Hey I'm from Himachal Pradesh! I'm glad that there are people from India who follow Leo.
Speaking of my region, it's far better from the rest of india when it comes to pollution, environment and population but the only problem I noticed is the culture which is extremely backwards. People take religious scriptures too literally and ideas like skepticism, post modernism, feminism, atheism are way too alien for the people here. You kind of have to conform to the beliefs and ideas of your local village/area in order to survive within the community.
