Where Are We Heading?

It’s the times for the youth to wake up and stand against the unethical activities that are on in India. When I say youth, a major responsibility would fall on the shoulder of the girls. Today she is a daughter and tomorrow, she will be a mother of a child.

The future of a child is crafted in the hands of its mother and to craft a beautiful future the mother should have a solid knowledge about the country. I have come across the young ladies at my work place or society and most of them are just busy chit chatting, flirting and rarely reading (majority of them are readers of magazines or novels). If you ask them what is there in the paper, they would let you know lots of gossiping that are published in Mid Day, Bangalore Times etc. They would know where the Wills Life Style Fashion Show was. They would know which fashion designer had his ramp show arranged in which part of the country today. They would know which celebrity is dating with another this weekend.

But if you ask them when is the BBMP elections are scheduled, what is the issue with Ashwini – Irfan Love Story… they would not know. Ask them something from the books of history which was taught to them in their primary schools. And the boys are not an exception to it; however, most of them have knowledge on current affairs at least.
There was a road side show by one of the Private TV Channels and host asked in the public, what is the significance of Republic Day (Jan 26th)? And more than half of the mob did not know why we celebrate Republic Day and this mob was nothing but mob of Youth. Would you believe that?

Do you expect a bright future of India through such eyes? They may become big entrepreneurs, professionals and so on. But what is the use? Where would our culture stand in these hands? Where the glorious History of the Great India would go?
Young Boys and Girls... get on your own feet and start to collect knowledge!! Knowledge about India, Indian History (not the one written by British, but by a True Indian), Spread the word about India!! Let’s not shout “Jai Ho” for Slum Dog Millionaire, but say “Vande Matharam”!!!
