Currently Indian education system is in plight. There is so much to do to change education system, right from policies to mind set of typical Indian parents.Build social infrastructure on PPP model:Build schools ,residential system, separate toilets for boys and girls on PPP mode.Introduce activity based learning:We need to revamp the system, where teacher/instructor/mentor comes to class room, recite few words/solve few mathematical problems on boards and leave the class asking students to solve the rest of the problems in text book.Illustrate science concepts with day-to-day examples. Ask them to prepare models of various science concepts. Involve them while teaching rather than simply preaching various laws/concepts.Inculcate not just technical skills but ethical values:In recent studies/news papers, we studied that many people who are well educated are committing crimes(physically harassing, cyber crimes). So teaching ethical values are needed.Give salary hike to teachers based on their performance/ Introduce performance appraisal:Enthusiasm in teacher evades as time passes. Introducing this may help in retaining their interest in teaching.Give freedom to choose the stream they are interested in:Mr X is earning, ** LPA, working in a IT firm after completing his engineering. So neighbors of X also persuading their son to join engineering after his intermediate course.Parents has to stop this comparison with neighbors/following sheep herd attitude. Let alone student make his/her own decision, which stream he wants to pursue.Do not create NO LIFE, if you fail in exams attitude: Do not create, this fear among student that if they fail in their exams, they remain as failures for lifetime. Create a stress free, friendly environment.

I am going to write a brief answer for now, and probably improve it over time. Sorry if anything is confusing.First of all, a comment regarding the wording of the question: It's questionable whether the women in western society are more liberal/less abused than the women in Muslim countries. I am not going to discuss this here since it's not directly related to question, but, you can find the viewpoint of Muslims on this by searching or asking another question that addresses this.Secondly, how do followers distinguish between good change and corruption? Does it make sense for a follower to go ahead and remove some of the requirements that God has commanded according to his/her reasoning? One of the important ideas in Islam is that the requirements of Islam as they were revealed to the prophet are final and no one has the authority to change any of them. Finally, even if Islam says that God had commanded the women to dress modestly, this doesn't necessarily mean the government should enforce this on women. It's a matter of one's preference, and despite popular belief, in many Muslim countries women aren't enforced by law to cover themselves. They are not considered non-Muslim for not covering themselves either.

Culture is ever evolving. Expecting it to be constant over time will create problems. Similarly "Culture of India" is ever evolving and not stagnant.  Cultures influence each other. They don't destroy each other. Note change in economic, physical conditions also influence cultures. Cultures are like ideas, you can't stop or check them. Trying to do so would not only be futile but will also involve invading space of others. Understand matters relating to culture are very subjective. What might seem wrong to you might be perfectly okay for someone else. Moreover we often see only one side of the picture and judge with our definition of right and wrong. These definitions may wary from person to person. Understand this. Now to answer your questionWesternisation is influencing our culture but not destroying it.If by "checking" you mean checking yourselves then it is okay. But if you mean to restrict others or imposing your will on others it is not acceptable. You shouldn't do it.Yes, Indians care about their culture. Put a question on quora and you will get many excellent examples. There is a lot of wisdom in Indian culture but there are also narrow minded beliefs. We should take the positives with us and try to remove the negatives from our personal lives. "There is so much to learn for everyone. But we might fail to do so if we keep a closed mind and think that we are always right."- My Grand Mother. Hope it helps.Constructive comments are welcome :)

There are hardly any markers which say that the British would not have left India. The British never believed in cultural assimilation like other powers (Spain, France, Portugal). They hardly married with the local population and hence were clearly seen as people who were carrying of India's wealth to England. They did not practice inter marrying even in the NE of India where they had converted most of the people to Christianity. They also had the idea of the 'white man's burden' and believed in a civilizing mission. If instead India had been ruled by Portugal or Spain who followed the policy of intermarriage, Indians would have never revolted against them. This is because India was used to assimilating invaders from different parts of the world. At the same time even a neighbouring village could be considered an enemy. That is the reason why we never saw the Moguls as invaders before the British era. We would have called the British as 'settlers' and not invaders or colonisers. It would have been a situation like South America were natives and settlers have become one. In the worst case scenario it would have been like North America (US, Canada) where the native population was wiped out. In fact we were lucky since the white settlers to North America were actually searching for India and had accidentally settled in their 'New Found Land'. That is why the native Americans are still called 'Indians'.On the other hand if Portuguese had ruled over India, we'd probably become like Goa where the people do not really hate the Portuguese. Instead they still use Portuguese passports as a passage to the EU. The same goes for Northern African nations and France. On the other hand the British even recently changed their citizenship laws when Hong Kong became independent to prevent people from Hong Kong moving to Britain since they were of a different race.A comparison with countries like Australia, Canada etc. like some others have done is wrong. This is because these are Anglo-Saxon nations and still follow racial policies. Even today the NSA leaks by Snowden shows that these nations prefer racial solidarity and created the 'Five Eyes Group' which consisted of US, Australia, UK, New Zealand and Canada. Democracy or any shared culture does not make sense in these cases. Considering that they have still not changed their mentality, it is futile to think that the British would not have had to leave India with such a policy.

Liberalism? Conservative? What do these really mean?

Liberal comes from the word Liberty, because Liberals love liberty, the opposite of what conservatives want.

Liberals started America, they rebeled against the far right wing conservative British with their high taxes and excessive government, and won.

Conservatives say they want smaller government and lower taxes to get elected, they always increase government control over our private lives and and always increase taxes. The current conservative adminstration proves this, as they have increased government bureaucracy and spent more than all other previous administrations combined.

Famous Liberals:
Abraham Lincoln
Dwight D. Eisonhower
John F. Kennedy
George W. Bush
George Washington

Famous Conservatives:
Richard M. Nixon
Timothy McVeigh
David Koresh
Osama bin Laden
Saddam Hussein and his Republican Guard.

Comment on neema s's answer: Wonderful copying and pasting, however the foreign economist Adam Smith has since been proven wrong by the American Professor John Nash, and I am an American not a Scotsman.

Comment: Am I serious? My answer has more truth in it than any of the other answers in here.

George W. Bush is the most honest, and most liberal president since Clinton.

All islamic wackos like bin Laden and Saddam are radical conservatives. Even conservatives admit that.

Timothy McVeigh was a wacko conservative.

Richard M. Nixon was a radical conservative. He had 95% of all Americans on his enemies list.

David Koresh was wacko conservative also. Religious wackos are almost always conservatives.

Since the time of King Edward the Royal Succession Act 2013 was enacted in 2015. It said that in the UK and the Commonwealth of 16 nations only the first 6 people in line for the crown at the time had to have permission by the king/queen to marry. Those six people are whoever is in line for the succession at the time of the request for marriage. This act also eliminate the bar to Catholics being married and divorced people. It also allowed the next person in succession to be either man or woman. Charles agreed to not ‘style’ his wife Queen of England but the as a Countess or Princess escort. He also wanted his title to change from Defender of the Faith to Defender of the Faiths. Times are changing. At the present time the six people in succession are: Charles, William, George, Charlotte, Henry (aka Harry) Andrew (youngest brother of Charles) after that it would be his two daughters Beatrice and Eugenie and then on down the line. IF Harry and Meghan have a child he/she would supplant Andrew.
