In my speculation, INDIA is extraordinary
and unique country blessed with diverse culture, tradition, lifestyle, language
interplaying with each other in harmony.
Recently on a face book application i
searched the meaning of the word “INDIA” .it laid out the rivers or women from
India. I realize that yes these two are the most precious assets of our
nation....rivers are the initiator , the provider of life to our homey....woman
as a mother ,sister ,wife is prime maker of a family. .....leaving this apart I still deduced the quote
`incredible India’ as funny title to a nation with plethora of problems like
unemployment, poverty, population, corruption etc... Persist. But when we saw
the ‘Gods own province’ by our own naked eyes it’s really an outlandish nation.
My recent two consecutive trips one to
kerala and another to Amritsar compelled me to observe that we are so much
linked to nature and geographic features of that particular place. I wonder
why, we are not much proud of fascinating nature of india. The sunrise in
kerala or in Amritsar gives the same zeal and zest for a new day....but this is
not the case with Indians .South Indians and north indians are very apart from
each other. I wonder how Britishers could rule such a variegate country for
more than 30 decades?? ....answer would be they used only this “heterogeneity”
as a shaky factor. I remember the partiality being done to Hindi knower and
malayam speakers in south india.....our mother tongue is of no use
there......illustrating my own experience and here is the description...
I lost my way to hotel in Kerala....it
was 10 in the night ...and the problem was that i even could not ask any
one.....but there was no way out (language barrier)....however ,some fishermen
did told me the way, but in their own code words(plz god send someone to decode
them)and nor they knew English!! ....surprisingly a man called me out from behind and said ‘aap aisa karein second lane mein first right turn lein’...i was
relieved not because of the access to my hotel was in my knowledge but
listening to the Hindi words...i interacted with him...he was a retired army
personnel n asked him ‘how could you speak Hindi so fluently being a
malayaly’.He instinctively replied....”HUM USS DESH KE VAASI HAI ,JIS DESH ME
GANGA BAHTI HAI”and laughed proudly...which left me dumbstruck and made me
realize.....
That it’s upon us
guys that what ‘we the people’ take it up to.....!!!!
