a friend next door!!!

---

AFTER MORE THAN 6 DECADES OF PARANOIAC RELATIONSHIP, finally it seems that we have found a friend next door.

Pakistani president Asif Ali Zardari said something which stunned the whole world. Describing the militants operating in J & K as “terrorist” and calling India not a threat to Pakistan, in an interview to Wall Street Journal received much acclamation from the whole world including India whereas from Pakistani point of view they chose to ignore the matter. The media in Pakistan did have his interview but the J & K part was knowingly skipped.

This is the first time in the history that someone from Pakistani government dared to vindicate the Indian stand on J & K who came to be the president of the country. He also emphasized on the free trade agreement with India. Earlier the president said that the Kashmir issue should be left to the future generation to decide created hackles at home.

Both the nations have lost and are losing much in the form of money, resources and time which could have been used in a constructive way for the development of their countries. Indians want to be friendly with their neighbor but their earlier experiences are not allowing them to take this twist in a positive way. It is the time which will show the scene behind the paradigm shift. But we wish the long enmity ends which will be a new era for the future generations of both the nations.

anti-christian attack continues

We, the people of India

“IS INDIA A SECULAR COUNTRY? Are we proud of its cultural diversity???”

It’s not easy to comprehend the prevailed situation in India where we had a rich and ancient socio-cultural harmony. One side because of some pro-Muslims, Muslims are accused of killing Hindus; on the other side Christians and Muslims are frightened of Hindus because of some Hindu organizations. It’s not difficult to find out the reason for the paralyzed government which does not take any action if it is a matter of their vote bank. The Nanawati Commission, (appointed by Gujarat govetnment) report on Godhra case before election; what does it indicate??

If we watch the last few months scenario here, you will get the Pandora’s Box which created everything. Some “Indian Mujahidin” made many innocent people to go into deep sleep including in Bangalore, Ahmadabad, Jaipur and Delhi. Even after tight security they are successful,challenging our security that they will do what they want. We are discussing about banning IM which is a secret group, will this give a safe guard and they will stop terrorizing us???

On the other hand, some reputed organizations like VHP (Vishwa Hindu Parishad), BD (Bajrang Dal) are openly refuting the Constitution. BJP (Bharatiya Janta Party) as can’t help themselves, are doing their activities through them (organizations). They are pretending to give a shoulder to the biggest community the Hindus to show that they are safe till they are here. In recent days, they have been attacking the minorities including in Orissa, Karnataka. They do all these things openly. Shouldn’t they be banned???

I appreciate those for whom all these are political agenda only. Though they have a sense of insecurity but they are living with the other religion followers with perfect harmony. But, It will not require much to change the scenario, we need to find out the solutions ourselves and should not depend upon the government and other organizations. Only we can make ourselves proud of India.

Success Formula!!!

"A patriot is someone who loves his country. A nationalist is someone who hates other countries.” - German Thinker

WE ARE PROUD of India for its Unity in Diversity. But it is again the time to watch the effect of illness of regionalism. The unleashed violence against north Indians by Maharashtra Mavnirman Sena (MNS) in Maharashtra is an unfortunate event in the history of India and to find the Modus Vivendi is the dire requirement of the country.

MNS which can be seen as an emulation of Shiv Sena. Shiv Sena was born out of a feeling of resentment about the relative marginalization favoring increase influence of Marathis in Maharashtra. Though, it may not be fully constitutional, I support what they demanded. The local people should not be neglected whether it is job opportunity or anything as far as the state is concerned. It is the primary duty of any state to work for the betterment of its people which in turn is the betterment of the country. Later it turned towards Hindutva ideology to turn the table in other states as well. They took some of the controversial moves against the Muslims and Pakistan to prove their stand.

"The Marathi sentiment was weakening so MNS went to experiment with something new. Raj Thackray, the estranged nephew of Bal Thackray with inflammatory remarks, is provoking the local people against the north Indians particularly Bihar and UP people. They were not allowed to celebrate their festivals and businessmen were asked to use Marathi in hoardings etc, people were forced to leave Maharashtra out of the abyss. It’s not a matter related to common people but celebrities like the legend Amitabh Bachchan and Shahrukh Khan were not excused. Should we be limited to our state? This is against the constitutional right to equality and right to freedom. But ironically, no effective steps were taken by the state as well as central government.

It’s not a matter of favoring UP and Bihar, criticizing MNS. It’s a matter of nationality. Now who will define nationality??? Is the use of forces to keep the situation under control enough? We can’t change the hatred in the minds of the people in that way. It’s our time for the introspection and to go with the right track. We should not encourage this kind of emulation or emergence of Hitlers otherwise this may be a preface for tomorrows many MNSs in other states too creating many Indias.
