Hi Seema,

Kudos.

Read your article this morning and I really like your way of writting. Although most of us Indians harbours such feeling (western approvals), but we never seem to accept it. Your article pointed out few areas where we (knowngly or unknowingly) displayed our urge to equate everything to western incidents. I hope people do read it and think about stuff like individuality and self pride.

Wish you all the best and do keep writing.

Cheers,
Pankaj Jaju
