I redirect you to this post where I replied to another member on the situation in Pakistan.

The problem with Indian Youth as you express is not confined to NRI's as I have seen the trend on my Fb friends as well. There is a dangerous desperation for better governance but in that desperation these age fellows are willing to forgo and put aside humanitarian, communal and ethical principles to achieve it. This does not mean this is a phenomenon confined to India(ala Modi) as Pakistan has had similar parallels with supporters of Imran Khan and as such encountered similar fanaticism in political thinking.
Well, a lot of the Indian reaction to pakistanis putting up stories about indian poverty can be put fown to a teenager's angst at someone they hate poiting out their acne. We know it exists, we know we should do something about it, but we question the motives of those who point out our faults.
Many of the Indian angst is borne out of a deep inferiority complex. Which explains our eagerness to lap at any western compliments and our almost reflexive defensive posture assumed at criticism directed toward our 'rape culture' or whatever.
one symptom of India heading n the right direction would be Indian comedians poking fun at India's sensitive cultural issues and not have Indians jump down his throat screaming offense.
In regard to Narendra modi and the Internet Indian's love affair with him, I think their perspectives will become more tempered by giving him power. Also, the current political landscape lends itself to the fact that local satraps have gained more influence and both the national parties in India must court these loose confederation of warring tribes who are just sniffing around the trough at the centre.
This site has changed my perceptions. I have found many Pakistani posters who are very likable.
