@Khaja Ghouse M:
Because India is your next door neighbor, and a neighbor is more than a relative. Whatever your wife cooks in her kitchen the neighbor knows by the aroma .Its an tempting invitation .Neighbors have got many significant rights on each other. Despite the rancors they have for you you have for them, first comes the expectation of help in need in bad and worse. You seek medicines and doctors, for dengue,why cant seek help in other matters.I dont know whether you are from india or from Pakistan, believe it ,it will satisfy you.
