Why Western media portrays India and Hinduism in negative light?
Western media portrays India like it's a huge slum,we all starve etc etc.. But do they know that India has middle class of 300 million consumers (as per 2001 census-so it's possible that number is increased)Why those documentry makers only go to slums and very interior parts? Why western media can't show beauty of India? Thanks to recent gang rape incident,now everyone thinks that every Indian man is rapist.
The portrayal of Hinduism is depressing as well. They show that we worship rats,eat monkey brains, worship cows and whatnot. They make it seem that Hinduism is not a religion but a superstitious localisation of archaic cults. Can't they show good aspects of Hinduism?
as for women, they make it seem like Indian women are very oppressed,victims etc etc.
FYI,
Among all teachers in India, more than 50% teachers are women
If you take a look at different exam toppers(CBSC,SSC etc) most of the times it's a girl
If you go to any college-engineering,medical etc more than 50% students are girls. Even in different offices women work on very high positions, there are many women in our parliament.But sadly westerners think that such women are a anomaly. Though they are in so huge numbers.
I smell some sort of propaganda.
@Khatereh-I must say you have made very good points. However,I don't think Indian media divorce rates and western women in any way. At least media like-newspapers,news channels,tv documentaries etc. The people who bash 'western culture' are usually Hindu Extremists like RSS and BJP. I agree that some bollywood movies portray western women as a total slut-but honestly,bollywood directors have lowest iq imo. What I seee is, media like newspapers,news channels, television documentaries-which people trust-ars blackening India and Hinduism. I think that America overrates 'middke easterners are terrorists' I find it very ironic that once upon a time, America helped them and now is whining how dangerous they are!
@Mariana-don't rapes,assaults happen in your country? The number of rape,assault cases is proportional to population,hence appears huge to you.
