This is the biggest fraudulent narrative Congress perpetuated. No, @tehseenp India did not become an "IT power" because of #EnglishAdvantage. Rather, it lags other countries in GDP/capita because of #EnlgishLiability.

English-liability stops 90% of Indians from advancing.
Because successive govts kept up #EnglishApartheid in India.

This has to be dismantled to provide equal opportunity to all in their language rather than continuing a discriminatory system.

No major country has developed without mother-tongue education.

यह सोचते हैं कि १५० देशों का समविधान अंग्रेज़ी में लिखा है। 😆 इतनी अज्ञानता हमारे लोगों में कहाँ से आई?

Computers are natural to Indians. They invented zero and binary systems. Their languages, grammar, alphabet, poetry are all based on mathematical patterns.

This is why Indians excel in computers, *not* English. English-medium loses real advantage.

Read "The Imperishable Seed" for the Indian influence on the pioneers of computing.

George Boole and Charles Babbage were profoundly influenced by ancient Indian texts in Mary Boole's words were "intensely Hinduized."

For all those touting India's "English advantage" in IT, check out the number of tech unicorns from China. All engineers study in Chinese medium.

China is now filing more patents in AI than the US.

Chinese hackers are light-years ahead of Indian hackers. They've broken into major US systems and I'd guess that most connected Indian systems are compromised. It helps because they all learn in Chinese which makes knowledge acquisition faster for them.

India's #EnglishLiability due to the imposition of English-medium keeps a billion Indians behind without access to knowledge. Courts, higher-education, engineering, medicine, MBA all impose English. Therefore India operates at less than 10% capacity.

If India’s progress in IT and technology is due to English shouldn’t Nigeria be a tech super power vs South Korea,
Japan or China?

Nigeria has among the highest number of English speakers.
The ignorance is stunning. They've been taught English is like air, they can't breathe without it.

So MNCs and Global companies don't come to Japan, or South Korea or China because they don't use English. And India's GDP/capita is much higher, right? 😆

A quick summary of countries with and without "English advantage" in Asia.

Look at the table. Is English-medium an advantage or a liability?

Then where do we get this myth of English advantage from? Where's the data to back it up?

Absolutely. The claims of "English advantage" are completely unscientific, there is no data to back it up.

But they are parroted day-in and day-out like religious dogma by "true believers."

"Hindutva supporter" thinks English unites India.

Apparently, India there was no Bharat, no Mauryas, no Chakravartins, and people in India never talked to each other before the British gifted us English. 😆

No, “the world” doesn’t speak English nor is it impressed if you do. Only Indians think like that.

Japanese CEOs, Chinese, Korean, couldn’t care less for English.

“Atheism” is a derivative of Abrahamism. One god less. Nonsensical for Indic traditions.

That’s why he makes a good collaborator with Islamists.
It’s fragmentary. Was never really taken seriously.

And it has little to do with “belief in god” or not.

It’s about atman and rebirth.
Firstly,
Sinha self-labelled as “atheist.”

Secondly, it looks like you take the West as the norm and their ideologies as universal.

That’s why you’re surprised by others saying “we’re not like that.”

But Western ideas are not “ethno-centric” and contingent on their history?

Can anyone understand the Left's obsession with defending Islam? It stands against everything they claim to care about... gay rights, women's rights, modesty culture, yet they constantly defend it.

Can anyone actually explain this.
This:

Interesting. So the Left in India and the West panders to Islam because it is powerful. They kneel to power, while use the rhetoric of "poor minorities" to justify their collusion with power.

Bharat did not begin with a Constitution made up 70 odd years ago. Constitutions and States come and go. Many have, many will.

But the Himalaya stands. And the Ganga flows. And Dharma sustains. As it has for millennia.
I don’t speak for OpIndia. @UnSubtleDesi is quite capable of speaking for herself.

Yes Bharat is a civilizational entity. Like China is or Japan is? Is that hard to comprehend. You can read my 20-year old article “Why India is a Nation.”

Wasn't the idea with partition to have a separate "Muslim homeland"? Ambedkar had advocated a full population exchange.

It's been created, it's waiting. But instead Rohingya are infiltrating into kaffir land where they're "persecuted." How come?
The level of delusion in this one is quite a sight.

Waiting for “jannat” it seems. 😏
Fear? I’m throughly amused.

If I see the kind of people headed to Islamic “jannat” , jahanam sounds far more appealing 🤩

I’ll skip the company of all the suicide bombers and #IsIs rapists and definitely the ever-renewing “virgins” (or is it raisins 😆?)

It's so nice that some people are revealing themselves by trending #StandWithPFI.

I hope the agencies are making a list of PFI supporters.
Anyone who uses the term “Islamophobia” seriously is a moron.

It’s a marketing term propagated by #OIC by pouring millions into it. Plus millions into Western academic institutions.

Ever wonder why using #Hinduphobia or #KaffirPhobia is not in fashion?

Unfortunately learning to read has clearly not endowed you with an ability to think.
😏

Why would you respect a religion that claims you are a kaffir, the worst of creatures and bound for hell? How stupid would it be to respect that.

A Muslim intellectual parses the causes of Islamic terror.
It comes from Islamic teachings that:
1. Shirk and apostasy is punishable by death
2. That non-Muslims don't have right to rule over Muslims.
3. That one Islamic Caliphate should rule
4. Nation-states are illegitimate
But Western Leftists intellectuals whitewash the religious roots of Islamic terror with:

1. Islamic terror doesn't exist
2. When Muslims are violent it's because they're "oppressed"
3. The fault for this lies in ABI (Anything But Islam)—US imperialism, Israel, "Hindutva" etc...
These Left intellectuals, in India and abroad, as apologists, assign "secular" reasons for Muslim violence even when the perpetrators themselves are clear about their religious motives.

They craft the narrative to attack their predetermined enemies, including the nation-state.
