That article really did not stray much from the topic nor was it derisive, seems to highlight an interesting governing issue, which should be fixable by creating a city level accountable government. Really don’t get the need for whataboutism. This kind of though process is counter productive to a promising growing country.

But I don’t get this attitude. No one is “telling” India what to do. It’s a news article from a global publication that does similar stuff for cities and countries all over the world.

For example, I bet you will find an order of magnitude more articles on the Economist about the US’s failing infrastructure or homelessness problem etc.

Frankly, it’s just a sign of deep insecurity that whenever anyone posts something about India there will be people popping up with whataboutism and defensiveness.
