Watching Cricket highlights on Youtube during leisure time, this question just gripped me.......i was compelled to think "Why we feel proud when Team India wins", infact why we feel proud when our India achieves something...the question is not mind-churning ......yes right you are......accepted....!!
Just cogitating and taking a small deviation i generalise the questiuon to "What makes a nation great"..hey just a moment gimme a chance to eloborate :-
Scene 1 :- One day went to Delhi Mess for Lunch and as usual greeted with a warm "hi" from the waitor, same time, one labourer (say 'x') came quite tired ( probably after working 5-6 hrs under sun you may feel tired ). 'x' person got no greetings, no welcome, no smiling face from waitor i am sure he had not even noticed it......anyways he ordered for "Roti"..yes you heard it right he came there and iterated "Roti" and waitor asked "15 Rupaya hai".....he checked his upper pocket and enunciated "hai bhai bhookh lagi hai roti laga de"......I dont know what had happened to me at that moment... I was unable to grasp the moment for sure......the waitor if we think according to his business was right...and my mind have no objections but my heart didnt support this.
Scene 2 :- AS i have described above Highlights of some Indian Cricket match.
dont try to correlate above 2, they are not related, they are simple instances which i have observed. You all wont believe but i have been placed on the wrong footing on innumerable instances only to defend India and her Greatness......
It looks to me as if everybody is enamoured of criticing this nation.As i have read during my class 10th whenever you are criticising your nation you are harming its "Shakti Bodh" and "Saundarya Bodh" which means you are trying to change ( or atleast affecting the person or group of persons concerned ) their mindsets to an extent by your comments.
To prove the greatness of something/somebody you dont have to disprove somebody's / something's else greatness. So many things cant even have a comparision. Each nation is different with its own culture, its own resource capabilities, limitations and strengths. The difference lies how effectively you make use of them.Though this nation is marred by so many difficulties, but this is where we have spent our childhood days, this is the place from where you have taken so many things and it is your obligation to return something back. A nation is always governed by dreamers, thinkers,learners,scholars etc. You and i can make a difference, and will make a difference , for this is the change which is constant !!!!!!

Yes Yes Yes.....Its the human force and their belief in the nation that makes it great, its our faith in the nation that makes it great, its our customs, traditions which makes it great...!!!!!!!
