When it comes to boasting about  culture, heritage and hospitality Indians are at the top and time and again it has been proved , how shallow a claim that is ! ..

Yet another crime in Chennai when a young Infosys employee was stabbed to death by an unidentified man after which she lay on the Nugumbakkam railway platform and bled to death while the heartless Chennai population went to and fro without a care or watched her without helping in any way . Another similar incident happened in Hassan town in Karnataka when a man was murdered in broad day light and the people gathered there instead of helping started filming the incident !!! Can anything be more gruesome and heartless than that ? These two incidents make me realise  that Indians are a selfish and greedy lot only interested in their own self with little care for anything else.

This is a democratic forum and  members have the right to protest and also the right to ignore the protests !!!

@ Shampa, that is very true ! I have seen educated and so called people laugh sarcastically and move on when older people slip and fall in the parks or on street rather than help them. It is only those who  are simple and down to earth that really come out and help ..

Lending a helping hand to those in distress is not everybody's cup of tea. Many years ago, I had seen in big cities like Chennai, Hyderabad and Kolkata, where traffic is very high, Traffic police stopping the traffic to help old and decrepit to cross the road safely. Helping others is a noble quality that comes from the heart.

 

The police do what they are supposed to do and the traffic police stand there on the road regardless of summer heat or monsoon showers directing traffic and helping out pedestrians doing their duty . It is the citizens who have become self centered and heartless where other people are concerned. On the one hand we speak big about what a great country and great culture we have but sadly it remains in speeches and books only ! Without all these claims I have seen how people quietly help out others in western countries ..it is cultivated in them and they do it automatically.

Yes. Police does what they are supposed to do. But how many police personnel are doing what they are supposed to do ? I have seen in pondicherry, a cop helped me in giving me  directions to a particular destination, but he took me to the Bus stand and asked the Conductor to help me when my destination comes.

 

The nature and attitude of citizens needs to be changed to one of cooperation and helping fellow citizens. Isolated cases do not speak for the whole population.

Of course. Isolated cases will not give any clear idea about the general behaviour of the people.. If that change in general behavior changes, there is nothing like it.
