India is a great country, and we all dearly love it. But let us not forget the flaws that is making us really lack in the areas of Humanity.
We suffer from many mentality issues, prejudice, stereotypes and hypocrisy. Only when we raise above it all can we shape country better.
Here we have things that we as people must try and change to make Our India a much better place.
- Don’t Break Traffic Laws and Regulations : Let us be honest, Who follows traffic rules here. The ratio of people following rules are very less. For a change if we change this habit even by 5% there will be great outcome.
Source - Stop Littering Around : While I list this down, I wonder if this can be even changed. We Indians keep our home very clean and tidy but everything other than that is a giant dustbin. Not every Indian is like that, we do see some responsible people around.
We should try making change here from right now with at least 1 person in a family, in friends group and work group changes the habit of one other person.
Source - Learn To Behave - Not Moral But Manners Education : Yes we give importance to Morals, Sanskar[values] and all that stuff.
But what about basic common sense and manners? We might leave our home by touching feet of our elders, but in train or bus we would hesitate to offer sit to a senior citizen, while travelling we would push others. This small things matters for change the most.
Source - Stop Getting Offended : Switch to news sources and you will know that every other day there is someone getting offended by something. Who gave us right to be offended by anyone anyways? Let each other live in peace without getting offended offcourse.
Source - Help Each Other : No other thing can make one happy, than seeing someone smile cause of you. Then why not take advantage of it, and feel a little happiness already? We float in our ego and superiority so much that we forget to be there for loved ones or even for some needy stranger for that mtter of fact. Shall we not help those in need, it may not earn you money, but hey you get affection and blessings and that satisfactory smile.
Source - Learn To Conserve Resources : Money could be ours, but resource are not. Water, Food, Electricity, Trees, Nature, Minerals, Fuel, Air, Land and other resources are not something to be wasted and be proud of it. Keep in mind that there are many generations to follow, and one needs food to eat, not money.

Source - Do Not Spit On Roads Or Well Anywhere : Have not we seen those brand new buses or trains being decoder in red color of stain? Spitting seems to be national habit, whether it be with paan or without paan. Common public places are not for us to go and spit, they are for our convenience. Imagine someone spitting in your home. No one would appreciate that right? Even Our public places should be treated equivalent to our home.

Source - Stop Objectifying Women Woman is Woman not an object, passing cheap comments and addressing her as tota, maal, item doesnt make one macho or any stronger. She is human too and should be respected for the person she is, and not degraded for the object that one sees in her.
Source - Respect The Third Gender : They are legally welcomed as gender in our system, but is the same adopted by society and people? Still they roam jobless and homeless because we as society still hesitate to give them enough recognition. We must Respect the Third Gender
Source - Stop Moralizing Or Worshiping Movies/Stars : Movie actors perform on script and that is all about it. They do not always follow what they portray but we fail to realize that. Youth whether educated or not educated tries and moralize stars [Read] Such behavior is not acceptable and tolerable in real life.
For an instance Raj of DDLJ is stalker, irritating guy with cheap tactics and he manages to stay love icon for a decade *FACEPALM*
Source - Change The Way We look at Feminism/Racism/Cast/Creed/Religion : Feminism means equality between Male and Female, but Many Feminists demand Female to be greater than Males. Now that is not what Feminism is. Same goes with Religion, Casts, Race etc. No one should be overpowering other that does not make world better place, but Equality does.
Source - Learn To Be More Like Human : And to end it with just learn to be more human, rather than materialistic animal. :)
