Time to think about farmers.



Hey this is ankit, I am a media student. During my holidays i went to my village in vaishali district which is in bihar. While enjoying my holidays i went through some parts of village and near by places.  What i saw was really dissapointing and discouraging, farm feild were vacant,  there were no sign of any farming in most of the feilds.  I talked to many farmers , there were few reasons but the most common reason was regarding irrigation. They told me rain didn't happen enough so that they could farm and produce anything. When i asked that there are many schemes through which tubewells are provided to farmers , Haven't u got it,  eveybody said NO. After talking a bit i got to know those people who were totally dependent on farming used to produce their  wheat,  musturd, pulses etc  and earn revenue from it but this year except wheat they were not even able to produce even for their own uses.

We are in 21st century and still dependent on rain, conntries like america,  china, austria and many others are spreading pesticides through aeroplanes and seriously look us.. 

Don't u think that time has come to think about farming,  farmers who do a lot of hard work in worst conditions,   so that we could eat all the time instead of only taiking and debating abt intollerace, beef matter,  political issues.

There was outrage and anger at Nirbhaya’s time, it has come again, but how much circumstances changed?

On 16 th  Dec, the country was shaken by the brutal rape of Nirbhaya by some non-humans in Delhi. We were angry like hell, we wanted to kill the convicts ourselves even though it would have ended up making us murders. We said many things, like their private part should be cut and they should be left on roads to rot without any support. They wanted them to be burnt alive so that it could set an example to not let it happen again. We did candle march in almost every city including the famous India Gate candle march asking for justice for Nirbhaya. I must congratulate everyone, they were hanged excluding the juvenile and we got justice for her. One more achievement was India getting its juvenile law. The juvenile who was convicted in the case was set free on 20 th December. There was anger and outrage in the country which is happening to rise again, courtesy of Kathua and Unnao rape case.  Getting angry and outrageous is good if it is for the good cause. At that time, we...

Chapter-5, A story of “HE” and “SHE” and how dream made him do things.

…after that they have only seen each other on Instagram or Facebook.   (continued from chapter 4) After few months they stopped talking to each other on WhatsApp. It felt like the end of his one-sided short love. Next morning “HE” woke up with a dream in which they were fighting against all the odds for their love. The guy took some inspiration from the dream and didn’t want to let his love down. His love wasn’t mutual so he had very little chance of succeeding in it.  He thought, he better tells his feelings to her before it gets too late otherwise he would regret it his whole life. He was very sure this time unlike other times that he would tell her about his love. The guy was playing his last card to make her own, but God had written some other fate for both. “HE” finally wrote a proposal and thought twice before sending it to her. I would have loved to quote his proposal but that will be breaching the privacy line. The proposal was precise and had a lot of inf...

Chapter 2, We played Cricket on mountains

In chapter 1, I opened about how I got into this mass communication. In this chapter I will tell you about the experiences of field. When I was done with graduation, I was looking for a job. Even though I wanted it to be related to journalism but I didn’t get one. There were people back from hometown telling me to find one and utilise my time.   My brother had a friend, who got me hooked with my first job as a content writer which didn’t last more than 20 days. Neither I enjoyed working there nor they paid enough for me to stay. Once, when I was working there I got a call from someone whom I knew from my previous internship asking me to work for a   web portal in Himachal Pradesh. I was more than happy to take that offer into consideration and after talking to my parents I finally decided to take that. That’s how I reached Himachal Pradesh probably one of the beautiful places I have ever been and found myself a dream job. It was really awesome roaming between mountain...
