Hi Venu

I like India too . i like it a lot. It's mine , so i love it .
But it's the not the same as being proud of it. It is not necessary to be
proud of it , but it helps if we could
Our personalities of the past are extraordinary individuals and as you would
realise they are not what constitutes the country. I don't think it is fair
to ride a whole country on the backs of prodigies.

Thanks,
anil
