Albert Einstein once said that everyone should feel indebted to the Indians as Indians taught the world counting beyond 9 when India discovered 0 (zero). Even the development of science and technology was possible only because of India as computers also run on binary codes which contain 0 and 1 only. So, technically speaking, India has a huge role to play in the advancement of the world to this stage. The world wouldn’t have had computers or smartphones, had India not have discovered zero.
The Star Questions
Even after this, we as Indians, lag behind global communities in all areas. For this, we blame the government and shrug off our own responsibility as a citizen. What can be done about this? How can we bring a difference in the country?
