India must find the ideal of ancient India, daamrhre2jya, country where reign the principles of right and of justice.For it, it is necessary to establish a true social justice, so that the farmers and all small jobs are just remunerated and so that these people aren't any more encouraged to the suicide by despair not to can any more feed their family.A nation can be compared with a building: if the base (the small jobs) isn't solid, it is all building which will collapse.A social justice will bring a stability and an internal peace in the country, depriving terrorist movements and religious invaders of their best arguments.Richard.

Hello to all of you with comments about India. I would like to ask a very personal question that would be beneficial to me. I am a Professional Nurse Educator and planning a trip to India. I am an African American...one of those who is considered a world traveler. I will be volunteering to guest lecture some nursing students at a very large and well to do medical school in southern India. Do any of you have any idea as how I may be seen in the eyes of the Indians. I have worked with many Indian nurses, but they were probably born in USA and not there...so their values and views may be quite different. If you have some comments please share...I am obviously not a person who looks at color when I travel or otherwise. In this profession as a nurse...I have not had a choice as to who I take care of and only my race. thanks for any feedback

Vacation in India for a few months before living in India. I have many expat friends who either liked living in India or found out that it was a nightmare. Some of them were NRI's who moved back to India after many decades due to nostalgia and found out that reality trumps fantasy. Good about India - People are friendly, inquisitive and mostly simple. Cost of living is cheaper in outskirts of Cities. If you are young & a travel buff, than living in India is a great adventure. Major cities are westernized & English is the language of choice. Bad - Basic necessities like electricity & water are unreliable. Hygiene and poverty are on full display. Expect corruption when dealing with the law & administrative services. Lately, India has become dangerous for single women. Purchasing property can be risky, especially if it is not properly zoned even though the paperwork shows no irregularities.

I brought my cat back to the US with no problems at all. Going there was a lot of paperwork which was NEVER CHECKED when I got there. Welcome to Indian bureaucracy at its finest. :)

A really good article, I must say. Coming to the point of finding home, I think if you really look at the right places, I mean good websites there are less chances of being surprised then. Especially in big cities it is good to use some trusted website which has good number of ads for home. There you can see if the house is full furnished or not. There are many home search website including https://homes.askalo.in/ On this website you can find home for rent or sale. I hope you have a good time in India :)
