about the freedom of India today?

Question

Even after 60 years of our Indian independence,is common people of INDIA really got freedom??

Answer 1

Only when economic independence in terms of livelihood guarantee for each family to meet its basic needs of food, shelter , hygienic surroundings, health care and minimum literacy to the progeny are ensured Indian common man cann't be said to be truly independent.

Answer 2

Sadly, they cannot - since even the "free" countries aren't free. There might be less visible corruption some day, or less physical violence, or less desperate non-freedom, but without individualism, freedom has no hope - and in the U.S., at least, there is precious little individualism.

I have enjoyed interacting with and becoming closer to dozens of citizens of India, and find many common items of interest - much of which has to do with how individuals are treated in different societies.

Personally, I encourage you all, as individual citizens of a country, to push for ethical, individualistic, freedom-based reform - without hate or angst in the struggle. You will soon be a bigger world player than China, and while there is a long way to go, you have just as good a chance as any other country, including the USA - and we need role models desperately about how to do it.

Feel free to comment on my blog below, and encourage your friends to do the same - I am interested about opinions of the citizens of India who have not chosen to visit here, and would happily welcome the dialogue.

Answer 3

Indians should be totally independent by not adhering to UK as their colonizer even these days.
