I really appreciate this perspective. Being proud of your country doesn’t mean turning a blind eye to its shortcomings, and being critical doesn’t mean constantly dismissing its achievements. India has its challenges, but the progress made at the grassroots level deserves recognition too. Sometimes, we become so busy comparing ourselves with developed nations that we forget how far we have come from where we started. A nation doesn’t become better by constantly putting itself down; it grows when its people acknowledge its strengths while working towards overcoming its weaknesses. 🇮🇳
