Patriotism has found its expression in various forms over the years. since time immemorial there have been individuals whose love for their motherland has driven tem to such extremes that they have put nation before self and have readily sacrificed their own lives in order to bring justice to the masses…..and really believe me I am happy that Anna’s movement for janlokpal bill has shown all of us how satyagrah would be in Gandhi an times,,,,,,,,,,,
What a victory? Anna called it a half victory but it’s a “karara” reply for all those including me who were regularly criticizing the govt n our democracy . I was the one who called democracy as demoncracy, Anna’s victory is a cross mark on our statements....this is the power of democracy……….when public speaks ,no one dares to speak against them…..what a victory of the people ,by the people n for the people…….being very sceptical about the govt ,,,,,,I am very happy n want to congratulate all the MP’S in the parliament who stood united for the bill n showed the power they all have n which they used effectively today……..
Fasting has also been one of the most effective mediums through which people have expressed their zeal for self sacrifice for their country, and we have just seen the impact of this fasting in democracy with the Janlokpal’s victory of Anna Hazare,…..I was reading an article in a magazine today n found that Indian history abounds wit examples of such determined individuals who have gone on fast unto death for causes they believed in and achieved extraordinary feats by the courage of their convictions…
Mahatma Gandhi undertook several fasts as a part of the independence movement, even revolutionaries like Shaheed BHAGAT SINGH resorted to fasting to protest against the garve injustice done to Indian prisoners in Lahore jail.,,,SUNDERLAL BAHUGUNA’s protest against the TEHRI dam and his CHIPKO movement for the environment is unforgettable…..
Not many of us are aware of Ms. IROM SHARMILLA CHANU’s prolonged 11-year fasr(still onfast) to protest against the ramed forces special power act (AFSPA) of 1968 which resulted in the malom massacre in imphal. her stand too compelled the Manipur government to remove the act from several constituencies of the impala valley,,,,,,
And the latest Mr. Anna Hazare’s move over the lokpal bill is also quite commendable. This simple bespectacled old man has absolutely no political ambition, and the sincerity of his cause is beyond question.
The corruption rampant in our society requires such men and women who, with their strong will and determination .rise against the immoral practices and unite to wage a constant battle on the social and political evils,…and really it’s a historic movement what India see today. I am happy that we are the witness of a such a mass movement……
One thing I must admit n admire too that for the forst time I saw such an integration, where people irrespective of their caste ,religion , tribes, region, parties, people come all above, everyone from hawker to bureaucrats from a street player to top bollywood stars, all were united India was really integrated for this movement n that’s on what I have proud ,I am proud of this integrity. this approach of Indianess ,,,,,where nothing comes in mind ,,,,,,,where just one thing comes n that’s its for us ,it’s for our nation……
I salute Anna Hazare for giving us the hope n making this a reality ,,,,he is man who integrated all of us, he is the person whose movement against corruption compelled all political parties to be united to pass the bill…….his movement got such a massive support that once again ,India showed the world its power of democracy……….
It’s really a day of hope, what a wonderful night, a proud night where we all become witness of such a historic movement……
THIS IS OUR INDIA N I AM PROUD OF IT.

are we really mahaan?
Yesterday I was listening to PM speech n heard all well about our nation. India is known for its unity in diversity, it’s culture ,traditions all are so fascinating that no one even compares, it’s said that the most valuable and most artistic materials in the history of man are treasured up in India only .….
It’s always easy to make a speech and use words like integration, unity, secularism n democracy……….but its difficult to work on them,…..let’s first talk about our unity in diversity. There’s no doubt that India is a diversified nation with thousands of dialects n hundreds of tribes…….but our unity in diversity die when we talk about separate TELENGANA ,,,,,people are dying like hell just for the sake of forming a separate nation, if we are so united then why we are demanding a separate nation? Or state? why we are divided in name of caste n religion? Where our unity goes when it comes to elect a fair representative? Instead of being united for the nation’s development we get bifurcated in the name of caste, or religion or sometimes money.
Sorry to say this but far from becoming MAHAAN ,India is going to the dogs … I am angry and I can’t let these bloody fanatics get away with their dirty games…..just 24 hrs after PM unfurls flag to celebrate independence, ANNA is taken away by the police for no crime…….for how long we will shut our mouth? Is dis democracy?
Yesterday on the eve of independence day I saw the latest controversial movie “Aaraksan” n believe me it’s an outstanding movie n prakash jha deserves an award for it…..I am shocked to even think that why such a movie got banned in many states of India? What the hell these politicians have thought wile banning that?
Aaraksan tells the truth…its has shown the pros n cons of reservation n very clearly and in a unbiased way it has put on opinions of both the sides,,,, it exposed the commercial side of education which is proliferating in India day by day ……
its unfortunate that we Indians have always been more concerned about the race ,religion and caste we were born into than about being nationals. It’s time to change and hence I suggest every Indian should watch this movie because it gives us a message that humanity is all above caste. NATION is made of its citizens and hence in order to make our nation developed we need to develop our citizen first n so, it our moral duty to help others irrespective of his caste n religion.
I always say that I am against reservation which is given in the name of caste ……don’t mix reservation wit caste n religion instead it should be given on economical basis, who ever it may be, if he is deprived, he should be get extra benefits of free coaching classes , opportunities to get admitted in top colleges, but not in the name of caste, its should be all on the basis of one’s financial status…………….and this is what AARAKSAN tells…..really an awesome movie, go and watch it and tell all those medieval minded fanatic people that we won’t tolerate caste based politics now…….
I know every one us wants to make our nation proud and want to see it developing as super power soon, trust me this is all possible if we pledge that we will unequivocally embrace the idea of secularism defined in our constitution and will kick out any govt that is even remotely communal………
