Jan 2009......busiest month for me...
SDM-IMD fest,Mount Carmel,Perceptions,alumni meet etc.Now got some time to pen down my frustration on a virtual paper.
"
Happy Republic day,Proud to be an Indian"..This msz was being sent by my friends to me on republic day.
But are you really proud of being an Indian or just sent it without any deep thoughts? If yes,then is this the real patriotism that we show during any event? or just
overhyped mentality.
My question is
why we should be proud of?
Polticians,journos,Mgmt gurus everyone is giving preferance to the
59 crores of youth who will bring the change.
But r we ready? Do we have the jingoism factor as russian or japanese youth have?
My answer is
NO.
Let us think about some instances.
Last republic day padma vibhusan was given to
Laxmi mittal & Tata,
Why laxmi mittal.He who once felt ashamed of being Indian. Now Tata is in the same box as mittal??.....really....
incredible India.
Its sarkari awards ceremony.They do it for the sake of votes or when peoples' sentiments attached to it.
This year awards to karkare+kamte+salaskar given on the basis of their contribution to society . we don't bother about any hawaldar or army personnel who died either in an assult or in border.
Ash won padmashree this year.surprised?? No no I m sorry.She should win!!!You need to have good relationship with politicos to get these prizes. Wait and you will see
Mallika and
Rakhi sawant with their
peeping boobs attire taking padmashree from Honourable prez of India if they would have good relationship with SP,BSP,etc as ash n family are the respective followers of Amar singh.
Akshay kumar won padmavibhusan this time.....for....for...his levis unbuttoned adv or fear factor drama.
If not than why he won???
and where is
Abhinav bindra,Vijendar singh.......they won medals in olympics. Than wat.it doesn't matter.akshay won film awards.
Nah, as i said before you need to have
good emotional attachement with public to win the highest award.
Its all about votes,folks!!!We don't bother if you won in olympics or anywhere else.Public must know you.
Its good to read in leading newspaper that abhishek bachan is addressing his wife as
padmashree mati.what i think why don't we give Bharat ratna to
thackery and thackery co. Just 3 days back one of their groups called as
Ram sena/hanuman sena/sita sena attacked women in a pub coz the sena group are the moral police. They are born to take care of the culture. If we give special seats to women in bus,train,theatre,& 33% quota than they are supposed behave in a particular manner in the society.
wow.....what an idea!!But,Indian Constitution guarantees respect to its citizen, especially women. So do is Indian culture. Indian Constitution or our law
(IPC and CrPC) has no place for so called moral policing.
These people who call themselves as protector of Indian culture needs to ,
1)
understand what Indian Culture is all about. 2) Understand the spirit of Indian Constitution, especially, Our Fundamental Rights and Fundamental Rights, 3) Economic policy of India, 4)Aspiration of United India to become a global player in all spheres.We selected politicians with a hope that they will bring a change,as US people thought of Barack Obama.
But we never take any step. We criticize and love to give suggestions....
...but its time for the
autopsy of the inner sanctuary of our soul...
....its time to
bring the change and ....
...
be the change ourselves before its too late....
