Button Dabhao Bharat Bachao

In the coming months of April and May India will go to world’s largest democratic process for the 15th time. World will again watch us and envy us for we being one of the youngest, most diverse yet surrounded by gloomed neighbours have stood the test of time. Our democracy has been compared to that of Athens. We have always been the beacon of hope and optimism for not only this corner of the world but for whole world. And today we have lost our hope and optimism for just few bunches of people. Who disrespect our constitution. Who disrespect the eternal sprits of our forbearer, who fought and gave there live for betterment of our lives. These people disrespect those who are guarding our border from the highest and coldest of mountains to remotest and hottest of the deserts. These people disrespect those who work hard to make India better. And above all they disrespect the sprit of people.
So now the time have come to show that we are good and we can change our country and make it better in the same way as our ancestors have done for ages. Time has come when we can select the best person to rule our lands. Because I know he is the one who is going to built roads on which I will walk for the first time. He is the one who is going to built school where I will study to be a better citizen of this great country. He is the one who is going to build the offices where I will work for this great nation. He is the one who is going to build the hospital were I will make my last journey peacefully. This is not the words spoken by me and you but by those who have still not born on this great nation. They are asking us to give them a better live than we had.
When our fore fathers fought the war for our independence from the mighty Empire, they didn’t had big tanks, they didn’t had guns or missiles. They only had dreams and hope that even if they may not breath in the free air there children will surely do. They went on to take on bullets and lathis on there fragile bodies but with a stronger mind. They spoke different languages and wore different dresses but there ideals were same. They also stood for what we are standing for today democracy, liberty and peace. Our country woke up when the whole world was sleeping. We were backstabbed by the communist. And we were infiltrated by the capitalists. But still your ancestors choose not to end this journey there. Cos they wanted to give us a better lives. They always knew that the truth will surely prevail. And there fore we have prevailed today. When our country became independent was reduced to ash. But today we are second fastest growing economy in the world. Our forces are bigger enough to take on any one who sees us with a bad a bad eye. Our tricolour was then only on red fort but today it is have travelled to moon too. But still our country has a long journey to undertake. We can’t let this journey stop here.
Today we are on cross roads again. We have our own good on one hand and on the other hand we have our own common good. Choice is totally ours to go and choose a responsible leader for our new India. Or to sit back in houses and complain about all the wrongs in the nation. Next time any incident like 26/11 occurs then you will be the one who is more responsible than the person sitting on the chair. You will at that time have no right to question him. So be a part of this great nation and push that button which can decide the fate of a billion people. And show again to the world that in this corner of the earth changes still happens not by the bullet but by the ballot.

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...
