although i spent MOST of last year in nepal teaching english in kathmandu that doesn't mean that i didn't go to india.
i did. it is a third world country.
if you don't believe it then i suggest that you visit it yourself. a quick look around delhi (old or new) will confirm it.
yes there are modern things around and yes there are some rich people around but mostly there isn't. for a start look at the roads, then look at the places where most people live. gorakpur seems ok but sunauli is a dusty hole.
india is classified as a third world country by anyone who makes these classifications.
