August 15 ,the day in which the whole of India ,irrespective of religion ,caste ,ethnicity ,colour and other discrimintaions celebrate to commemorate our independence from British rule and recognition as a sovereign nation in 1947 and now another independence day and another round of celebrations , but for what ? ( a fine holiday india for all ,huh ? ) Here I am not going to discuss about the celebrations , I am here not to bring back the history ,but to discuss something different .
[ as everytime I say ,there is a disclaimer at the very bottom of this blog , just go through it.]
To talk about what we are now ? , Where we are ? To ask how much we have devoloped ? To discuss what are the problems/issues that we face ? What we have learned so far ? What we have for the future ? What we have to be in the future ? What are the mindset of Indians ? innovation in lifestyle of Indians ,technology ,economy ,human resource ,youth etc.
When India gained independence in 1947 ,We had nothing big outcasting us to the outer world ,we had all the
resources to come up and so do we came up and is still going up .We have made remarkable achiements in the past 64 years in technology ,economy ,devolopment of human resource ,we are going to / is / will achieve the remarkable position in the world what the US has achieved in the past 222 years since the formation of the government .Just think about it .We are now growing into a superpower among the world leaders .
Many of us speak about indian R&D organisations as a joke.For example ,take ISRO ,whenever they are putting some missions ,public will first ask ,this time to bay of bengal or where ? , NASA tried Appolo 11 times and only in 11th time it became a successfull mission ,anyway I don't think ISRO tried anything more than 10 times.. ;) When india came to devolop our own new establishments especially in the field of technology ; state of the art facilities: rockets , launch vehicles , systems , communication and related technologies ,the devoloped world denied technology to us for many reasons and of course Technology denied became technology gained .
Today we have core competence in system engineering ,system integration ,launch vehicles ,state of the art systems and capabilities of devoloping cutting edge technologies ,because now we have a large devoloped human resource with skill and endurant mind to undertake challenges.
We still face many problems ; corruption ,water scarcity , poverty ,unemployment ,terrorism , disparities in many areas .It will get harder if not taken seriously .India ranks 72 out of 91countries in corruption according to Transparency International. It happen in all nations ,so do in ours too. But this is not something to just to leave simply .We are not going to be anything if we avoid this problem .We have all the rules ,but no full-fledge implementation .
What about the 2G scam ? Look at the amount of corrupted money ! With that money alone , poverty could've been easily eradicated from our society .
We know many of us who blame all the systems going on here ; I ,you ,they, she all may be one of them . First, let me ask ,whom are we really blaming ? System ? Government ? or the politicians alone ? What happens here is blaming each other ,because I ,we ,you ,me are all part of this thing . Certain people are destined to do certain jobs and for it to be done ,it requires lot of devotion and blood running on their brain ,ie. only capable and right people should be put for it . Many notable people such as Anna Hazare is still fighting against corruption and there too. in such protest activities also ,there are intruders and imitators ,these are the big fancies happening now .(
Nannavillenkilum nannakkan sammatikkille ? )at present to join Politics - Basic requirements are illiteracy and gundaism !
government job - They are supposed to be the real rulers but are responsible for present condition of India . few in 100 will perform.
Above all , the greatest problem which we face is terrorism , 26 november 2008 mumbai attacks and the recent 13 july explosions at mumbai and many other incidents show it , there are as many as 800 terrorist cells operating in the country as per reports .Terrorists are certainly overlooking a fact that India is a nation of full spirited brave guys and of course they too are planned as we are. That is where we have to be before them . What’s so necessary in India now is to keep a vigilant ,strict and active eye of forces checking on the airports ,rail stations etc. We need full B.proofed armed forces at the important places of our country ,recent findings of treasure at sree padmanabha temple is a serious issue ,there are many possibilities of problems there,,
There are a no.of things to be done.but for that we need to wake our Govt ,our polititians to stop fighting among themselves to get higher seats rather they must show their potential in big (terrorism,religion or caste related) issues to deserve those seats .
We are developing at a lightning speed in defence sector ,that increaces our security ,and above all that it increases our capability ,but let me ask ,how many of you atleast respect the men who stand for their nation from their first to last ? Each year ,the number of soldiers who becaome martyrs are just martyrs in words and that’s all ,and nothing more and all of us blame each other ,v.nice nation
India is rated as one of the top economies in the world in terms of purchasing power parity (PPP) of the GDP by leading international financial entities of the world, such as the International Monetary Fund (IMF) ,our goal is to put it in a constant state of devolopment ,and not vice-versa and nothing can be achieved if the way the people think is not changed . I know some people around me ,If someone goes and ask to them ,where did the Dandi march ,they will start saying answers from Gujarat to Kolkkata ,this is entirely not going to change ,
Think about it. As long as you have the drive to make a difference in the world and before that "in your nation" !
Jai Hind and happy independence day !!!
Jishnu .
