Why have Indian girls almost stopped wearing sarees?

Saree is still worn on a normal routine day by many Indian women. There are then those Indian women who drape sarees only on special occasions like weddings and religious festivals and ceremonies.

They themselves find sarees and salwar suits more comfortable than western clothing. Wearing jeans and top in hot and humid weather can be torturous. A cotton saree or cotton salwar suit is more comfortable.

The cultural upbringing or the restrictions by family don't allow them to wear western dresses.

Some are hesitant to try the western dresses (mostly older age groups).

Another surprising fact is that salwar kameez or Punjab suits are also still worn by a lot of Indian women on almost daily basis.

Indian men like men in other parts of world rarely wear traditional attires on daily basis. Kurta pajama is worn either as night wear or again on specific occasions. So it's women only who are still wearing the traditional dresses.

No doubt ghaghra choli or lehangas aren't as common now. They are worn only on special occasions like weddings, festivals and some religious events.

Wearing of traditional dresses till date by Indian women is surprising for two reasons for me.

In most other countries women are no longer wearing the traditional outfits. Even if they do, it's only on specific or special occasions. You won't find Japanese women wearing Kimono to work or a European woman wearing the traditional frock to her office.

The reason why Indian women are still wearing sarees and salwar kameez is that

Well, for me it's more surprising that Indian women are still wearing the traditional dresses rather than why some have stopped wearing them altogether.

How is it, in the USA, a country with 334 million people, the choice of President comes down to two aged men, one of whom is a liar as well as a criminal, one who appears to be on his way to dementia. Surely a democratic country can put up better?

Oh! I am sorry the question asked why Indian women have stopped wearing sarees and my answer is telling that why Indian women are still wearing the traditional dresses.
