Gujarat Redditor Plans Return to Canada After a Year in India Over Quality-of-Life Concerns

Media coverage highlights the post as a personal, unverified account that drew mixed reactions online.

Overview

  • The user, posting from Navsari, said they had moved to India to be near their parents and chose it over Dubai before deciding to go back to Canada after a year.
  • Poor air quality was cited as a key reason, with claims of constant eye irritation and feeling confined indoors.
  • Eating out was described as unsafe due to allegedly low-quality ingredients and unhygienic kitchens, and daily driving was portrayed as stressful because of bad roads, reckless behavior, and road rage.
  • The post also pointed to festival noise, caste and political tensions, social competition, and what the user called a show-off culture with inflated egos.
  • Financial worries featured prominently, including expensive schooling and complaints about heavy income tax, while Reddit responses ranged from agreement to pushback on claims like a drug problem, and outlets noted they had not independently verified the assertions.
