Part-1
‘Friends-they cherish one another’s
hopes. They are kind to one another’s dreams.’ By Henry David Thoreau.
The nation’s pledge in India starts-India
is my country and all Indians are my brothers and sisters. No doubt India was
like that till one or more decades back. Friendship and Fraternity are two robust
bonds that keep people glued with each other.
Is the very sense of true friendship
and fraternity being diminished here now-a-days in India? Yes, at least among
the notable Faiths it occurs and that is only because of the terrorizing attitude
of a few. They throw the battens of hatred and murder on another religion and
they in turn retort. Result loss of innocent lives creating childless parents
and widowed females. They don’t think that they all are the inherited blood of
the same forefathers.
India is nation with full of green
plants, long rivers, high mountains, scented breeze and starry sky. India- Can
we expand it as Ideal, Noble, Diligent, Important and Advanced? If not, it is
on us to make it, yes make it we should. India, a populous democratic country
enjoying its unique plurality with its variety in respect of language, caste, credo,
colour, gender and many such. Its demography varies with the contemporary time
with regard to demises and deliveries, of which the latter dominates the former which stands expanding the rate of population growth resulting in the shortage of
resources including oxygen.
From time immemorial this hallowed land
has been selflessly watering, manuring and nurturing well its inhabitants, exhibiting
hesitation or bias nil. Oneness filled concern and satiation in people’s minds,
as they followed the maxim ‘vasudhaiva kudumbakam-the world a family’. In the
meantime, some invaders from overseas intermittently arrived and pelted stones
on its culture and filled turmoil in this soil, curtailing the tranquility of the
nation.
None of the nation’s sons found any
impediments here other than the ones the nature loaded on us as draught, deluge,
crop-damage etc. Altruistic hands then themselves stretched among the members
of the society and soothed the pain of wounds of others with the cream of love. People drove their cart of lives through the
roads of this country easily and smoothly.
Now somewhere something rotten produces
a foul smell, the source of which is not indigenous sure. Some wicked external
force plays a horrid game to see the end of the country’s cohesion. The
government passed some bills which obtained needed concurrence from both the
houses, Rajya Sabha and Lok Sabha. In the initial stages of the bill’s birth,
thither-hither some murmurs took shoots, but were not growing that fast.
Scandals and rumours were cooked and supplied by some unscrupulous humans, to the
minorities especially the Muslims stating that they will fall in prejudice and face
persecution. There is no question of discrimination of any kind or persecution
of any method, in a massive nation like India, whoever may be in the office of
governance.
Unbelievable remarks about the
Premier, Mr. Narendra Modi were scripted and are scripted and demonstrated
amidst the Muslim brotherhood of the country. On what bases, such evils are
born here, don’t know. What gets poured out of my mind takes its minerals from things
which happen around and not that I am biased.
What are the unbearable harms that Modi has brought to the nation or the
Muslim brothers? Has he stopped any amenities or facilities of the minorities,
though they are undue in Hindu-eyes? Has he banned any of their customs or
rituals? Has he punished them with any litigation on some silly or fake crimes?
Has he provided any unjustified priorities to the majorities? Has he censored
any comforts extended by one of the previous governments specifically to the
minorities? The majorities were in effect sufferers under that government.
But one thing, Modi does not allow any
super individual illegally above his head as some other head of the nation
bowed before the party leader, who stood above all in reign. Nor does Modi’s
family indulge in any governance programmes and nor do his kin folk relish any
star facilities at the cost of citizens’ tax currency. It has become customary
on the part of people to present Modi with a garb woven out of faults and
blames, creating a variety of uproars, whereas they find in somebody else the loadstar
to guide this massive nation. Actually, what kind of political experiences do they
have, other than dynasty and nepotism? Had it been any experienced leader at
the top step of the party-ladder, the things would have turned meaningful. An
extensive number of capable leaders in that party had to part with their
young-age lives. Still there were and are so many people with the right
leadership calibre. But a group consisting of only kin folks is a suppressant
factor in that party, allowing none bar their family members to hold the cerebral
part.. The outcome all became the slaves of theirs, as if the
Indian union has been sold to them.
