India safe?

yogazen asked:


I want to go to a yoga teacher training school in India next spring after I finish massage therapy school. Is it safe? What parts of the country should I visit and what parts avoid?
I think it’s perfectly acceptable to ask about safety…especially since I will be going to India alone. I am in no way trying to insult anyone by asking this! And to talkbox…of course no one is going to go to Iraq for a vacation, but since my husband is there, if could get a job, yes, I’d go to be with him!

    i live in india.its relatively safe but you have to be careful about wearing decent clothes,not talking to strangers,basic street smartness.yoga school will proib be in the hills that area is very safe.unsafe areas are actually everywhere not in terms of riots and stuff but men-repressed and lechy.

    you should avoid the parts where they grope foreign women,
    which is basically the whole country

    It is safe, I been there many times from my childhood and nothing happened! But is it really needs to ask about any country that is it safe or not? I think people who live in Asia, for them this is very ‘uneasy’ type question! My bag was stolen from New York and money too! But I can’t say that America is not safe!

    President Bush is telling, Iraq is safe now, do you feel safe to go there?!

    India is a relatively safe country but try to remain in crowded places and never ever wear provoking clothes, Stay clear of very helpful “uncles” and you’ll enjoy our country . I welcome you on my countrymen’s behalf
