‘India is more than the sum of its contradictions. She is a myth and an idea, a dream and a vision, and yet very real and present and pervasive.’

No other country in the world embraces the extraordinary mixture of ethnic groups, the profusion of mutually incomprehensible languages, the varieties of topography and climate, the diversity of religions and cultural practices, and the range of levels of economic development quite like India does.

It truly is a wonder how India has not only managed to survive but thrive in this manner. The country is far from gaining the efficiency of a well-oiled machine, and yet, things always seem to be making some kind of headway. So how does it all work?

Read on as Shashi Tharoor, one of India’s most prolific writers, attempts to answer that question in ‘What is India?’
