We Indians are hypocrites



We Indians are hypocrites

Hypocrisy is defined as pretending to have values, virtues and traits that one does not have. It is a form of living a pretentious life. Indians have often been criticized for their hypocritical traits. It is not that there traits are absent in citizens of other nations, but Indians have been under focus because of our vast exaggerations, pretentions and above all our numerical strength doesn’t allow things to get brushed aside.

Hypocrisy in education:
Legal hypocrisy in India:
Hypocrisy in social setup
Hypocrisy in International Relation:

           For a nation that refuses to include sex education in its curriculum, we have a huge population and HIV positive cases. Similar cases of hypocrisy are prevalent all around the world. Indian exceptionalism makes it a case of increased interest and observation. 

Studies have indicated that lying is an skill. Scientists concluded that children who were able to lie effectively have increased cognitive development and had higher chances of faring better. Perhaps all this deception and pretention is just an indication of how well developed we are as a Nation.  


P.S : Some points might be too much of a stretch in imagination. Request you to take them with a pinch of salt and humour. No intention has been exhibited to either defame India or hurt Indian sentiments. (Is it possible to hurt us? Aren't we more debate loving and dialectical?).
