I am interested to know, with rapid urbanisation in India, what happens to India's villages and all the culture and tradition associated with it?
I mean this is what makes the sub-continent unique, the varying culture and colours alongwith the cuisine.

The victory of one society/country over the other is when you can force/propagate your culture on the other. The British are the ultimate victors. With such rapid urbanization in the rural areas, a lot of culture and traditions are getting lost. However, though not much culture or tradition is seen in daily lives, whenever there is an occasion, people go through all the rituals making sure everything is counted per the traditions and make it look like one ancient affair lol. I would say Indians are successfully modeling themselves to work in westernized environment while living with ancient traditions.

search about magarpatta city near pune...it was a village which is now an IT hub...Pimpari-chinchwad is also a city which was formerly a village..also i think Navi mumbai was built on villages....
the villagers get huge money for their lands and often choose to live in the newly developed cities but they do not give up their traditions and cultures
