madam issmein sabhi north indians ko nahi kaha ... woh ek comparision hai ki hum north indian jyada todatein hai rules. And i have been in Delhi for a long period around 20 yrs and also been to Pondicherry, chennai and now Bangalore ... so i can see the difference clearly. as said by bro in 2 posts above its very true ppl r very calm and more balanced than us. Its a fact, either u accept it or not.

Yes,i'm also agreed to jitendra sir's view as i also have noticed in bangalore that people are more cool and calm may be in traffic or in buses or any where else...:)

Bilkul sahi dost. I have also noticed that difference.
 
ismein comparision jaisa kuch nahi.......I dont think so n i live in mumbai so i should say that the people who breaks all rules n regulations here are north indians aur ye galat ki that whtever said is right...I dont agree with the statement...sab jagah rules n regulations break hote hain to iska matlab ye nahi ki that north indians r more use to..:mad::mad:
 
Well, I too have been thinking and talking about this for quite sometime now. I worked with Infoys-Bangalore DC so happened to live in the city for more than 2.5 years (Dec 2003 - Aug 2006). With people, I had a wonderful time both inside and outside the office. How I remember that day when Mr. Murthy was addressed as 'Narayana' by a fresher. All are equal. There is no boss and no sub-ordinate.
Then I took a transfer to Chandigarh DC and spent 1 year there. And guess what. With people I had the most difficult time of my life more professionally than personally. I did not find this as the Infosys I used to work for. Office politics at its best. Boss is the king and subordinates are slaves. I have today with me almost 20 emails written to Mr. Murthy, Mr. Nilekani and Mr. Pai complaining about the bureaucracy at Chandigarh DC. Not just in Chandigarh but the same I have heard about from almost all my friends in various organizations in NCR. The bossy culture of the Guptas, Aggarwals, Goyals, Bansals, etc etc ... has not actually given a breather here in North.

And, it is not just about those highly educated people. Moving around in most cities in South-India and moving around in most cities in North of India gives two extreme feelings. I would love to read from people who have spent some time in both these parts of India.

I feel it has everything to do with the "aggression" we North Indians have in us. We like it or not but this, atleast I found, is true.


Thanks,
Sumit
P.S.: Just my experience. And, I have written generic.
 
Rightly pointed out, South people are not so much aggressive. Still, why do people forget that 1857 ki revolt ka one of the failure was south states were not involved as was whole North India...

Aur yeh Tejinder Khanna yeh bhool gaaya ki Corruption kitni hai yaahan...Aur yeh konsa choudh deyta houga...Yebhi to wohi thali kah bengun hai..

Compared to north india, corruption is less in south. Somethings are related....More power hungry politicians in North.

Well said Sumit sir.....but don't you think that regionalism also prevails in the companies in south.People from one state don't like people from another state here in south itself.But the competetion here is some wat different they always want to outperform the guys who are their collegues and are from different state.But i think on our side people will spend most of their time to think that how can i show another person down or wat shall i do so that his work will get spoilt.
 
breaking rule

I don't think that only North Indians break rule, South Indians also break rule. All types of persons exit in North India as well as in South India(this is rule of Nature...how can anyone forget it). So plz don't blame only North Indian for breaking rules.... There are many good persons in North India who believes in rules and follow them to the depth of their hearth.....

I agree to sumit's comments to an extent...Even i have worked with Infosys-blore and cgarh and there is a marked diff in the work culture at these two places...in fact when i came to cgarh, it was like i have joined an altogether diff company....

and the problem is that when we north indians go towards south, even we become a bit more polite and disciplined...but as long as we are in our own ilaaka, we take pride in breaking all rules...jai koi bhi policiyaan nai chakma deke bhaaj aave, tai us baat mai apni shaan samjhi jaa hai
 
Its just not the North Indians but all Indians break rules while in India. Some places its more and some places less. Take any rule and then compare it city by city from North to south.

