A few days back I and a few of my friends were discussing about the recent terror attacks on Mumbai...and astonishingly we all came down to the same point..it's all our fault!!
I shall explain how.......
*because we live our life pretending nothing can happen to us(until something like this hits)...
*because we take our security for granted all the time...
*because we've become blind to other people's problems..like of someone in Kashmir or Assam...Honestly speaking even now I'm unaware of why does the ULFA want a separate state despite having completed a chapter on "insurgency" when in class 9.
*because we've spent the last five years telling our government that our priority is infrastructure and development..rather than security......
*because we very seldom demand accountability from our elected representatives...and speaking about myself on this one,I'm even unaware of the names...how irresponsible!!!
*because there is so little we are willing to sacrifice for security....you stand in for a check for more than a few minutes and one starts mumbling..now how is that going to help!!!!
*because we've a very long list of what i expect from my country and virtually nothing that the country can expect from me...have we ever thought,about what does the country get ultimately other than the tax we pay,which is our responsibility(some of us even shying away from this)....
Now with all these reasons,why and how shall we go onto point a finger at someone else,be it our government or "their" government....Is it not the time that every INDIAN start introspecting!!!!
Jaago zara....savera ho gaya!!!
