Verghese, If you go in deep then you will find out that this is mainly happened due to accepting someone's culture which is glamorous but not fit for this land.

Reading this I feel sad For Kolkata where practically a handful of amature musicians and enthusiasts are keeping its tradition of western classical music alive. Young people here hardly receive exposure to any classical music. Hardly any parents send their children to music schools at all, which was the tradition even a few decades back.

Indian classicals[Carnatic and Hindustani] have terrific depth and is for meditative minds. Western Classical has it is own beauty and rhythm. I cannot stop wondering the fertile imagination of Mozart and the 7th symphony of Beethoven. Music has no barrier, that includes Africa percussion music. They ae collectively the inheritance of all humans wh has respect for Music.
Many international people who play Hindustani instruments do wear Kurta and Dhoti as per the traiditon. SO in western Music, Wear Good suits and Tuxedo. No big deal or swadeshi Gaurav in this. We must get over the defeatist mind set and be strong enough to embrace other cultures when it matters while being routed in our own cultural values.

IF YOU REALLY VALUE YOUR CULTURE MOST, YOU WOULD HAVE NOT IMPORTED ANYTHING FROM OUTSIDE COUNTRIES, LIKE, MOBILES, TVS, COMPUTERS, CARS ETC. BUT IT IS NOT THE CASE. WE HAVE ALREADY LOST OUR CULTURE AND WE ARE GREEDY ABOUT MODERN TECHNIQUES AND LOOSING FAMILY LIFE. ALL FAMILIES ARE DIVIDED INTO SMALL PIECES ALREADY
