Hello All,
This Debate is mostly on a personal(Individual) level and it is a widespread topic so i would not be able to put it into 2 options like yes or no so i will try and see what i can put as an Argument Variables.
The topic i came across on Facebook and i would love to spread it across this platform and see the reaction of people.

[a few things i came across on facebook. these are few individual views!]
-----Chess (Shataranja or AshtaPada) was invented in India.
-------Sushruta is the father of surgery. 2600 years ago he and health scientists of his time conducted complicated surgeries like cesareans, cataract, artificial limbs, fractures, urinary stones and even plastic surgery and brain surgery. Usage of anesthesia was well known in ancient India. Over 125 surgical equipment were used. Deep knowledge of anatomy, physiology, etiology, embryology, digestion, metabolism, genetics and immunity is also found in many texts.
------When many cultures were only nomadic forest dwellers over 5000 years ago, Indians established Harappan culture in Sindhu Valley (Indus Valley Civilization).
------ Mr. Chirag Thapar (on Facebook)
- there is nothing to be proud for India, were people love English more than their mother tongue. were political leaders don't have courage to stop terrorism.
------ Mr. Ajay Mistry
-(ans. to why do we speak more English than mother tongue?) its just a figure to show, that INDIA has got such diversity, and we can learn any culture n its goodness easily., , for every person in world, they want to visit India, they wanna know about India, so just to spread India n its culture, we need to break the language barrier!! this is just one very small example to tell u that being a english speakin country, India n its fact, have the relevance!!!
