Chaddi syndrome 

Chaddi (noun): A term often used to describe individuals, particularly Bengalis, who claim to be right-wing supporters but contradict themselves by openly disdaining their own culture, caste, traditions, and religious beliefs. They seek validation from other ethnicities, often portraying themselves as victims in a melodramatic manner. These individuals tend to exaggerate their helplessness, hoping someone from outside their region will come and "rescue" them from their perceived struggles.

In essence, chaddis are seen as crybabies who abandon their roots in an effort to seem more relatable or superior, yet end up as hypocrites begging for acceptance. Their behavior often includes disowning their heritage to gain attention, while simultaneously blaming others for their plight.

Debanjan, do you have chaddi syndrome? You're always trying to portray your culture as inferior.
