I am an Indian and we are very racist. We should stop complaining about Australians and others until we clean up our own acts first.
I have met highly educated young Indians who have strange views about class of people. One senior Indian guy in one of the QP companies here told me one day that he does not go to a certain spot because low class labors frequent that place. And more than 50% of these "low class labors are hard working, honest and simple Indians". I answered him that I also belong to the same class and he should stop being seen with me.
Of course all of us are not like that and I also met a lot of Indians who feels the same way as I do. But unless we are not able to stop these and so many incidents happening in India ( like villagers of "low caste" stopped from collecting water from public water sources, violence over inter caste marriages, harassments of North Indian in Maharastra, South Indians addressed as MADRASI and North Indians as BIHARI And so on and so on), we are all responsible.
Let us not be hypocrites and admit what is true. Ambedkar has done more harm than good by introducing benefits for (so called) lower classes, It has increased the divide.
