Have the Indian people given up on India?

Over the last decade every capable person I know has left India. By capable I mean with the ability to leave. From a cab driver to successful start up founders. Earlier I used to think that things will slowly and steadily get better in India and these people will regret leaving but in the last 10 years, I feel like I’ve been proven wrong at every step. Currently the situation feels like it’s the worst it’s ever been. The entire country is the grip of toxic air pollution with a huge cost to their health. Infrastructure like roads, water, electricity are still decades away from being on par with much poorer countries than ours. Education system from primary to college level is a joke filled with horrible teachers and outdated curriculum. Every level of government is beyond corrupt - IAS officers retire with 10s of crores and Judiciary is a rubber stamp. MPs, MLAs and municipal corporators all eat 1000s of crores of public funds every year. None of them face any consequences whereas the common man will find case after case filed against them for raising their voice or worse be the victim of violence. The youth which is the hope of every country has over the past decade been brainwashed into believing that being a religious goon is somehow more a matter of pride than actually accomplishing something. The population is insanely polarised(at least on the internet) with every states people hating every other states people and the same being true for religions. Honestly it’s hard to maintain any kind of optimism looking at all of this and this is after I know and support so many people and organisations doing their best to improve things. Watching them struggle against their fellow citizens and government to do basic good is incredibly disheartening. In the midst of all this I find myself asking whether we, the majority, have collectively given up on any scope of improvement. I remember in 2012/13/14 the kind of anti corruption energy and frustration that was alive in the country and I can’t imagine that ever coming to life again. People just don’t seem to care anymore. They’re happy to be taxed through their noses while scrolling through Instagram.
