Anybody who has done any coding will realize that the problem in India is the exception handling. There is none. Only the happy path is coded. If you follow the happy path your life will be alright. If something goes wrong, accident, health issues, fire, theft etc… (exceptions), you are basically screwed because police is incompetent, it takes forever to get justice in the courts, no health service, no life\/health insurance.<\/p>\n
