 India - 

India is a very famous country across the world and I don't think that there is any need for its Introduction. And even it is not possible to describe a country like India in a blog.

India is full of diversities also for example diversity of religion, diversity of food, diversity of caste, diversity of language, diversity of people, diversity of region, etc.
