Nemechi yeto mag 26 January

Aaj 26 January... Republic Day....
While i m writing this i don't even remember "Kitvaa Republic day" aahe te..
Google baba ki jay... and I know this is 57th republic day.

Why this is so?
Is this because everything has become so routine?
We do same things twice every year... Once on 26th Jan and then again on 15th Aug…
There is some parade in New Delhi and state capitols....
As usual flag hoisting functions take place...
At every function some gals will gather around a mike and sing same songs every year... Year after years....

All schools will call students to gather early morning... and again same story repeated... some guest will come and give same speech... year after years....
Venue may change...guests may change but speeches and songs and overall nature of the ceremony remains same...

From a few days early all shops start selling those paper flags...
no one cares even to maintain the size ratio for the flag dimensions...
Right from the republic day... all those flags start appearing scattered on the roads... dustbins... gutters and everywhere....

Why we have to show our respects on only these two days?
Why a Naveen Jindal has to fight for so many years just to get a right to hoist flag anytime during a year?

Yes... It is necessary to show to all those terrorists and all how we are proud of our nation and how we are united as a nation.... and certainly such functions send a clear message across.

But why does is limited to only those two days only?
Why we require be “asking” or sometimes “requesting" to stand up during national anthem?
or are we loosing the spirit and becoming a self centered society where we expect a lot from the nation....
we want the government to take care of us... give subsidies... reduce prices etc etc... but at the same time people don't want to pay taxes... we want the government to subsidize the education... but we don't want to stay back in our country and server it's economy but rather we are interested in settling abroad...

Too much…

I check some Pakistani news papers out of curiosity only to find them full with articles against India...
Even the Google news I see that out of 10 featured news... 8 are Pakistani news agencies... all spitting venom against India... giving more publicity to news against India... somehow projecting it as an enemy of people in Kashmir...

Somehow this day was no special for me... I m as usual in office...

But again...
when i am doing nothing...
Do I really have any moral right to write all this?
