On one hand, some Indians abroad are creating so much noise and pandemonium that even the natives are getting annoyed. Because of dance, loud music, and various other antics, many foreigners end up asking, “Do you even have something called manners and civic sense?” And why they should not?
That is why, whether it's matter of taking out wedding processions on the streets of London or Canada and blocking traffic, doing garba anywhere and everywhere, or talking loudly and creating a ruckus inside airline cabins -- we are rarely left behind.
And all this end up creating quite a negative impression. But in spite of all this, two videos from Canada are showing a completely different picture. In one video, In one video, an Indian man in Canada is being told, “Go Back!” And the most shocking part is that he had not created any chaos, had not blocked any road, had not misbehaved with anyone, and had not done anything that could justify such humiliation. Yet, simply because of his identity, he had to hear those words and face that insult in public.
In another video, however, some Indians are seen helping a native girl and protecting her from a local man. Instead of ignoring the situation and walking away, they stepped in, stood by her side, and made sure she felt safe. In that moment, they were not just helping one person, they were also showing that the same Indian community, which often gets judged because of the actions of some people, also has those who stand up for others and do the right thing when it truly matters.
So, while some people are damaging the image of the entire community, others are helping in building it. After all, the people of any country are its biggest brand ambassadors. Because in any country, your identity is not defined by your passport, it is defined by your behavior.
