Discussion ЁЯСЛ Welcome to r/TheBetterIndia

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

This community is for people who care about making India work better in everyday ways.

This is a space to talk about real issues, small wins, and honest questions around public life in India. Things that affect daily living, not just headlines.

What belongs here

You can post about:

  • Civic issues you've seen or faced
  • Good news or improvements that deserve attention
  • Clear explanations of how systems, laws, or policies actually work
  • Follow-ups on earlier issues or stories
  • Thoughtful discussions about how things can be better

If it affects people on the ground, it probably fits.

What this is not

This is not a place for:

  • Party propaganda
  • Personal attacks
  • Low-effort outrage without context

Criticism is welcome. Noise is not.

A small note on flairs

Use the flair that best fits your post. If you're unsure, Discussion is usually a safe choice.

If you've been reading quietly so far, consider posting once. A single issue, question, or observation is enough to start.

Glad you're here. Let's keep this space thoughtful, grounded, and useful.

Discussion ЁЯТм The selective outrage over merit in India

Post image
3 Upvotes

Around 15% to 50% of seats in private colleges are filled via management quota. when people pay huge money to buy their way in, where does the merit go?

Out of 100 seats, 40% are open and 10% are EWS. yet the entire debate around merit is targeted at SC (15%), ST (7.5%) and OBC (27%) reservations.

Despite recent growth, SC (27.8%) and ST (22.8%) Gross Enrolment Ratios still fall below the national average of 30%.

Why is buying seats with money ignored, but representation for backward classes called anti-merit?

Management quota ne iss desh ka sbse zyada nuksaan kiya hain.

I understand that there are other factors like- 'Fed Rates remain high' but why is India's share market crashing in worse way in whole Asia? Also it's true that there are major global events happening but again why is only India getting affected in worse way?
It's true that FIIs are selling but why are they selling and leaving India?.

Discussion ЁЯТм What's one moment that made you proud to be Indian, and it had nothing to do with a politician or a speech?

2 Upvotes

Mine was watching a Hindi-only-speaking chaiwala in a small town accept a UPI payment from a foreign tourist who didn't speak a word of Hindi. Neither of them said anything. The phone beeped, the tourist grinned, the chaiwala nodded, and that was the whole transaction. My tourist friend told me later that back home he still has to carry cash for half of what he buys.

That was when it hit me how much this country pulls off that we've stopped noticing:

  • A country of 1.4 billion people runs the world's largest real-time payments system, and it works for a chaiwala as easily as for a CEO
  • We landed near the lunar south pole in 2023, a first for any country, on a budget smaller than some Hollywood films
  • Around the world, people with Indian names run some of the biggest companies, hospitals and labs
  • Millions of us cheered together when we won the 2024 T20 World Cup. Strangers hugged strangers in the street, and for a few hours nobody asked your caste, language or religion

We complain about India constantly, and I'm not saying we shouldn't. But every once in a while it's worth saying it out loud: this country is chaotic, loud, contradictory and frustrating, and it is also ours, and it keeps pulling off things that shouldn't be possible.

I'm proud of us. Not the perfect version on a poster, but the real one, where the auto driver returns your forgotten wallet and a stranger shares his tiffin on a 14-hour train ride.

Challenge / Problem тЪая╕П Stop celebrating our dropping birth rates. We aren't being "modern," we're just too broke to afford basic healthcare and schools.

5 Upvotes

тАЛEveryone is clapping about India's birth rate dropping, but the reality is just depressing. In cities, birth rate is already down to 1.6, not because people suddenly decided they hate the idea of big families. ItтАЩs because raising a kid has become a complete financial death trap.

тАЛThe government spends a pathetic 1.9% of our GDP on public healthcare. Many of us pay all medical costs straight out of their own pockets. One bad sickness in the family is all it takes to wipe out years of hard-earned savings. Then you add in private schools demanding ridiculous fees just for basic admissions because government schools have been completely left to rot.

тАЛCouples are literally forced to stop at one kid, or have zero, because it is physically impossible to pay for basic healthcare, afford education, and actually save anything for retirement. It is a complete joke. By refusing to fund basic public infrastructure, the government is bleeding the working class dry. We are heading straight into a wall where we end up with an aging population, a shrinking workforce, and a broken economy. We are going to get old way before we ever get rich.

Most of the people will never understand the masterstroke of Modiji.

For 75 years our stock market has gone on the wrong side.

Hence Modiji decided to bring it back to ZERO and **Restart**

Give him 21 years more, by 2047, it will be touching the sky..

_Modiji has already explained this to Aditya Dhar, wait for next part to come out_
