At one place he has written that this is one country where people are ruled by their hearts and he writes that Bombay police always knew about him but they let him live because they knew that he was a good hearted person living in the slums and doing good to the people dispensing medicines and first aid. He further wrote that if ever he went to any place in Europe he will caught and be deported to Australia...and surely once when he went on his illegal mission of sending people out of India on fake documents, he was caught and deported.
他曾经这样写道，印度是一个靠心灵来统治的国家，孟买警方一直知道他住在贫民窟里，但没有进行抓捕，因为他们知道他是一个善良的人，助人为乐，免费分发药品和施以第一援助。他进一步写道，要是去欧洲，他会被逮捕并送往澳大利亚........当他继续从事帮助他人携带假证件离开印度的非法行当时，他被逮捕并驱逐。
While I am living in China, I know police is aware of every step that I take. There are hundreds of cameras recording every movement of everyone. In India it is impossible to imagine this. Even if the cameras are installed for surveillance they are stolen before the dispute between police, electricity department and PWD is sorted out and they are put to work. But all this surveillance gives a sense of security to a good upright citizen. The women move around fearlessly on dark, lonely roads even at the dead of the night.Can they do it India? Will my brethren and friends will allow them to move about alone even if they can? Will society accept that kind of liberty of women without skepticism?
在中国，我知道警方清楚我的一举一动。数以百计的摄像头在记录着大家的行踪。这在印度是无法想象的。即便印度安装了监控摄像头，也会被盗走。监控给了每一位正直的公民一种安全感。女性在黑夜中可以无所畏惧地自由活动，甚至在深夜也是如此。这在印度可能吗？大家会允许家里的女性单独活动吗？社会能不带偏见地接受吗？
What excessive freedom has given to India? Naxlites, Terrorists, rapists and looters. Has freedom made any difference to you and me? An upright law abiding citizen doesn't need the fear of rod. Discipline ingrained in him.
Here people do not get in the streets and start vandalizing public property to register their anger or happiness they just mind their own business. Rather than taking out religious processions, support rallies or protest marches , they just work relentlessly. In twenty years that hard labour has gone in to building a nation that is an envy of the whole word.
印度面临哪些过分自由的问题？纳赛尔派、恐怖分子、强奸犯和抢劫犯等恶人横行肆虐。自由有给你我带来啥不同吗？遵纪守法的正直公民根本就无需畏惧惩罚。
在中国，人们不会上街破坏公共财产来表达愤怒或不快，他们都是在忙自己的事情。他们不会去举行宗教游行，声援集会或游行抗议，他们只是孜孜不倦地工作。在20年的光阴里，人们倾注心血，成功建设了一个令全世界嫉妒的繁荣国家。
There is an explosion of development every where. Maybe as per the reckoning of the people who know and have seen China
I have seen little and I know little but this little is enough for me to be convinced that if the government, if the people want to bring a change they can bring a sea change
到处是爆炸性的发展，也许以那些深入了解中国的人的眼光来衡量，我对中国了解甚少。然而，我对中国的这么一点了解足以说明，如果政府和人民立志带来改变，那么这个改变将是巨大的。
以下是读者和Navneet的交流：

Navneetji, good story and pictures ! Agree that China has grown by leaps and bounds ever since Deng iaopiang started his reforms. It is tragic that de ocratic India got left behind.
自从邓开启改革开放以来，中国出现了跳跃式进步。悲剧的是民*印度落后了。navneetkumarbakshi
The meaning of de ocracy has been misunderstood by us Prasad Ji
民*被我们误解了。
Soumya Srinivasan
Very interesting to read Navneet. Great pictures too.
Their cities look so clean and beautiful. We have a lot to learn from them.
But one cannot help feeling sorry for their public who do not enjoy the kind of freedom we do.
他们的城市看起来很干净很漂亮。我们有很多需要向他们学习的。
然而，你会禁不住为他们民众享受不到印度式自由而感到遗憾。navneetkumarbakshi
No, Soumya Chinese not being free is a myth and Indians are free to do what ever they want to do is a misconception.
不，中国人没有是虚构的，印度人可以自由做自己喜欢做的事情是个误解。

