waves of sexual violence. Now, that does happen here.
SW-User
@SW-User I wouldn't say its non-existent in Hindus.. I mean I have known people who are Hindus to have had incest as well - Incest isn't only about marrying someone within the family btw
SW-User
@SW-User People if saying they had incestuous stuff, they are bluffing. Those who really do that, don't share it to others. It is a common sense. This wont happen in the most liberal countries too, certainly not in India which takes incest as a criminal offense. A few exceptions are preset. I work as a journalist for a reputed news outlet. We get enough news from multiple sources, to know who are doing what. And, all the cases, Ive come to know, those were rape cases, except one where the sister got pregnant and brother got arrested. That stuff did seem consensual however, the girl denied it before cops.

@SW-User 😄😅 na leave Apu in the Kwik-E-Mart.

Indians are racist and there is no unity among people.
SW-User
@SW-User that's kinda interesting - what makes you think that?
SW-User
@SW-User Because it is true. China is one of the rarest country that actually maintained a strong union among people, India never had that and pretty much that is why India suffered most too as foreign invaders always used Indians against Indians to conquer India.
SW-User
The pollution.
SW-User
@SW-User I wonder if Indians have finally had enough of it.

I saw a cow eating garbage alongside the road. That to me doesn't say "revered".
SW-User
@SW-User there's been efforts but then there are also people who don't really follow it so its a process in making and much as we would like to be on the better side, we are woefully far from where we ourselves would like to be
SW-User
@SW-User It is easier not to care, until it comes to affect you.
