Is India extraordinarily hypersensitive to external criticism? | Debate

From #WendyDoniger to #EvanSpiegel to #justintrudeau , and more recently #rihanna  and #gretathunberg  Thunberg, we tend to go up in arms at every hint of being slighted or criticised by an outsider. Is this because we are exceptionally thin-skinned? Or is this because we are trying to regain control of the international narrative about India, still plagued with #colonial  prejudices.
This is a complex matter and opinions tend to diverge drastically. With the aim of exploring this topic in depth, some of the brightest minds of India from varied fields including Politics, Technology, History, Entertainment and Journalism came together in this insightful debate.
