India To Wonder

February 15, 2015




If it’s your travel to India for the first time to India then…. You are sure to see a whole new world inside India. People even panic seeing all these things but for Indians it’s all about their daily lifestyle and compulsion to maintain their livelihood.


 

1.     A person can talk atleast in 4 different Language
Most of the Indians know their mother tongue depending on which state they are born, language of neighboring state for e.g. a guy from Karnataka will know Telegu and Tamil language, the proclaimed national language Hindi, English—the legacy of the British, the European colony like Puducherry has French as its official language and Diu as Portuguese. So, the perplexing thing is that people here are equally fluent with all of them gosh.. even I have learnt Tamil by now.
  
2.     Cows rule the streets – Gau matha
Hindus believe cows are symbol of Goddess Lakshmi which means prosperity and wealth. Scientists believe the cow urine has medicinal values and the cow dung prevents disease to enter home and that was practiced long before the west world had proven it. But in India, they are very liberal; all the streets would be filled with cows making their territory and proudly giving damn about the speedy vehicles….relax enjoy and be a holy cow!!!

3.     People pee in the public toilet that does not have roof at all
When I entered first time to India via Uttar Pradesh largest historic city Gorakhpur, I was felt weird when the toilet had no roof and only covered the back and the head, chest and feet would be visible…. There are lot of public toilets but still Modiji’s Swaccha Bharat seems to be not practical unless the toilet is made hygienic and so much open…it’s a private affair….

4.     Traffic light are useless
You might have seen many trolls in facebook already that “Red” in India means check for the police and see whether the vehicle are coming from the other side then Go. Its really uncommon, violating traffic rules had been the best thing I can see here thus mishaps do happen often due to this recklessness.

5.     See the Gods walking in the street
May be they are from some drama(reckon Aamir Khan starer P.K.’s Lord Shiva locked inside toilet) and one who dresses like that for living. Hinduism has 33 crores Gods (Tettis Koti Devta)
whom do you wish to be? But you see only few here….

6.     Noise Pollution can be felt here
Nowhere in the world would you feel being so touched with noise…indeed it not only touches you but also molests and can get your nerves. Continuous sound of vehicle beep, the loud chatter of the publics, big mics playing qawali and non-stop bhajan at the temple…People do live with al these sounds and if its shut even I feel so awkward. But still the posh areas there which can be silent as Antarctica only hear creak of gates and BMW hush… that’s really creepy!!!

7.     18th century train travel
Always a first timer will have the hardest time to travel in the local transport system cause of the designs and style of trains and buses run by state. I as a first timer when entered the train compartment and saw the wires and pipes up the toilet I really thought yes India still has dungeons. But the dodging thing is that its highly managed. Indian railways boasts of having access to nook and corner of India and the classic toy train still operates in hill station like Oooty in the south and Darjeeling in North East India.

8.     Spices … so many so many , even the western food
I never had such spice until I came to India. You name it, you get it. Food without spice is no food in India. More south you hit the spice level rises… Rice mix made up of just pure spices.
For the first timer its not only experience to blow your tongue and brains but the next day you have a rocket to blow in the toilet.

9.     People are nosy and don’t mind interrupting to others conversation
Agree or not bhaisaab some one will come to knock into your conversation if you travelling in a public place. They don’t mind cracking lines into your conversation even if you’re a whole stranger and look like Indian…They really know how to give opinions and that’s always the best free thing you get in India words…be aware some times that opinion swindle you too….


10.     The rampant development despite the lack of space and huge population and technological boom
I read in Quora that “People are working with yesterday’s hardware with tomorrow’s software in India” and what I believe is absolute truth…survey suggests India has more mobile than toilets thanks to gigantic telecommunication houses…..On the other hand India is still developing and massive infrastructures are rising in a surge.
The astounding facts lefts anyone who comes to India and need to believe it you really need to travel India.
