Shravanpji - Absolutely. All that is true...but we have to understand that there has been a sustained assault in the concept of family : https://www.theepochtimes.com/chapter-s ... 61675.html

I agree that Globalization was a factor in disrupting the family structure in India. The larger point I am trying to make is that we as Indians failed to realize the strength of our family and social structures. To give you another example there was this gora researcher whose name eludes me who studied family based businesses in Gujarat, Rajastan, Tiruppur (TN) and came up with the term "Social capital". He was basically appreciating the self help nature of some caste groups. We on he other hand never even acknowledged these kinds of social structures.
Re: 2021 Strategic and Political Analysis-1
Globalization has perhaps affected only a tiny miniscule of a very small percentage of the population in India and it is not appropriate to use it like it is being used now in the form of a straw man argument.Kanoji wrote:shravanp ji,shravanp wrote: I have a different take on it.

the society at large and the middle class working population in India in particular has only been (so far) affected in terms of some online shopping for goods and things of that nature influenced largely by visual, electronic and social media because their consumption of visual and social media content is globalized. Their mindset however, remains firmly rooted in the tier two towns where most of them come from
some of the richer ones, the middle management types among the middle classes who work for foreign companies in India have certainly turned wokish but they still have not gone the full monty as far as neglecting the previous generation is concerned.
a lot of retired parents live with such wokish and often married offspring and they are essentially used to provide child care and house keeping services (household and hired help management) since the "husband and wife" are too busy "working" and providing offshore coolie services for their foreign companies. These guys often keep US hours at work and so have no time to look after their kids. Their solution to almost all problems at home with their kids is limited to throwing expensive gifts at them and hoping that their kid's grandparents will resolve such issues.
majorly, there are no globalization issues in play here but a misplaced sense of entitlement and a certain degree of callous detachment, lifted straight out of some poisonous bollywood produced saas bahu serial.

Cyrano ji,
These scum are the woke examples of the globalized Indian, thus betraying the perennial thirst of a great many rootless Indians for the white skin's approval.
This criminally woke bunch that so eagerly took the knee for blacks who don't even exist in India and the few blacks that one met were not only racist but also anti Indian behind their forced smiles.

Sorry. Missed them completely.
Much obliged for catching the mistake. These people are very different from the entitled, chip on the shoulder, passport holding variety from overseas.
They speak the local language of the state where they stay. They are mostly Siddis or Habshis and are of Ethiopian, Bantu, and Abyssinian descent.
They are also in gujarat and they speak fluent gujarati, and parts of daman and goa. I first saw them there.
The most famous Siddi, Malik Ambar, effectively controlled the Ahmadnagar Sultanate in the Deccan. He played a major role, politically and militarily, in Indian history by limiting the penetration of the Mughal power into the Deccan Plateau. He was an Ethiopian who was enslaved in his youth.
one legend I heard has it that the Abyssinians came as bodyguards to a local king on the daman coast. Some africans came with the armies of babur, others came as traders, mercenaries, and still others were brought in as slaves
One way or another, they have been in India for over a thousand years.
They are all Indians now and many of them still follow some of their old customs.African dispersal in India covers several states/provinces namely, Bengal, Gujarat, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Daman and Diu, Goa and Andhra Pradesh.
In Gujarat, they are found in the districts of Surat, Ahmedabad, Amerili, Jamnagar, Junagadh, Rajkot, and Bhavnagar, Broach/Bharuch near Ratanpur and the former kingdom of Kutch/Katchch. They are normally settled in areas of their own but in Ahmedabad, Broach and Kutch they live in mixed areas as they do in parts of Andhra Pradesh.
In Maharashtra they are settled in Raigad district. In Uttar Pradesh they are situated in Jaunpur. The North Kanara District of Karnataka comprises 11 talukas and out of eleven the seven talukas have consisted of large number of Siddi settlements. Dharwad and Belgaum also possess some Siddis population.

RSatchi-avare, while you are technically correct here, I feel it is a false equivalence to bring up the Siddis in a conversation about western racism against blacks or "taking the knee". There is no history or instance of racism, institutional or otherwise, against the Siddis. They are just a tiny population that is mostly left alone to live their life as they see fit. If anything, the Indian state can be accused of not spreading awareness of their existence, but that would apply to dozens of such tiny communities that make up this country, the Chinese origin folks of Kolkata are another such example.Rsatchi wrote:Chetakji

Our cricket team taking the knee was for no purpose except useless virtue signalling that was started by that idiotic self-styled "West Indian", Pandya. We should (and mostly have since) leave it well alone. Not our problem.

This means very little in practical terms.
He may still have the options of approaching the EU courts, human rights commission etc
The UK cabinet can overrule their SC if need be. If cabinet green flags extradition the EHRC can grant permanent asylum against which no appeal is allowed.
So bringing Nirav back to India is a long long long way off.