1. Auto-Rickshaws overcharge in Chennai more than any other place in India.
2. People spit on roads and anywhere: Its almost same everywhere in India
3. Cheating is almost same everywhere

Has our hon'ble Lt Governor got any survey conducted to base his observation? I am sure if we take habit by habit, we Indians are almost same from North to South and from East to west. Almost every town is as dirty. Almost every Indian drives as badly. Almost every Indian has no regard for Que. Almost every Indian has no regard to law when it comes to his personal interest. Almost every politician is same. South Indians are as much prone to taking bribes as North Indians.

Hello Vikram,
Maybe you are right. But in my over 2.5 years (not an unsignificant amount of time) in Karnataka I did not sense any regionalism at my workplace. Rather I found people from Andra, Karnataka and Kerala supportive all the time. Just knew two three people from Tamil Nadu and cannot generalize about Tamil state people. Btw...these three Tamilians are good friends even today. Talking about people living in the city...I met many...yeah many...and never had any bad experience. Ofcourse, you do have bad elements in the society everywhere. Bangalore too have its share...never roam around alone after 10 in the night. The road side rowdies target Software Professionals a lot there thinking they have a lot of money[:d]! How silly!! Anyways....I never encountered them but most of my friends (the night wanderers) did get choused.

Dear Jitendra,
No one is forgetting the law of nature that you are talking about. Neither the North Indians are blamed for it. Please try to understand it is not any accusation against anyone. Just that we are generalizing how people's attitude vary across India (here North and South). Agreed many North Indians are the rule-followers and South-Indians too break rules, but then here we all are being generic. With Crores of people in both these parts of India we cannot, obviously, start counting and then declare North 10 good people South 11 good people, like that. Again I repeat, this topic needs generalization and not numbers you 10 and I 11. I am sorry for that.

Hi Deepak,
You have just spoken my heart here. I do not deny and neither I am ashamed of the fact that whenever I am in Delhi I have to be aggressive. And, I am not being physical here, it is the attitude that I am saying. One has to be, seriously!!

Respected RK Sir,
All that you have written makes a lot of sense. I think it is more in the mindset. With my experience I can say South Indians are the more humble, more down-to-earth and more supportive than the North Indians. They are willing to help even as strangers. Not that people in North do not do so...but then what I am talking is generic. This my experience. With due regards to your age I believe you would have many other things to tell us as you know more than many of us here. Also, I would like you to compare the attitudes of people of North and South on generation basis too. Please enlighten us as to how people (North-South) are different from people they used to be during your younger days. I am sure there would be differences we do not really know about.

And yes ofcourse, when it comes to personal interest everyone breaks rules. I remember in movie 'Troy' how prince Hector, the prince charming of Troy, known for his character, for the love of his country, for his consideration towards people of Troy, a leader always leading by example, intrudes in an one-to-one fight between his brother Paris and the enemy King's brother to save Paris's life. He kills his brother's foe by deceit. He acknowledges his breaking the rule but then says to the dying enemy "He is my brother". Now, it can be declared as void by calling it an mythological event. But then...nothing can be done about it. People who learn from such movies, do learn. Yup, we do break rules when it comes to the family and personal interests. And, frankly speaking, I do not see any wrong in that. I would do the same. And, I hope, there is nothing North-South about this.

Thank you all.

Sumit,

Here we are talking of breaking laws and not other social atributes. One can remain humble and still break the laws. If we talk of humbleness, no one can match the Lucknow muslims in India. Tamils never sound humble to me. Its only Andhraites and Kannads who sound humble but not necessarily law abiding. An Oriya will be extremely humble, but still break laws like anyone else. Every region has its own traits and have nothing to do with law abiding. There is only one difference one may find. Some are more daring in breaking the laws and others are less daring. I will like to know of laws which are broken by North Indians more than the South Indians. Let us be specific.

