Probably to get vaccinated and go with someone. Never alone. I believe they have some nice places there

You’d probably need jabs for India.
You ever been interested in the Far East? Thailand? Malaysia? I can vouch for those - absolutely beautiful.

Welcome to India. Its a nice safe place. Dont believe the negative stories. Having said that, its always better not to try solo trips to remote lonely locations. I suppose thats not a country specific warning. Applies to most countries. Try package tours to get guided and safe trips.
The country is full of tourists in the tourism popular locations like historical places or religious places.
What interests you?

God. Some of the horror stories people mentioned in the comments make me want to take a trip.

If you're traveling to India, travel south. Kerala and Tamil Nadu. Decent people, respectful and great food. Also try the North East. Avoid everything else.
Been to India. Lovely food and people. Travel in a group and stay in reputable hotels. Use only bottled water even to brush teeth. Its safe provided, you dont do silly stuff like go into unknown areas. Like any country

Don't because they are shit holes.

Don't!.. That doubles down if you are a woman travelling without a male companion and doubles down again if you are perceived to be Christian, in either country..😷

@thevixen To me, no more scary than travelling or living in some parts of America, with mass shooting and gun violence pretty much daily. Thats just not something I am used to, and puts me on edge. No way to spend a holiday.. But its " normal" for the locals.😷

@whowasthatmaskedman can you share the news clips you mention. Of course you are free to have an opinion. Dont tell me people dont get mugged walking alone in the park in the "developed world" .
Children dont get shot in schools in india or pak. It might be "normal" some other countries.
My point being very very isolated incidents do not make the country unsafe. There are far frequent instances that do not make other countries unsafe.
Stay home stay safe.
