When I watch videos made by foreigners travelling around India, I really cannot fathom how or what to say about the country. It is a disaster of epic proportions - the infrastructures, the dirtiness and pollution, the lack of caring for the environment, the broken transport system, the dilapidated trains and the endemic corruption above all.
Youtuber, Mr. Bald and Bankrupt, had this to say of Indian toilets - never look at toilets in the eye on trains in India as it will make one throw up. It was that bad. On one trip in one crowded train, Mr. Bald and Bankrupt had to stand right in front of the toilet with his friend, and that friend literally threw up from the smell.
There was another video by another Youtuber, 'Girl in Paradise', titled 'In Delhi, India, I found the dirtiest and smelliest place in India, worst place I have ever seen'. Watching that video, I could almost smell the stink watching a fish market with fish lying on the ground in piles, without refrigeration and without ice, fish obviously rotting under such hot and humid climate in India, the stink must be overpowering. And this open-air fish market was just next to a garbage dump in Delhi, so figure it out.
India is an impossibility to be able to return to normalcy and just festering in the rot. The problems are so widespread, so totally out of proportion, it boggles the mind. How to solve all the problem is beyond human ability. And yet the Indians love to compare with China, lol.
So, in a country like India, how could India Airlines be expected to be normal when everything has broken down. India is getting worse by the day, without any semblance or even a hint of being able to get better at all.

In today's overheated India, the fish on the ground would be cooked 'half rare' by the time someone buys it. And in this hotness in India, the smell from the rubbish dump next to the fish market will add some special flavor to the half- cooked fish.
If I am to visit India, I would not venture to eat Indian food. I think I would starve to death for sure.
Even Indian food cooked by Indians in squeaky-clean Singapore is unlikely to attract me. The methodology of the cooking matters more than the food.
