I am not sure about this. India has never been good at conforming to a particular point of view. Aurangzeb tried it. Indira tried it. I read an article about traffic of a country implying how lawful it is. And just before reading this, I almost got knocked down by a big car jumping a red light while on a bike(In Bangalore too. We call ourselves civilized here). So whenever I get worried, we are falling into absolutism, I then recall how chaotic our streets and roads are. It's kind of a strength-is-weakness thing with India. You can't enforce a law here, but also can't impose a fascist state. I guess we are just destined to be the average guy of the world. Like the Big Lebowski, we only want our own patch of carpet, everyone else can go fuck themselves. Hail Tribalism :/
