We the People

It has been a month since that day has passed. I have not forgotten what have happened on 22nd of July. They brag on India and say ‘It is the largest democracy in the world’. Democracy means ‘we the people’ in there words ‘aam admi’. So I ask all of those who sit in that building and decide the fate of more a billion people of this world. Do they really care and respect us and for the democracy. Well each time they find ways to prove it by some way or the other that they don’t really care for each and every one. We are those people who have given the responsibility of making our lives better and making our country what our ancestors have thought it to be like. We consider them to be more responsible, more knowledgeable, more experienced and more disciplined than rest of us. Therefore we give the responsibility of running our India to them. But they do care for or not is still big question. Caring for it means respecting there very dear ‘aam admi’.
The Parliament of India, the circular building which ‘runs the world largest democracy symbolises that India never stop and always moves ahead’ as they say. It is also one of those places where world stares at India. If these respected people whom we elect to move our country ahead show very ugly face of India in front of the Indian and international press. Then how simple and common men stop him from saying “today for the first time I am to be an Indian’. Do they now care for us we could only hope that in future? Shouldn’t they try to think what could future generation and the rest of the India learn from them? They say that the ‘youth is the building block of new India’. But they should know that they are destroying those building blocks. We consider them to be gentle men and women. But there behaviour in that building is not better than a student of nursery. Should we teach them how to behave in there workplace. To be quite when else someone else is speaking. I and million of young Indian don’t whether to trust them for our lives and our country. But I am not complaining about a single person, or a single group of people and for a particular day. But surely 22nd July was an eye opener for all the Indians. Even as they say ‘it was a black mark on Indian democracy’. Which may have been? But they realise that before representing there group, there people they are representing India. Today when Indian is rapidly becoming an economic power house, not only Indians but world’s eyes are also on there every move. So it should be there responsibility to inspire and represent India well on this stage given to them by ‘aam admi’. It is there duty to make every Indian say ‘I am proud to be an Indian’.
What have happened on 22nd July is something which most of the Indian are not going to forget very soon. I’m in search of answers.

Climate Criminals

There was a seminar on Climate Change and Global Warming in the women' college. And most of the speakers lambasted repeatedly the United States of America for all the climate crises which the world is facing today. Thought there is not an iota of doubt in this fact USA is the biggest polluter on the planet today. But the exaggeration by them is simply the by product of the left (mis)rule which have created anti America but they them selves have done nothing less than what the Americans have done. Cos if they were so responsible to the environment then they could not have created a ministry of environment for sleep only purpose. If it were not the hard efforts and iron will of environmentalists under Subhas Dutta. The smoke spewing 2 stokes could still have been there on the roads of Kolkata to pollute. And we have seen that how reluctant the government was in this case. And the most recent one was the exclusion of Environmental Education marks from the class 12th score when going ...

F.R.I.E.N.D.S - can’t we be……….

“At the stroke of the midnight hour when the world sleeps India will wake into a new life and freedom”. These were the words which started a new era in world history. It created our very own great nation India and two similarly great nations on world’s map. (Well I am not going to give any history or geography lessons. So go ahead and read on. It is important coz it is the title of my blog. And my first blog is a bit related to it). But world never knew about those pieces which were remnants of millions of the shattered hearts of people residing in these broken countries. The broken heart which people carried with them made forget the definition of friends and friendship. But now the time have changed. We can’t live as our grand dad and dads have lived. With our young heart, passion and energy to do something new, can’t we remember what friendship is? Will we also foolishly maintain the same legacy of hate and distrust with our neighbours? But somewhere around a voice comes to me and s...

NSS “Special” Camp

After a long long wait came the special camp of our NSS unit. When we first read all the manuals and heard the briefing at the workshop from MR sir. Everyone was very nervous and thought the this is gonna be very tough job but thanks to our seniors it was lot less painful experience. I was made the team leader of team A and we were the best of all. We did the most number of survey and also gave PO a critical summary of the whole matter which was very helpful to him. We first divided our team into two groups. That is why we covered much more ground than others. In my group I must say that Lipika was the most hard working and most talkative. And Ismial or “E Smile” was our marker. We really did a great job. Guys thanks a lot. Then the last day of our camp Princi came so the journo ma'am too but when Chemistry sir (I don't know his name) came all the girl went mad every one was taking his photo graphs. Now Lipika asked Princi how to become Princi. What a question ain't it? B...
