The states in India have varying characteristics like language,clothing etc.Also there is still the "caste system".As someone hailing from South I had a bad experience when I moved to another state.Dont know if it can be termed as racism ,but it didnt feel good.
Not everyone in my state is open minded about people from other states .I guess discriminating people based on caste,colour,language etc might also be called racism and India has that in excess.

That's an example to prove that Power > Money.
Way less compared to our own facing attacks from ourselves.

Oh come on.. man.. the guy can't eat a chewing gum? This is why India don't progress.. we tend to linger around petty issues rather than trying to do some breakthroughs.

the chinese too hadn't taken it well. nevermind. gossiping is a human trait and has been our oldest pastime. the western man may do it for issues we find normal or/and necessary in this part, the eastern man may do it for those that are not considered objectionable and distasteful, owing to cultural differences. while apart from the internet giving people ideas royally lame to gain petty fame, it also gives them a platform to blow up a footling (as simple as chewing an anti-nicotine gum during an official function) and engage in tattling like never before!

my reply was not directed towards the much-debated attacks on US, but in general, about the reasons for the resurgence of wahaabism in the post world-war era, and esp. from atleast 6 months prior the landing of the soviet forces in afghanistan. though the subject invariably gets diverted many-a-times to the attacks on US, i know.

[strike]When Congress trying to implement nuclear power plant in Kudangulam, Tamil Nadu everyone protested inclusing BJP. Now Obama signed Nuclear deal with Indian Government which includes opening Nuclear power plant to handle electricity needs. I dont get this logic [/strike]

but the protest-leader, S.P. Udayakumar, had stated that both the congress & the BJP were against the protest/in favour of the plant...

info (or should i say, mis/dis-info) on platforms like fb, whatsapp, etc., however trivial, should always be verified, as a rule. perhaps we don't have better sources of info yet, but am sure that within a few days, when the fever of the friendship subsides from the heads of the news-channel honchos, they will be back to their usual noisy newsroom debates and bickering, and then this topic of the nuclear deal would open up and we may get to know more on that.
