New : Meanwhile not Just Indians/Africans,Roma Refugees also face racial discrimination by Ukrainian Border Guards. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2022/3/7/ukraines-roma-refugees-recount-discrimination-on-route-to-safety
Isn't India the same country where people live in rigid caste system on the basis of birth which promotes systemic racism and discrimination?
But when it comes to our country pride we are reunite to serve our nation...Do you know about that India?
Come on...India?
The country that people drank from the Ganges, where garbage was floating.Streets were full of ragged people,selling and eating unclean food.Rape cases are happening everywhere.In the face of COVID-19,India's epidemic prevention is one of the worst in the world,tens of thousands of new diagnoses every day.And what your government has done to this?
The vast majority of people in this country are destitute and live without dignity.What do you have to be proud of in such a country?In fact,most of the elites in India have gone to silicon valley and became Americans.
Do not worry. Days of the west are numbered. It is the 21st century and you guys are on the decline. India time is coming again. As India led the world once in the 18th century(largest economy but Britishers stole around $45 trillion dollars from India), the time is coming and by 2030 only, we will be the third-largest economy and by 2050 probably beating America as well. What is your country's future?
What is your dignity whose country colonized the world and later kicked out by everyone, now fighting for its own existence? Can you fight alone with your past colonies even?
It is the 21st century and you guys are on the decline. India time is coming again.
You sure? : https://youtu.be/SbJjnGiKF4g
Hey use the same internet to see the gdp ranking trends from 1980s till now and you will get your answer. And moreover We don't need any foreign media channel like BBC to tell us the ground reality of India. We live here, we know better about it.
Just something for you Westerners to see
Another propagandaby the west to show its superiority. The number of rape cases in a country are a factor of its population size. This is why rape incidences in india is higher as a nunber but number of rapes per 100,000 population is a more accurate measure to understand which countries fare worst. According to UN Crime Trend Statistics 2013, UK has the highest incidence of rape, followed by the US and Brazil. But to show your superiority you manipulate data. If you compare based on sheer number then definitely there would be more crime in a population 140 cr vs 5 cr.
"Garbage floating in the Ganges" : Well Garbage floats in almost every river/lake/pond/ocean of this Earth and that is why the water is not directly sent to civilian houses but instead passed through purifying plants first. "Streets were full of ragged people,selling and eating unclean food" Would love to see you provide some pictures/links to prove this statement of yours.. "Rape cases are happening everywhere". Fun fact Take a look India's rape rate is 1.80% while that of USA is 27.3% which is 15.1 times higher. "The vast majority of people in this country are destitute and live without dignity." And still India's GDP is predicted to surpass that of UK by this year's end and that of Germany`s by 2024 end or early 2025.
Only wanna say one thing at the end : "Cope"
We are proud because we are a sovereign, socialist and democratic republic nation. We are proud because we stand united, especially when we face racist people like you.
no we do not
That used to be the case 50 yrs ago. Not anymore
Does that justify the harassment and torture of Ukrainian Border guards towards Indians? Does it also justify the genocide of 85 million Indians by the British empire by creating artificial famines?
genocide of 85 million
Any source/research/validation for this number?
Having access to internet doesn't mean you spew rubbish.
here's your answer!
Use your internet and search for Bengal famine of 1943 ,Orissa famine of 1866 or click here
The British Empire ruled India indirectly, India was divided into numereous princely states that just followed British administrtaion and laws, blame your greedy kings for creating such famines. These famines were not a result of any war or natural calamity as we normally see, speaks much about them.
Elegy_No_Programmer is this what they teach in History classes in the UK? Coz if it is, then I am really worried about your country`s education policies dude...
Oh boy!! Take a break from co and read both versions of indian history (british and indian) then also try to check the facts...Countries don not accept their mistakes, if you really want to know them, you have to read both the narrativea
First stop arguing here everyone know what happen after that, and if your education system is not teaching that history then let me tell you about something,
But you forget to read history which happended after this,
1
. You didn't read aboutSardar Udam Singh
(Who screwed whole English Empire and killed a murderer into your assembly),2
. You did't read aboutMahatma Gandhi
(Who repulsed whole British empire from India without a single weapon),3
. You did't read aboutSubhas Chandra Bose
(The person who was able to convince Hitler(who fucked the whole world and also your Country) for helping us, realise the power of that guy who convince Hitler), In the currence scenario forget about your country even whole NATO did't able convince Russia for stoping the war.3
. You did't read aboutSarder Vallabhbhai Patel
(the indomitable man who integrated 562 princely states with the Union of India and prevented the Balkanisation of the newly-independent country), whole NATO even not able to unite a single country.4
. Let's talk about currence scenario, You did't read aboutNarendra Modi
, on one side whole world didn't able to talk to Russia and they have only one hope which isModi ji
(I hope you heard this world by Ukrainian minister ).And many more uncountable heroes.
One last to say.
