        They’re talking about native English speakers. Did you really not get that? There are also a lot of Chinese people, try yelling that out of context, also.

          English is one of the official languages in India.

          Even if only 1/10 of Indians grew up speaking it alongside Hindi or one of the other official languages (it’s a pretty big and varied country), it still adds up to 140 million people, so the previous poster has a valid point.
