US media vs Shashi Tharoor
Neither we were a mediocre country in the past nor we are today. Over and above prosperity, we are birth place of zero,atha, Astronomy, yoga, Vedas, Ayurveda, shilp sastra and hell of ancient knowledge and wisdom.Sir ji, there is nothing to be proud of in being centre of the world. In those times it meant that you were a fertile, overpopulated land, waiting to be exploited. It has nothing to do with human achievement. Even if it did, we are not inheritors of that legacy. That world is gone forever. We are mediocre country with mediocre people today.
