.....pulse of the Nation...

.....disparity , is in itself a disease....defies all epidemiology tools....the  cold spell not so long ago in the Northern & Eastern parts of the subcontinent....the not so lucky at large , with miniscule means had to tide over the crisis of Chills & fogs...children of these unlucky few r worst hit....let alone the old gentry....Our's is not a Developed Nation ...but developing...grappling with these issues of basic nature.....the khadi represented, whn initiated as austerity, cheap, sustainable nd low cost easy to manufacture at home.....represented self sufficiency.....taking a cue frm the Father of the Nation.....who practised wht he preached.....soon the sheen of the khadi wore off with manipulative power brokers...who utilised it to suit their constituency.....to be the Sarpanch of a Panchayat called India , one has to feel the pulse of the Nation....& its not so lucky gentry at large facing adverse situations.....can one imagine wht the position of the Executive is..... nd its highly exalted altar of guiding the destiny of the country.....personally I will be reduced to dust in humility if I call myself an Indian , feeling the pains of my not so lucky fellow citizens, if I am to be catapulted to a high altar.....with the passage of time since Independence, the sensibilities hv nose dived.....to  project urself as an  ordinary, 'sewak', wearing down to earth clothes is necessarily a crime ,whn u really do not practise wht u preach.....nd whn u don't believe in plain living & high thinking.....:the Quintessential tool of the Sewak....nd to wear a designer dress with ur name manufactured in the material....it is even worse & I am let down .....with the demise of the common man's creator (R K LAXMAN), the common man also had a silent obituary...tht day.....!!!!...the Mukhiya frm the powerful nation ,though appeared v humble....holding his own umbrella in the rain....development of a Nation is in its Mind set....the Colonial past lets us down...with its evil practises of disparity still persisting.....robustly we got to deal , nd get our act together.....if India is to achieve Democracy in the truest sense of Equality.....!!!!
