A comment made by a Hyderabad-based entrepreneur has sparked significant backlash across various segments of the internet. Niraj Dugar, the co-founder of Holistic Prime Wealth, a financial planning and distribution firm, directed his remarks at individuals who frequently criticise India. In his post on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), Dugar suggested that those who "continuously find faults in India" might want to reconsider their choice to live in the country.

Dugar asked these critics: "One question for people who continuously find faults in India. Why are you still here." His statement quickly ignited a flurry of responses from the X users, with many expressing their discontent and disagreement in no uncertain terms. The controversy surrounding his remarks has led to a heated discussion online.

One of the comments read: “Ah because it’s their country, and if there’s a fault. They can’t turn blind eyes. Additionally getting rid of passport isn’t as easy as changing jeans. Not all have the luxury of doing so.”

“If we find faults in India, does it automatically mean that other countries do not have any faults? If you find a few faults in your workplace, do you raise an issue or just leave?” added another user. Another user said, “This is a wrong question to ask. It assumes everyone has an option to move. Finding faults is perfectly fine with the intent to change and hold people responsible.”

A separate comment reads, “I can stay here without a visa. Also lot of faults aside India does have some freedom compared to other countries. It’s not wrong to point out faults that we want to see corrected. There needs to be ownership and mitigation. Tax money usage should be optimised.”

Another user said they pay taxes and have every right to give feedback if they spot a fault. "People pay taxes, they have the right to point out faults in the system. How else does a system improve if not through feedback?" the user wrote.
