Opening
Ethics are a function of culture and cultural mores. What may be ethical in India may be severely admonished elsewhere. Eg: Indians do not mind impunctuality much. Yet in some western countries, even a delay of a minute is met with profuse apologies.
So emotional intelligence depends a lot on culture. Eg: In India, when we say namaskar or touch feet, we convey a lot without saying anything. The other person immediately feels respected and an emotional bond is formed.
Differentiating Indian society from Western in terms of E.I:
Indian → more community based values are preferred. Eg: Reverence, Respect, Honour.

→ The role of family is given a larger importance in shaping self-awareness and emotion management.
→ Presence of close knit community allows healthy sharing of emotions leading to lesser cases of abandonment & loneliness.
Western → Individualistic society
→ Family values play smaller role
→ No concept of arranged marriage and general lack of community and family involve-ment may lead to higher instances of difficulty in expressing & dealing with emotions