Dear RK sir,

I think there is some confusion here. Showing as being humble by behaviour and actually the character being humble are two very different things. Believe me. And, I am sorry if you couln't make out (maybe I forgot to mention or maybe I did mention) I have been stressing on corporate laws within any organization. And again, believe me, corporate laws too exist.

Thank you!!

Tejinder Khanna is a piece of $hit.

He is nothing but a pompous bureaucrat living for free in posh government housing paid for by the taxpayer.

He should be feel obliged that those law-breakers fund his non-consequential existence and shut the hell up.

Here is something for $hitinder Khanna - government should not make stupid rules that the people have every right to break. He also needs to get out of his posh locality and concentrate on real issues that affect the people like bijli, roads, water, health, education - instead of coming up with idiotic and retarded statements.

This reminds me when Sheila Dixit said.... She would rather walk than travel in a Blueline. As a punishment for that statement she should be made to ride a motorbike for 10 hours right in front of a blueline being driven by a super-drunk Ramphal. That will shut her up.

These ba$tards have no humility and no humanity.

well to a great extent H'ble LG is right when he said ablout the law breaking thing .... i for that matter drive atlkeast 100 km a day in delhi .... and the kind of civic sense which one observes on road is pathetic .... also imp. thing is tolerence levels, paticence to be in que ... ppl just want to jump over ....

chd. which is also a mojor city of north and driving experience there is million times better ... driver's there behave !!!!!

so his statement was more of a concern and less of a comment

no to be forgotten fact is that he said all of this in a trafic police programme and if such a senior person is coming up in public and showing the right side to ppl ... he should not be simply asked to apologise ...

waah baat hogi akkk ... raaah ki baat keh dyo tae kalesh / jooot .... arrr naa kaho tou phaer jooot ... (akkk sussre kimmey sochtey tak nahi) kaisa dou raaaha sammmaj hai hamara ...

funnny fact is why biharis mr. lalu and nitish are bouncing upon this ..... probably political mileage .... and the emotional north indian once again falls in the trap of these ppl ... and starts revolting/commenting

arent they satisfied from the current situation of maharashtra .... that they are initiating the "NORTH" thing in "NORTH" itself


On a SAD note

One bad side of this guy for we jats is that as proposed by delhi govt. - compensation of Rs.75 Lac / per acre file was denied by him only .... (its a rumor circling) i do not claim this though.
 
Delhi vs. Mumbai

.
Mumbai’s bus service “BEST” is really best. The conductor remains near the gate, the passengers board the buses in queue and they stop when conductor directs them to do so, then they wait for the next bus. Despite rush, boarding and getting down is calm and peaceful.

One Delhite happened to be in Mumbai. He was standing on a bus stop. When the bus was approaching, the guy ran towards the back door, ignoring the queue. The bus-conductor asked him “Babu ji, aap Dilli se ho”?

Delhite - “Aap ko kaise pata? Mere maathe par likha hai ki mein Dilli-wala hoon?”

Conductor : Haan Babu ji, aapke maathe par likha hai. Dilli-wale bhag kar bus mein chadhte hain”.

North Indian take pride in breaking law

I think, I am very much agree with what Sumit say about bangalore. I am here in bangalore for 2 years now & my native are in Delhi.

Most of the time either in office, traffic, malls or any other place North Indian have an attitude of breaking the law then following it.

South Indians are more religious and emotional persons while north Indian are more POLITICS flair.. I have see North Indians ppl seeing an opportunity and trying to grad it by any mean...at the same time south india will work hard to get that opportunity.

Again, those are my personal view.

Hi Buddy,

I agree somehow with you. However, I feel south indians were discplined by britishers and they learned to follow the line and they never question anything whether its right or not.
On the other hand, we question everything. I am in bangalore from last 4 years and realized that they are peace loving ppl.

Sometimes we must chalenge the rules and break them. I think this is what all great ppl did. They questionend the rules and manipulated them.

Cheers
