jinhe naaz hai hind pe woh kahan hai....

with reinvigorated spirits today the nation celebrates 60th republic day but one question that needs an answer is that, is it worth the celebrations or is it just to commemorate the republic notion of our country. sad to say but the fact is, not much has changed and seeing the present state of affairs nothing more can be expected. the way things are moving at snails pace it would take centuries for our country to get rid of all the evils that plague our society. the gap between the rich and poor will be perpetual and poverty will be ubiquitous. education is still not reachable to everyone and scenario of unemployment has exacerbated. are we going to move on like this? do we need to think on this? is this not our duty ? being responsible citizens it is but who says we are responsible..we are mere selfish beings who are busy in the race to outrun each other forgetting that there is a beautiful country out there which looks forward to us to do something for it . whatever be it but we are a patriotic lot and never miss on days like these to show our patriotism by visiting flag hoisting ceremonies and listening patriotic songs and then give a damn for rest of the days until another republic day comes. i'd rather prefer not to attend these ceremonies to show my false patriotism and take it as just another holiday because that would be like being one side of the coin rather than trying to be both .
