Indian exceptionalism

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Indian exceptionalism is the belief that India is an exceptional country with an exceptional culture. This view is held by many Indians, particularly the elite.[1] Among unique ideas held are that India is the only South Asian country with a superior culture and society, its perceived elaborate cohesive society of a wide range of ethnicities, and its widespread influence of its cuisine.[2][3][4][5]
