50 years of socialism and control of education by commies, this is what you get.
mind numbing stupidity is the norm in India about issues of religious conflict, social issues and economics.
Ask your average "educated" Indian about why India is so poor, he/she will immediately reply "overpopulation" even though in truth it has nothing to do with the reasons for poverty, no one will ever say socialism/communism which are the true reasons.
For a supposedly more open economy India still has a lot of socialist nonsense like BSNL still going.
To the numbskulls consensual polygyny, voluntary suicide (including sati) are "evil" but gay "marriage" is progress.

Tells you something about the power of education, in the long-term. "Consensus-building" towards your agenda suddenly becomes much simpler. As a tool for propaganda, it is simply unparalleled. I am awestruck, by the kind of power such centralized education provides to ideologues.
