i have been working with most primitive tribes, when every women trying to put on the dress that are cloned from them, the problem with these kind of statements are, yes, that were looked down, the thing is they are not comfortable with other places, since almost 95% born will love die there, now that education has definitely brought in changes, they are moving from their habitat and are looking various cultures that are them now, but why would anyone want to come to cities, for them everything is problem, right from their ablutions, the eating habits, like the list long, given this social parity, how can issue a gross uncouth statements like this
Even those who cannot speak English are referred to as 'vernacular' or 'vernacs'. The reason is stress on Westernization instead of modernization. The tribals are atleast preserving a part of the Indian culture. Very few educated Indians can claim to do that. All Indian languages are more meritorious and developed compared to English. So those who donot speak their own mother tongues shud ideally be looked down upon.
There is a tendency to consider people from rural areas and villages as semi-intelligent and foolish. This is wrong. These people may be slow but no fools. They meed respect.
