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. But the story is same in metro city like Kolkata. We are educated enough to point fingers at politicians but not educated enough to put the waste in bins. Now who is responsible. Obviously the politician cos he is ruling this country.
There is a line from the Swades (movie): “We always point fingers on each other. But in reality we all are responsible”. We can serve our great country by doing very small things but doing it together with all our brothers and sisters (ok not all are). When we fought for independence we all fought together every section of the society fought together. But today all are busy doing only their stuff. So I think we should all stop complaining and start working. A great President of a great Country said “Don’t ask what your country can do for you but ask what you can do for your country”

Destination Moon - Pallava Bagla, Subhadra Menon

In 2008 Indian Flag was planted on lunar soil. But how did Indian reached their? What started with sending sounding rockets for the benefit of the newly formed developing country ended up being the leading space programme in the world? It gives all the details on how the Indian Space Programme evolved. Starting literally from scratch, and fight foreign embargoes and technology denial regimes it evolved in to country’s if not world finest institution. It shows how it started under the visionaries like Vikram Sarbai, Homi Bhaba, and the then Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru, and was subsequently supported by different governments. The space programme it self shows that if given in the right hands and in down in the best way possible it can not only be India’s best but also world’s best. It is surely inspiration for all the crumbling government institutions. In the later chapters it also gives us an insight into the future of ISRO. It also have the interview Dr G.Madhavan Nairof ISRO, Dr....

Negative Vote

This year I won’t be able to vote because I will turn 18 on 12th of May. So I have decided to ask as many people as I could to vote this year in this LS election. But who ever I told to vote said that whom we should vote for no one is good. In reality also all the member hardly differ from each other. Every on speaks in the same voice. No says something good for which we should vote for. And today’s youth is not that fool who will be misled by there false rhetoric. So the best way to not to vote for those people is not to go for votes. But in this way a whole generation will be created who will have no belief in this democratic system. Previously when there was the paper voting system negative votes can be caste in many ways but nowadays the with EVMs this is not possible. But what if a voter doesn’t like any of the candidates. His only option as I said above could be not to vote. But is that fair. Election Commission must start the Negative Voting system. At least then we could in rea...

Thank god it’s over!

2008 what a damn year this was. From start to the end this can’t get any worse than this. Nothing good has happened this year except that Manish have called me. This is just horrible year right out of some horror movie. Thank god it’s over now or perhaps I am going to die. I just hope that next year turns out to be much better. We will surely see how Obama is going to work in his oval office. Then we have a major task ahead of us. This is really a colossus task isn’t. I don’t know whether I am going to be able to give vote. Most of my friends will be able to but it is very sad. And I am really going to miss school days. I don’t know how the college is going to be. So get good cakes and make this year really great. Wish you all a Merry Christmas and a very happy new year.