If you can count you will found more heros in India than even your whole population
.Of course they did not read about these people...They only read about how "great" Great(?)Britain is and how Churchill was an absolute champion of a human being.
A guy (Churchill) who saw ghost of Abraham Lincon when he had been invited in white house. xD. They are reading about them nice.
Like Shashi Tharoor once said, " The sun never set on the British Empire coz even God couldn`t trust the British in the dark" xD
I don't understand if The British Don't know the History or They don't want to know the History. Britishers were never told what wrongs they've done to India. And i'm sorry to say your schools don't teach Colonial history bro. A country can never admit that they've done something wrong.
This is the Most viewed Video on OxfordUnion. It is Your University right? take a look at the Oxford Union Debate
If you see two fishes fighting in a pond then a Englishman must have passed by!
No wonder that the sun never set on the British empire because even God couldn't trust the English in the dark.
here here
In early 1940s there was a famine in Bengal as the eatables were transported to war torn Britain from there because of which people died in millions. Your history books won't teach you that you are only taught how great Britain is but the reality is that the prosperity you are enjoying today is at the cost of countless African, Asian people which you exploited in past and now you lecture the world on human rights.
Same pathetic rant.
You know I can counter all of your rants by simply asking , 'Why did you let yourself get colonised in the first place?'
as if we had choices, as if ukraine had choice.
By the same way as Russia is doing now in ukraine. You are only talk nothing more that. You talk abt strict measures against Russia, support ukraine but the truth being told you can't do anything. The great Britain is not that great after all. Go and hide somewhere Russia may enter your doors as well this is what we call karma in india which means eventually you would pay for all your deeds good or bad.
You are only talk nothing more that.
UK is sending financial,military and humanitarian aid to Ukraine. Although we have stupid and incompetent leaders like Boris and Liz, we are doing the best we can.
You really don't want NATO to send troops as it would be an outright nuclear war in that case.
Elegy_No_Programmer, some countries are so clever that they never fight war directly, they fight proxy war by sending/selling weapons ,defence equipments ,etc. Iraq,Afghanistan,Syria and now Ukraine are such victims.
You know I can counter all of your rants by simply asking , 'Why did you let yourself get colonised in the first place?
This carries the same logic and vibe as this.
ignore, I misread
"Why did you let yourself get colonized in the first place?" Do you seriously not know anything about the huge no. of Indians who sacrificed their lives for our Independence? Ur ancestors ruled over us for 200 years, looted 46 Trillion Dollars from us and still, you guys have absolutely no shame... The UK govt still has not formally apologized for the Jallianwala Bagh Massacre(I bet you don`t know anything about it) and are yet to return the Kohinoor to us...
SHAME ON UK for stealing valuable resources of other countries .
Well the time has changed now. The president comes from a caste which was earlier considered to be untouchable. BTW isn't UK the same nation which transported black people from other parts as a slave. You definitely must be the last person to lecture india on racism based on its past practices.
It did not justify any thing related to blog and caste system is a past now
And they want Indian support at UNSC and GA. #DoglaUkraine
To the above comments, the past is the past, please do not bring them up. It will only spread useless hate.
These acts by Ukrainian border guards are indeed tarnishing the image of the whole country. The country administration should handle it immediately.
These Ukrainian Border Guards are indeed racist and filthy. They were biased against Nigerian students too. They assaulted innocent students and used pepper spray on them .
Stop Racism.

“Indian students are being harrassed and torured by Ukrainiam Border Guards” — Fake news exposed
Dear Racist Bigot Don't post any bullshit link if you don't have brain or audacity to verify the claim. just because video is shot by phone doesn't mean the video is from 2000; Such a stupid logic.
Western media doesn't publish it or missed it doesn't mean the incident is fake.
xanaxxx Calm your sick racist mind.So called Modern WesternMedia
Ok what are you going to say about this. This may also seem fake to you .
Do you know what the word "propaganda" means? It's not a swear word. Wikipedia says:
In other words, it's usually not a complete fake. But it's still a kind of twisted truth intended to manipulate public opinion. This blog post and many comments look like an example of propaganda.
As for the authorities (from any country) using force, this sometimes happens and it is not always linked to racism. There may be many possible reasons.
if you had bothered to read the replies , it has been debunked in the replies. : https://t.co/IIuEWAI3JC

His/her handle is "StopHATE". But he don't know that posting these stuffs on codeforces will give birth to more hate in comment section.
So you mean all the past blogs on Ukraine and Russia were made to create hate?
Just read the comments.

I thought it was a website for competitive programming :((( not social media :((
Newsforces
In the end, there is no justice, only national interest. Those who talks about the situation in Ukraine will eventually turn a blind eye to something like this or war somewhere else in the world that doesn't not fals into the media interest. Keeping foreigners as hostage is the worst thing you can do. God blesses the victims and may peace comes to anywhere in the world, whether or not it is Ukraine.
