COMMON WEALTH GAMES

I did ponder over the title even when i started penning this blog.Whether Corruption Wealth GAMES WOULD HAVE BEEN AN APPROPRIATE TITLE?

But by giving such name i will be insulting 101 medalists who have performed and shown their talent & patriotism to this country..38 GOLDS,27 SILVER AND 36 BRONZE is the medal tally at the end of the games for India and in the process India also took the second place in the top 3 slot, beating England by a narrow margin of one gold medal.

ALL 101 WINNERS NEED OUR APPRECIATION IN TOTO.THEY HAVE DONE IT NOT WITHSTANDING THE LIMITATIONS INCLUDING THE LACK OF INFRASTRUCTURE WITH WHICH THEY HAVE TO COME TO TERMS WITH.GREAT CHEERS TO THEM FOR THEY DESERVE EVERY ONE OF THOSE CHEERS.

At the same time, what is painful is that the glory and honour that these athletes brought to India had been engulfed in the after math of corruption charges levied against kal madi (STONE UPSTAIRS!!).It is quite possible that the persons who are really the culprits will escape any punishment , thanks to the manner in which the political parties will fall head on heels to back them and the inability of the law enforcing agencies to do any thing against the wishes of the top brasses.

But the fact remains that this country can do wonders if there is only proper life line from those who are at the helm of affairs. Imagine the extent of medal tally, had our athletes got the same environment and infrastructure and support facilites as their competitors did enjoy.

THE LOUD AND CLEAR MESSAGE TO THE WORLD AT LARGE IS THAT INDIA IS CAPABLE OF ACHIEVEMENT AND ATTAINMENTS.ITS YOUNGSTERS CAN DO MARVELS TO BOOST THE IMAGE OF THIS COUNTRY.AND LET NOT THE DIRTY POLITICIANS WITH THEIR VULGAR AND SORDID ACTS OF CORRUPTION DO ANY THING TO MAR THE GLORY OF FUTURE INDIA..LET US MARCH TO 2020 WITH THE CONFIDENCE OF YOUNGER INDIA SURGING AHEAD.

Mighty India and Noble Indians

India is a country which should have ruled the world, given its rich heritage, tradition and culture ,supported by enviable human resources from all walks of life, with originality in approach to issues and with remarkable intelligence.Alas, it was however not to be so and the reason is well known to every one.

Divide and rule policy of the erstwhile british rule, which culminated in seeing the bloddy partition of India and Pakistan.A tamil poet beautifully summed up the proceedings when he said "iravil sudhanthiram petrom, indru varai vidiave illai"..
It translates as"Independence was got on the eve of midnight with the result,dawn is evading us till date".

What is wrong?Whether the people are responsible for this sorry state of affaris?or is it something else?A news item which appered in one of the tamil dailies beautifully illustrate and drive home the point that the enmity and the resultant hate are not the making of innoscent people, i.e by default the blame is to fall on rulers who for their own benefit(read as votes)have succeeded for decades in implanting animosity, in the name of caste, creed and religion.

Let me take you to the news item..
The place is Karumandapam, Trichy, in TAMIL NADU.
THE EVENT IS MARRIAGE OF A HINDU BOY AND A HINDU GIRL.
THE marriage was blessed by the Muslim parents of the boy and the girl.

Surprising!!Unbelievable!!!

Yes, An Auditor by profession Sri Kadher Badsha of Trichy gave shelter and brought up an orphan Hindu girl by name Easwari(since the time she was hardly 5 years old).ANOTHER boy by name Nagendran , in similar circumstances was brought up by another Muslim family(Ibrahim-Thahera) at SALEM.It is the consummation of marriage between this boy and the girl.The notable points are that though the boy and girl were brought up in Muslim families, they were allowed to retain their Hindu identity.And the most notable feature is that they were married in Hindu style in one of the Hindu temples (Ilnagattu MARIAMMAN KOIL-Trichy) .Most memorable feature is that their Muslim guardians came to Hindyu temple to solemnize the marriageAND BLESS THE COUPLE.

It is a beautiful event which signifies the solidarity of Muslims with Hindus. It shows that Religious faiths may differ, but still humanity can prevail over .This shows that if politicians keep their mouths shut and do not interfere with Religion and the religious faith, the people of India can build a better empire with out the need or assistance of any politicians.It shows that INDIA can truly become a developed nation by 2020 , as the country's ex president dreamed and predicted.

Let us dream for united india,Let us have the mind set for tolerance, forgiveness and respect for other religions.

A mighty india with noble indians will certainly be a reality.
