@bluesa- It is good to hear that Bollywood movies and sport of Cricket and Taj Mahal these are the things which make you think about India. You see problems of poverty, pollution, traffic and population are there in every country. India is a vast country and it is the largest democratic country in the world. It has been progressing well and gradually trying to touch contours of a developed country from a developing country.

I have many friends who travel to and have lived in India. I know many persons of Indian roots in the United States. I keep up with news of India and watch Indian movies. I would love to go myself but do not know if I ever will get there. When I think of India, I think of festivals and great beauty. I think of wonderful food and a rich culture of many diverse types. I think of the many animal and wildlife that roams wild in India. India is one of the oldest democracies one earth. I am fascinated by the religions and spiritualities. I think of a long and difficult history. i also think of overcrowding and over population. I think of heat and humidity. I think of many conflicts especially religious conflicts. And unfortunately, there is corruption. So my perception is both good and bad. This is true of all countries and of all peoples.

I loved your answer , the generic view that you represent is quite true, and i really liked the fact that you presented the fact that when somebody speaks about India its not just about festivals its also about corruption and such obscurities, that is the darkness prevailing in India behind all the colors it shows to the world. And that is where we need to grow. What a true response!

The question is too big. An intelligent answer would be too long for a comment.

Surely sir, we cannot present our views about a country in few lines, or as a matter of fact there even a book would be less, but i am just curious to know what comes first to your mind when somebody says INDIA.

In India we experience all the four seasons ranging from scorching hot weather to bone chilling winter. It has indeed a chequered history and it is the largest democracy in the world. Yes, Indian Cricket team and its players are famous all over the world, specially where Cricket is played. India is second best cricket team in the world.

@judyev - humdity and hot weather is surely experienced here but only for a certain momths. We are fortunate enough to experience all the seasons of nature. :) growing population is a major concern. Surely, people got to do something about it.

It is an interesting discussion. It will be interesting to see how many users who are not from India respond to your post. I feel India's status has risen in the recent past viz a viz other countries in the world.
