India
is the largest democracy
in the world, seventh
largest country and the
second most populous.
India is a picture of
diversity seen in her
peoples, cultures, colourful
festivals, dress and costumes,
religions, flaura and
fauna and varying landscapes.
India's history dates
back to the Indus Valley
civilization of about
2500-1700 BC.
She
is, as Mark Twain intones
the cradle of the human
race, the birthplace of
human speech, the mother
of history, grandmother
of legend, and great grandmother
of tradition. Our most
valuable and most instructive
materials in the history
of man are treasured up
in India only.She gave
the world the knowledge
of counting that transformed
the scientific faculty
of man. She was and arguably
is the spiritual seat
of the world.....
