Freedom or responsibility!

Today I become eighteen year old. A day for which I have waited for many years. I will get lots of power. From now, onwards only I will be responsible for steering my life. But somewhere I have heard that with new powers comes added responsibility. Likewise, with all this freedom and power many responsibilities have come to my shoulders. Firstly to respect and trust Constitution of my nation as a grown up. Because it was the work of the greatest India minds, and it promises to give all of us a better live. Then I have to select the best people to take care of my country and its constitution. Then to get all the rights promised in that scared book to live in this country I have to do all the duties it have asked me to do. Moreover, if something wrong happens in India, then I have to bear the responsibility also with any bureaucrat or any neta. From now onwards I must follow the roads shown by truth not those, which are easy. In addition, have to respect the sacrifices made my ancestors who gave me this freedom. No one nowadays thinks in this way. However, this is the prices we pay for our citizenship. Until all of us pay these prices, we cannot make our country the best. Above all, we have to believe in India. Its ideals and principals that have stood the test of time and will continue to do so in future also only if we the people of this nation can trust it.
During this summer holidays I have only thought about how I will be responsible for making my country better. And after I turn eighteen this actually becomes my duty. I thought would I be able to do all these responsibility. Then a voice from my inside said “Yes You Can”. I hope that the long and tiring journey which I am going to start today ends well some day, and I will only pray to God that to make my country the best.

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...
