Why was the 2014 Indian parliament election anything but free and fair and ignored by western media?
Why did the western media totally ignore
the just concluded month and a half long Indian exercise of electing the
members of their 16th parliament?
Despite the Indian media tom toming it as
the biggest democratic exercise to decide the future of one billion Indians, it
was the conflict in Ukraine and the abduction of Nigerian girls which grabbed
the headlines in the world.
Despite being projected to become the
number one economy in the world in the near future, is there a reflection of
the real status of India among the world nations in this apathy? If there is,
no one but the Indians themselves are to be blamed.
Somehow the perception about the Indians
among the rest of the world, built over several decades, is not something
Indians abroad can write home about. Every Indian who ventures out on a holiday
outside India returns home with that feeling, a feeling of animosity and
dislike and bearing a secret grudge about the countries they went visiting.
The problem is, most Indians won't even admit to it.
