Perhapsthe direction the discussion should take is to ask what we can do for our country and not what our in our country makes us proud of it.

But, I certainly don't agree with other parts. What's wrong in your uncle asking you if you are not proud to be Indian? Realistically speaking, our uncles are not on facebooks, they don't re-tweet or just invite other people to like their contextually dumb groups. I do agree that "Being Proud to be Indian" doesn't mean that a Romanian is less proud to be Romanian. But, it is as dumb as Neo trying to shun the value & pride of being an Indian. We are proud to be Indian because of our ancestors, the great people who have lived and roamed on this land. But, our coming generations won't be proud of India. You know why? Because somewhere in 2000's people started questioning what's great about India. The failed to make a mark so that our coming generations will be proud of being Indian.