HI, Navneet
Really enjoy your beautiful writings and the pictures!
Tai means peace, prosperity in Chinese. Zhou refers to city. The city of peace and prosperity.
Another Taizhou is in Zhejiang province. These two "Tai"s are two different characters but sound the same so the English writings are the same.
I know from your blogs that you've been to Wuhan twice. Wuhan is a very typical city in middle China, it can represent most cities in the interior part of China. They may not be as advanced and developed as Shanghai and Beiing, but they are not bad, actually, the middle and the west are economically develo faster than east coastline cities recently. They started to develop later but the gap now is narrowing.
“泰”意思是和平繁荣，“州”意思是城市
另一个“taizhou”是浙江的台州，发音一样，但字不一样。
从你博文我了解到你去了武汉两次。武汉是中部非常典型的城市，可以代表中国内地大多数城市，也许没有上海北京那么先进发达，但也不差。其实，中西部最近发展得比东部沿海城市更快。他们发展起步较慢，但差距在缩小。navneetkumarbakshi
Thanks a lot Grace. I understand there are tonal inflections in every language and English has only twenty six alphabets. It is same problem while we try to write Hindi words in English but is not as acute because Chinese has very minute tonal variations which can't be easily picked up. That's why even when I try to speak any newly learnt word of Chinese to any one on the road he/she doesn't understand it :)
每一种语言都会有语调变化，而英语只有24个字母。同样的问题出现在我们用英语来表达印地语词汇的时候，那样会不够准确。中文语调变化很细微，很难把握好。所以我要是学了某个中文词后试图用来交流，别人就会听不懂 :)

Yes that's right Navneet. We will be confused when the tones are not correct. It probably is the most difficult part for a non-Chinese speaker?
Once an Indian businessman, who were a client of our company, where I did a part-time job when I was a student, taught me how to say Hello, thank you in Hindi. That was very interesting, though I never mastered them! :)
没错，要是声调不正确，我们会听不懂，也许声调是外国人学习中文最难的部分。
还是学生时做了一份兼职，公司有一位客户是印度商人，他教我怎么用印地语说你好，谢谢，当时觉得很有趣，不过我没有学会！

Hahaha- Neehao, that's the only word the Chinese understand when I speak to them. Last year the colony in which I stayed was called Huiang Yuing or at least that's how it was written and no matter how and what I would say no tax driver could understand but this year when I say 'Fu Yo Rinjha' they understand, I don't know if my pronunciation has improved or the way I speak is nearly how it is spoken. :))
哈哈，我唯一能让别人听懂的中文词是“你好”。去年，我住在一个叫做“Huiang Yuing”的小区，不管我怎么说，的士司机就是听不懂。今年，当我说“Fu Yo Rinjha”，他们听得懂了。不知道是否是我的发音有进步了 :)

When I look at these pics, they seem to resemble Delhi a lot. Delhi and especially Noida and greater Noida has improved a lot in the last few years you know. I think I should post some pics to convince you :-) But yeah, even the pics my husband took of Shangai seemed quite similar to the posh areas of Delhi, though he himself was of the opinion that Shangai was way ahead. Maybe the photos don't give the true picture or we don't appreciate the green grass in our gardens :-D
看着这些图片，总觉得很像德里。德里特别是诺伊达区最近几年进步很大，看来我得贴一些图上来才能让你信服 :-)
看了我丈夫拍的上海照片，觉得很像德里的繁华区，但他的观点是上海遥遥领先。也许照片不能真实反映出现状，或者我们欣赏不来自家公园的绿地吧 :-Dnavneetkumarbakshi
Dear Write Spice,
You are a good friend and a serious writer, so I can't call your comment frivolous but while comparing China's progress with Noida you must be joking. Truly the photos don't give the true picture and then one who clicks can be biased and selective too but you got to come to China to see for yourself. Until I came here, I too new little about China and after coming here I can't believe my eyes.
把中国的进步和诺伊达比较会闹笑话的。没错，照片不能真实反映出现状，拍照的人可能自带偏见和有选择地拍，你得亲自来中国看才知道。还没来中国之前，我对中国了解也很少，来了后不敢相信自己的眼睛。

I am really envious.. Good pictures..
India need many avatars to get this status.

邻居嫉妒，主人自豪
我看后真嫉妒了
印度需要加把劲才能发展成这样子。navneetkumarbakshi
Asir- You got to see to believe.
你必须看到了才会相信。
