India’s Startup Mahakumbh looks grand on the surface, but underneath, the cracks are hard to ignore. While we celebrate flashy stages and hashtags, the ground-level reality for Indian founders is brutal — inconsistent funding, outdated incubators, and bureaucratic delays that kill momentum. Seed money? Mostly reserved for the well-networked or pedigree founders. Real innovators, especially from Tier 2 and 3 cities, are still bootstrapping with broken infrastructure. Compare this to China, where state-backed funds actively deploy at the prototype level, and local governments compete to host startups. India talks a lot about empowering creators, but where’s the tangible capital, the mentorship, the infrastructure? Until we fix the broken pipeline between idea and execution, Startup Mahakumbh risks becoming just another PR event — not the revolution it claims to be. 😮‍💨
