Consequent to this so called globalisation; and more so due to our blind following of western ways of living, we have given too much importance to media, which most of the times sells their product (with attractive sub-titles such as developing sotry, breaking news, etc), only to improve their TRPs and their advertising income. We are all becoming victims of this so called blind following of western culture. <BR/><BR/>One of the very important characterstic of Indians (and also of Indian economy) is to conserve resources, live within the means, which is fast changing due to this globalisation.
