Are Indians mad?!?!?

I don't hear something like this.I believe that Indian are peaceful nation...I don't believe that,maybe this article is writing from somebody that hates Indians.I'm not Indian,but I admire this nation for their culture!Hey?!They are human like we all,I admire them like a nation! Have a nice day!

Just because some people do such act , you cannot blame all the Indian's. This is because of some uncultured and uneducated people. But our govt has passed certail regulatios which will decrease this.

My dear friend eicher ,what are u trying to do,i am an indian and deeply hurt by your posting where u have used the words ,are indians mad, istrongly condemn this and say that this statement could be given by only a narrow minded person. What u have heard might be a case with only few individuals and that too several years back.my dear friend if u know little about indians u willknow that many of our gods are females ,we respect them,and tere is absolutely no descrimnation in our society.I think we indians deserve an apology from u. If u still dont do that ,we feel that ,may god help u to be a little more sensible and disallow ideas like this to come into ur brain, better u know abt a country or society beore u make a comment.

This is weird I read all these discussions about how INDIA is a peaceful, Highly Educated Nation and all that cr@p and then you get stuff like this??? PEACEFUL my rrrrsss! How CRUEL can one be on such an innocent life wether it'd be a BOY or a GIRL.. This world needs BOTH to work.. That sorta sh!t makes me bl@rdy furious!!!

Well i dont know if u are an indian or not but yes whatever u said and whatever reasons u have given are true to quite an extent.... This practice prevailed earlier on a large scale but after the efforts or the government the gender of the baby cannot be tested and is illegal. So it has reduced to quite an extent and the dowry factor prevails but it is nowadays limited to rural areas and also to people who are not very literate But yes thanx for spreading that awareness and bringing up that topic so that i could tell you.yes it was a dreadful past but i guess modern india is gettting over it

this is a very brutal act.killing foestus just because expecting it to be a girl is a very offensive task. i think people practicing this task should be punished. the law and order should be very strict in regards to this matter.

no, i didn't hear anything about that at all... do you mind sending me the articles that you read as well as the source please??? thanks in advance...

Yes its true that girls are often discriminated against in India but problem is mainly due to lack of education and wide spread poverty. Its become a vicious circle now. To marry girls huge dowries are demanded and given which puts pressure on the girl child's parents. Even in citries this practice is prevalant hence the thought is that while a male child will bring the money home girl child will take it to someone's home. Additionally there is the question of carrying on the family business and land cultivation. hence male child is preffered by many. Things will change in future I am hope ful because Indian gogvernment is taking frm steps to educate people and is making laws to control female infanticide. Recent addition to this is domestic voilence law that covers abuse against wman in all relationships, wives, daughter, sisters and even live in relationships. I think by right appraoch with education as well as stricter laws India will resolve this problem in coming years. please read about this here http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,25689-2422644,00.html

Pack of bloody murderers, that what they are. Just for the pleasure of trying for a boy. What a shame. Just wait till they realize that they are wiping their own female generation. And then they'll be saying, "Where have all the women gone?" When will they ever learn. What a shame to be female in a such a country, only to be murdered before you even make an entrance into this big bad world. What a shame, and how shameful. How does one live with such a gutless crime?

i am really offende form ur say are indian mads.....if i ask is eicher mad man how would u feel...i think u are from a civilzed culture...and like putting some nation down in such a manner feels so bad...really...i am An Indain.Love my country very much....i appritiate ur concern for our nation such abortion cases have been grately reduced...still i feel that much work needs to be done.... man india ia poor country and here u have somyhing called dourysystem...where girls have to pay dowry...when they are getting marride(which is really bad) ...they kill their child...... i just fell that these people need some education so that they can have sufficient food to feed their childrens...and educating will help them understand the what is really bad.... govermrnt is really working in this regard...and we are going to be one of the most powerful nations.... We have a growth rate of around 9% can u belive it it is the largest in the world.... We have 70% of the population as youth...who are the main source of consumption and prodction... India is comming as a big asian player... we also posses nuclear wepanory... still we bilive in love and peace.... So it is very unfair to say somthing Are Indiands M..... Please...dont hurt the Indian Sentiments this way.... Your concern for India is appritable though

Hello mr. you know every country has it pros and cons this does not mean you raise a topic criticising that nation for a particular problem. If i start a topic by saying, are France people gone damn Mad..then how you feel. That's not a decent manner to put a topic. I am very sad to see such topic..I will report ABUSE!!!

i am from india and i must say this report is true.but not all of the people do this.its just the people in the villages who prefer male children as they believe that a son will work for the family while a daughter is just a burden.all this is due to the illiteracy and backwardness in the rural areas of india.all this backwardness is due to the fact that india is still struggling to overcome the effects of the british rule

No the thing is not tht indians r mad................on the fault of one we cant say all r wrong..........as prisoners r all over the world n not in india only.....so its all abt who is th faulty person n not abt indians or with sum other ethinicity............think abt it once more......we cant say ny thin for a whole country.

Hi eicher...sad to say this is happening in India. Scanning to find whether the foetus is boy or girl and killing female foetus are illegal and there are legal provisions. But still many people are doing this illegally and female infanticide is a social evil. This is happening mostly among economically/socially/educationally back word people in India. Prevailing dowry system, atrocities against females and illiteracy are some of the major reasons behind this social problem.

I don't hear a news abt it....dont say like that to indians , inidians are also our friends...They arent bad peoples...they have a good heart they i have seen them not all bad...

ok u saw this report ,very good . do u know how many population we have ? if yes do u know how many girls and boys born here every day ? No , ok ask ur papa . bye

I am an indian and the dowry practice was very popular in the earlier times. But now this practice is made illegal by passing act in the parliament. But the people still practice this. Thats why a girl is not preferred. But now the thinking of people is changing. They oppose dowry.

I am an Indian, But i agree with you, still people in my country do all this for a boy child. It is worst in the villages.

Is it real ? I cant believe it.

This is a Public Health Problem in India.Lots of Advocacy and Legalisation is going on regarding this issue. We cannot blame women also directly as you must be knowing Women in India in some of the developing states are bound to follow the social issues. Social factors like Poverty, illiteracy , Attitude and Behaviour of People matter a lot.
