My dear unknown Virtual friend, The problem is with India's Political system. A rotten, dumb and stupid Political system. A real piece of shit system. India is a huge country. Don't get fooled by the Mercator Map. The Map creates spatial distortion and stretches out the regions in the poles and makes them loook larger. India is bigger than Alaska or Scandinavia.
50 years of Socialism and caste-based job reservations has frustrated the population and caused Brain-Drain. Even today, india has 300 million people living below poverty line. Corruption is open and brazenly done.
My friend went to Kashi and he told me a frightening story. If you go on an boat ride on river Ganges, and if you happen to carry a lot of money or jewels, the scouts who watch you pass the information to the divers. They come swimming underwater and topple your boat and grab everything you have and allow you to drown,!! Few incidents like these have made even the pilgrims wary of taking a boat-ride in Kashi.

After 5 weeks in India -- this was around '82 -- I
remember that the
only time I felt relaxed was when I boarded the Pan Am 747 and was
sitting on the tarmac at Dehli airport. Although still in the
country of India, I felt enveloped in the womb of western technology
and felt completely protected.
