AB TAK JISKA KHOON NA KHAULA
WHO KHOON NAHI WHO PAANI HAI
JO DESH KE KAAM NA AYAE
WHO BEKAAR JAWANI HAI
BOLO BHARAT MATA KI JAI

The nation will remain
the land of the free
only so long
as it is the home
of the brave.
HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY

INDIA-Our Motherland.
There is not a hint of violence anywhere
blooming all over r d flowers of luv & care.
It has citizens wid helping hands
who form a gr8 friendship band.
All places of it
r under d spell of a magic wand.It is full of Happiness & glory
there's nothing 2 fear.
We r so lucky we r born here.
Bharat Mata Ki Jai
HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY

Thou art the ruler of the minds of all people,
Dispenser of India 's destiny.
Thy name rouses the hearts of the Punjab ,
Sind, Gujarat, and Maratha,
Of the Dravid, and Orissa and Bengal .
It echoes in the hills of Vindhyas and,
Himalayas , mingles in the music of the
Jamuna and the Ganges and is chanted by
the waves of the Indian sea.
The pray for the blessings,
and sing by the praise,
The saving of all people
waits in thy hand.
Thou dispenser of India 's destiny,
Victory, victory, victory to thee.
HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY

Atique .. I respect all those "8" posts which you have posted here .. But I would have appreciated it well if these were not some "copy-paste" material .. If you just want to show that you can remember India by this way .. I strongly disagree..



Punit, It was nice that you shared that , but one thing which we all shud remember (condition if we don't have any idea about what exactly we are reading) and that is - Sometimes we interpret some articles in such a way which is completely different from what authorwriter is intending to convey ....
That Fwd mail was just about so called "Vyangya/ Kattaksh" in Hindi literature on those corrupted people in India .. Writer never tried in that article to give excuses for not celebrating Independence day on 15th August ..Or the meanlessness of celebrating it .. So anyone has felt like this after reading it , Its his failure ..



I think I should consider your article again ..
Breaking Traffic Rules .. Mixing in Ration shops/Petrol Pump.. Taking bribe .. etc etc...

Don't you think that every time we remember India and the freedom which we use or mis-use by not-doing and doing (respectively) the activities mentioned in your article ..

Don't you cheer for your country when they beg some awards in olympics or asiad games .. or win a cricket match .. ??
Don't you remember Ramanujan, Vishvesharaya, ISRO when somebdy make u down by saying a lot about achivements in technologies in foreign country ??
Don't you remember LN Mittal, Ambani, Sabeer Bhatia etc etc .. When it comes to enterprenuership .. and you start finding some reason to make yourself feel better ..
Don't you feel proud when you see freedom fighters slapping or insulting or killing an Angrez in some movie .. (after seeing all those inhuman punishments to Indians by them during before independence ) ??






Punit , consider Rahul's two consecutive posts as one ..
Don't ask anybody whether they follow the rule or respect India .. I know nobdy will care of your suggestion .. Better we should ask ourselves what we really feel .. Instead of cursing people taking wrong advantages of freedom and Instead of not celebrating our freedom day after seeing them respecting India on these days .. We should take initiative to do our level best to improve this situation .. Instead of remembering "Akela chana bhaad nahi fod sakta" , you should remember "Boond Boond se ghada bharta hai" ...
Again I will repeat a dialogue from another bollywood movie "Rang de basanti" .. "Koi bhi desh perfect nahi hota , use perfect banana padta hai .. hum Army join kar sakte hai , IAS ban sakte hai .." (although I don't remember complete dialouge , but I really feel that from my heart what they wanted to convey .)
