My Earth My Duty

On 25th August our college organized a small Tree Plantation and inauguration of Prakriti the eco-club of RBC College. On the occasion the Principal of the college could not be present due to some unforeseen reasons. But Vice-Principal Sir planted the first sapling to start the event. Then PB sir, BB sir and other faculty members planted saplings. Ayan da our climate champ and our Special Guest also planted the sapling. Principal Sir planted the sapling on 26th. Then the VP Sir inaugurated Prakriti. BB Sir gave his speech regarding joining and asked me to take the helm of affairs in my hand. Then I gave my speech and politely refused to take charge of the Eco-Club rather I will become the Secretary and my Friend Suraj will be the Vice-President. Then Ayan da gave his speech which was great as usual. Many of my friends were motivated to join eco club after that. Then Suraj gave his speech which was very official like. Then we took the names of the student and staff members. We got arou

Vande Mataram.

This year I heard for the first why should we celebrate 15th August as our Independence Day. Latest such reason came from my very close friend Amitava. Whose reason was very technical one. But I didn't believe him and to counter him I went through technical documents. In short, books on Indian Government and Indian Independence Act 1947. But I the process I have found that our governmental system of which we point so many defects is simply work of the best minds our country have ever produced. And if it has decayed today than it is all because of all of us. I have talked about the same in the last post. We are failing today because except selected few no one thinks of the country. We are all thinking 24X7 about our self. But at the end of the day we have politicians to blame for all the mistakes we have committed throughout the Day. I have seen how our Municipality put waste bins at regular intervals. But public did not bothered to keep their town clean. We live in a small town.

Tryst With Destiny

Guys I thought of writing a post on this occasion but then I read this and I thought that what this genius have written then is valid for today just as it was in 1947. So just read this wonderful speech by our first Prime Minister. But I will surely write something in the evening. Long years ago we made a tryst with destiny, and now the time comes when we shall redeem our pledge, not wholly or in full measure, but very substantially. At the stroke of the midnight hour, when the world sleeps, India will awake to life and freedom. A moment comes, which comes but rarely in history, when we step out from the old to the new, when an age ends, and when the soul of a nation, long suppressed, finds utterance. At the dawn of history India started on her unending quest, and trackless centuries are filled with her striving and the grandeur of her success and her failures. . The achievement we celebrate today is but a step, an opening of opportunity, to the greater triumphs and achievements th

First Monthly Evaluation Meet at BC.

It was 12th Aug exactly three months from the my 19th birthday and the date when I sent my project plan. And exactly one month from the date we left for Delhi. Delhi I miss you a lot. 12th is really very lucky for me. I got there way before time cos the train schedules are in a way that if I couldn't have gone at that time I would have reached way late. But thanks to Amitava I didn't got bored. Who with his No Independence Day theory kept me busy. And I am busy with that even today. Well all the guys came at time except Biphasyee Di, Tullika Di, and Vineet. There was an Interactive session with R A Lohia from Indian Plastic Association. Thanks to Souran da. Then he gave the presentation about his project. Then Mr. Lohia talked about use of plastics. Rather proper use of it. I think someone from the south zone is doing a project on plastics. I think he could use the help. I am very sorry that I have forgot the name of the champ. But it remember it was I guy. And he talked about

Rome is burning

India for last 63 years has travelled a lot of distance unmatched by any other country and in a way never seen in any other country. But every where we look there is still a lot of work to be done. There are many places where the work has gone terribly wrong. But I want to ask is this all governments responsibility. We take pride in calling our country world’s largest democracy. But we don’t like the burden it brings to us with it. In democracy not one or two people are responsible but we the people are responsible. Today from Kashmir to Kanyakumari, from Gujarat to Assam we face plethora of problem. In the last few weeks we have seen the state of affairs in Kashmir. In the Delhi meet Puneet told me a lot about their great state. But I want to question why all the rights which we can enjoy in our place is not given to them. Are they not living in a free country? Puneet can’t even send SMS. Why is this partiality? Same is for all those Maoist infected places. Are they not citizens of In

Commonwealth Games 2010

This year is year of celebrations for all of the Indians. The festival coming up in October this year does not belong to any religion or a community. But is festival for all of us who call themselves Indians. Forget about the news created by media and the big price tag which is associated with it. But does national pride have had any price. Is not price less? I will never forget that time when I touched the Baton. It was as if something passed through me. It wasn’t just Goosebumps; something also came out of my eyes after they took the photo. It is way better than Beijing Olympic Torch. It is simply awesome. Thanks to Michel Foley of National Institute of Design. Who say that Indians are less than any country? This feeling of pride is simply priceless. No currency paper can buy that for me. And I think that is same for all of us. This year’s games are going to be the first Green Commonwealth Games. Isn’t that great. Our forefathers who fought for independence would only have thought
