True,by Nationalism we mean respect the Tricolor, father of nation, our soldiers, National anthem , shout in support of the country during any international matches (more with Pakistan) etc etc....We are ready to lift on our shoulders any one irrespective of his cast, creed or religion or language on winning a medal in an international event like Olympics. This is our type of nationalism. Our eyes overflow while any old Lata Mangeshkar songs like "Aye mere watan ke logo ...." or from film Border " Sandese Aate Hain, ...".We all know that patriotism and nationalism has far fetching borders than all these. We don't pay tax , we cheat the Govt and people and amass black money, we overlook laws to get our work done, bribery is common , we don't keep our surroundings clean, our Govt servants don't work equal to the pay they draw. We kill our own people for money, property etc. We rape our women folks. Yes we Indians do lot of unlawful things . But people in which country pay 100% income tax.

We Indians show our nationalism only for creating wedge between communities towards religious polarization and not for nation building. Politicians are interested only to score brownie points over his opponents that is the reason why the tribals still remains deep inside the forest while the dalits remain as untouchable in this country. If this country has progress as a strong nation we have to firstly get rid of superstitions that are prevalent among various communities especially the hindus, secondly uplift the status of dalits and tribals and bring them to the mainstream, thirdly all politicians have to think that they are elected by people not for only governance but also for doing business for the well being of the citizens of this country. Unfortunately nothing of that sorts happen in this country. The politicians with the help of other government machineries only loot the country to fill up their own coffers and leave the public to fight and kill each other....Jai Hind.... We can only cry loud to our Bharat Maa..
The sentiment can traslate into behavoiur...it's my strong faith...so, do not worry Aakar with this nationalisim sentiments....and what you wrote about the indian sentiments about tax theft etc....Every country people has their own way to deal with their present law....The so called literate people like you take credit by criticising about our sentiments on different matters. We are usual to this...So, nothing to be change with your remarks
It is true that nationalism is an easy way to speak but not so easy in practice as we enjoy in finding loopholes in laws and easily support lawlessness which is suitable with our interest
