Well, India shining !!! Rings a bell, right. The normal response: "Lol, yeah !!! I remember that. This is the propaganda slogan used by BJP in 2004. People started feeling it. I felt it. Yeah, India was shining that time. But, now, huh ?!? Its done, bro !!!"
At this point, another question entered my curious mind: "Was India really shining at that time or is it that the popular media controls our mind so well ?" Remember the Bharat Uday ad: A milkman using an Enfield motorcycle, mobile communication, doctors, shopping malls, market rise. Does that have anything to do with India Shining ??? They were all consequences of external influences, with a more or less CAPITALIST intention at the background. These things weren't even a part of civic amenities structure by the Constitution. Man, seriously are these guys just trying to find ways to manipulate our sentiments !!!
You may be thinking, why I brought this question up after such a long time of that campaign. Well, today I was walking through a street and there I saw a group of young motorcycle mechanics having a good time with AngryBirds and FB status updates. This really weird setup put me into a dilemma of whether the continuous Capitalist influence on the Indian society has actually changed the Indian or is it just
