Looking So arrogant
It's her choice 😂
Hottie babe 😘
That's the dumbest answer..😂😂
Not the Answer That was supposed to be😅
Stupid answer,
Judge expression After listning her answer 😂
Her answer should be :
They often think we come from a third-world country but I believe it’s time to correct that perspective. We are a nation of resilience, creativity, and extraordinary potential. The term ‘third world’ reflects a mindset stuck in the past, not the reality of who we are today. Our progress in technology, education, and innovation shows that we are very much part of a modern, forward-looking world.
she looks like a churail 😂
Bekaar
When upa was their really have misconception & now about our INDIA MIGHT CHANGED PERCEPTION UNDER MODIJE,"JAI VARTIMAA

Gadhi
I don't like her at all… How can she become miss india!!!
Thats not the first thing people think of INDIA… its poverty, its unclean areas and peopleand the lack of civic sense… she should have spoken on these… nobody cares about how populated india is
It's her choice
India took in a lot of immigrations because of islamic invasion of all these countries afgani Sikhs, parsis or zorastrians, Syrian Christans, jews who were prosecuted all around the world, immigrants from east bengal and Pakistan during Partition, tibetian monks during China's invasion, indian army also guard the border of Bhutan, Nepal citizens can cross into India without a visa to work in our country just like candians can work in the US, Srilankan tamils. Yazidis were part of ancient India but they took far up the mountains they migrated during the great floods ..and have stayed there for many years . So yes india is full even though many families have only 1 or 2 kids but we still have people crossing the border from Pakistan and Bangladesh despite giving their own seperate lands for an Islamic nation of their own .There were no borders initially invaders came from middle East converting all other cultures to islam through conquest and bloody war . British divided these nations during their invasion . We were also invaded by the dutch,the French,the Portugese, various sects of islamic invaders. If the longest bloody battle existed after the kurukshetra or mahabharatha war and immigrants poured from all corners as refugees its was here in india . I've made this as short as possible but our history is too big and would be as big as an encyclopedia and have volumes and volumes if little details are added with sources and historical facts put together.
