Reflections on India

Note: A hard-hitting piece by Sean Paul Kelley. It matters to read about how our country is viewed from the eyes of a traveling foreigner. For a while let us forget the “superpower” and bla bla stuffs, let us strive to fix some of the most basic things that our country lacks. If you are [...]
