With all respect, let me ask, what are we trying to do here. To change 
the so called "Indian Students mentality" or trying to spur the growth 
of Wikipedia in India?

This is getting too personal and creating a wedge between one of the 
most well known knowledge communities in the world. Please please 
please, let us put a stop to this.

This conversation/thread has to STOP at any cost. This is not doing any 
good than getting things personal. I hope better sense prevail.