STOP RACISM ,stop Anti-Indian sentiment or anti-Indianism countries must push for equality as the building block of co-operation. Anti-racism should be reiterated
Ahh yes, and just a few days ago this very country was asking PM Modi to hold talks with Putin and was also asking for India to vote against Russia at the UNSC. Gosh, the Hypocrisy!
Clearly, it is the will of some idiotic border guards the same as that of an entire nation. The same way if I were to say that I Romanians are the best at CP, and post this on social media (or apparently codeforces will do), it would confirm my beliefs because then everybody seen it.
If anything, this post is somewhat meta-racist, in the sense that it too attempts to create grounds for discrimination towards entire race/population based on some beliefs grounded in few examples (such as this "attack"), or more generally, stereotypes.
Their ambassador threatened India, that we should condemn Russia if we want our students safe.
First of all, please link a source.
Second of all, if what you're saying is true, then that is yet another discussion that is awards relevancy to the first comment. My only problem was that they linked this harassment made by some low-life border guards to the diplomatic issues of the country, which is both low and idiotic.
Don't know how to make a clip out of youtube video or any editing for that matter. But here's a video discussion on this topic. It contains the subtle threat and also discussion over it.
Just after that subtle "request", parents in India started complaning that their kids are being beaten by Ukrainian soldiers.
Indian news channels, which are supposed to be very pro USA (cause Sony or Disney owns a lot of them), you know, started picking up on the news. And the mood in the country went from "save Ukrainians" to complete opposite.
Edit: Also a lot of students are stuck. Getting a medical degree in Ukraine is 4 times cheaper and also a lot easier than getting the same in India. So the kids would go to Ukraine get their degree. Study. Return.
So A lot, like a lot of kids are stuck in Ukraine.

Ukraine condemned India`s nuclear tests in 1998, voted for UN interference in Kashmir, and has routinely supplied our numero uno enemy, Pakistan, with advanced high-tech weapons...So even if we were to ignore the subtle threat that can be clearly seen in the video that you have provided, I cannot, for the life of mine, understand why Indians would ever be siding with Ukraine... Always remember those who kick you when you are down, people, for karma will soon come back to bite them.
Threatening India now are they? Gosh, then I am completely on Russia`s side now..
Don't forget to pray every night to beloved god Kumara for the death of all Ukrainians and the prosperity of the Russian Empire, as this is effectively what you claim.
And just take this in consideration: Wherever the Russian empire extended in the past those countries develeloped slowlyer, as it is the case with eastonia. Wherever the "Western" empire developed everything went up. And we should not say "I side with Russia" or "I side with Ukraine", but better with "Putin" or "Zelenskyy". In any case it is better if Putin disappears, the whole "democratic" ruling is very damaging for the russian people
They are not threatening. It's actually extortion.
Hello from Ukraine,I dont know who wrote this but I'd like to define some facts: 1.all men from 18 to 60 years are not allowed to leave from country (but because of war theres bribery now,and if you pay ~15k dollars,they will let you pass) 2.Indian students are often mistaken for other nation that also lives in ukraine-gipsies.When Indian student starts speaking in Hindy,it is maistaken for their language And also,one question about tortures:do you really think border guards would torture someone,when there is war at our doorstep?
I do not object to anything you said (and more importantly, I simply do not know enough about the matter), but I want to clarify about the Romani people (often known as "gypsies", but that's a word best avoided in the 21th century):
The Romani people are from India. To be precise, there are ample evidence that they are from northern India, speak a Central Indo-Aryan language.
Hence, (northern) Indian people and the Romani get mistaken, because there were the same people, only following diverging developments in the last few centuries.
thanks,I didn't know that
I do not know what you wish to convey/imply by saying that they are "same" people. But the last time the Romani people were in India was 1000 years ago, which is a very large amount of time
Yup that's what parents are telling. My previous land lord's sister's daughter was a student in Ukraine and is stuck in Ukraine right now. That's what parents are telling, that Ukrainian soldiers aren't very nice to Indians and brown looking people in general. They are hitting them with boots, or behind of the gun on head, etc.
I don't know who were those soldiers,buut I can assure you that there are few people that are stupid enough to do that, yes,racism was a prombem in our country but now in my region nobody cares where you come from,everybody got used to them
I would say you are a massive selfish person for posting this.
If you had the time to figure out what is happening to your brothers outside of india, you definitely had spare time to discover that some of the muslim there are being torn apart. On the same BBC I saw a muslim lady was publicly assaulted, some of them got their house burnt up. Some monster piece of shit has the audacity to throw waters at women because of a freaking dress, a dress that avoids nudity. What about them? They don't feel any remorse while doing this?
I hope people who only notice if their own race is being hurt, rot in hell.
I think India is a place where every religion in the world lives peacefully(4x your(UK) population). See the history of jews and polish people after WW2.
Definitely, BBC will do that as it is a UK media and nobody likes to see their colonies getting ahead of them.
The same UK, which was once world power, is licking USA feet. The world is seeing the UK's decline only as time passes.
Let's see your BBC's real hypocrisy.
