INDIA TODAY

Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru in his world famous book "Discovery of India"had described India as a Holy& Beautiful Country of Imperturbability.Are we living today in that India he dreamed? Winston Churchill at the time of handing over Power to India on getting Independence had said"Dont hand over Power to India because one the people of India would fight among themselves for Power & destroy this Holy & Beautiful Country" We Indians have proved what he said true in toto in every respect. Today we are not living in a country very Holy& peaceful envisaged by those leaders like The father of Nation Mahathma Mohandas Gandhi,Sir Vallabhai Patel,Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru,Dr.RajendraPrasad,Dr.S.Radhakrishnan and many more such Holy men fought very hard for getting our country free from the rule of the Britishers. The India Today is a land of Turmoil with Violence,Corruption& Victimisation of different sorts. There is not a single day on which we could get up peacefully without hearing any one of the following crimes viz Murder,violence,theft,Rape,atrocities on women,victimization of small children,or man made accidents by way of sabotage. The peculiarity of today's unrest & sufferings everywhere is that most of them are manmade & not natural Calamities. The main manmade calamity today is Gangrape of innocent women including girls who are not even matured. It would appear no Law or Law enforcing people could stop such happenings which are being repeated every day. The latest addition of another crime is the child trafficking from one State to another.The main motive behind this ,it appears,is to put such children including girls to work in restaurants etc &later on when they grow make them victims of Rape by offering them for such acts at big price. Apart from this co erring the religion of the children to increase the population of a particular community Is also planned. It appears that there are people in India posing themselves as Human Gods& mislead people in various ways to make easy money & easy sex. Students community should be alert about such people & keep them at distance. Another disaster facing the Students community is the use of Drugs of various kinds . It looks that there are many a agencies in the country to supply Narcotic drugs(Kanchavu)even in the form fob cigarettes at the gates & surroundings of Educational institutions .this is one of the biggest menaces facing the Students community today.Though the Authorities do their best to curb such activities by using force level available to them,such activities to continue to flourish manyfold. The main reason for the illegal activities allover the country is the lack of employment opportunities People are tempted to carry out any kind of illegal activities for the sake of money for their survival. The increase in population,despite Family Planning,during the past many years since independence is also a factor contributing towards the unrest& illegal activities among the people of India. More than 130 Crores of people in India are considered to be believers in religion with faith in God. How can such people could indulge in different illegal activities such as corruption?So, such people found to be involved in illegal activities should be sacked from the religion by religious leaders themselves. Women should get equal opportunities in Education& jobs like men get.Dowry the worst menace in the society should be curbed at any cost.Dowry in money,in kind like Flat, Villa ,Cars ,estates should be banned & hdispensed with at any cost. Economic inequalities between Rich & Poor is widening day by day.the Rich become richer& the Poor become poorer. Every measure should be taken to control this trend as well as the trend in deceiving the laborers by Union leaders With a view to becoming themselves richer & even milliners.Poor workers do not realize what is happening to them. Modernization is something every country needs & in fact a must for every country.Whether we like it or not, the Modernisation should be carried out.But at the same time it should be ensured that our Cultural Heritage and Environmental protection are afforded topmost Priority.
