I am not surprised by these questions
India is such diverse society with so many religions and cultures and langueages it is difficuilt for an Indian to understand her properly , so no wonder for a westerner.
Arabs had trade relations wiith India for more than 3000 years , rice and other food use to come maily from India . Now you ask a young Arab he will say i dont know anything about India
During my travel i have met many people asking similar questions about India
One reason is that in media they still portrait the image of snake chamers and elephants and cows
During one international conference i was asked to give a small private session on yoga and massage by few collegues from europe
They thought all the indians are experts in yoga and natural remedies
But i am surprised by the fact that people never care to understand another culture or try to respect it
Even in QL i can see a lot of people trying to racially abuse the others
