PM Modi from talking business to talking about rape: This is how Country Changed.

In 2015 when PM Modi had his first visit in the UK since he was banned for Gujrat riots, he attracted 60,000 people in Wembley Stadium where he met ex- UK Prime Minister David Cameron. He talked about the British Indian diaspora visa problems, the decrease in the number of Indian students, business trade, work permits, diplomacy and how he has taken care and is taking care of the responsibility of the largest democratic country in the world. Modi received an overwhelming welcome in the English country with lots of British Indian chanting the famous “Modi Modi” Slogan. 
Let’s look at few things which changed in these 30 months when Indian Prime Minister again visited the United Kingdom. Those ‘Modi Modi’ chants changed to Silent protest through banners for the increasing number of sexual abuse in India and demanding justice for Aasifa in Kathua rape case. From Modi talking about diplomacy and visa issues in 2015 to talking about Rape case politicizing in recent submit in London something has changed.
Just imagine those British and British Indian people hearing about the rape case from a prime minister in a foreign land, how much it would have affected the image of India. This is not the image we India want to create in other countries. There were several foreign media who would have covered the summit and made a headline on PM of India talking about the rape of a minor Child in “Bharat ki Baat Sabke Sath” program held at Westminster’s Central Hall in London. Just imagine about all those people who know less about India, who were excited to see the dynamic Prime Minister in UK would have heard or read about the rape. Imagine the image which People who were new to knowing India would have created.
However, Prime Minister of both the countries Theresa May and Narendra Modi did talk about the work-permits, visa related issues, movement of Indian professionals in UK, Indian Students in England, diplomacy, trade, and politics but the highlight was Modi taking on opposite party for not making rape of a minor a political issue.

If this is how we want to show our country to the world I am not taking a part in it. I would rather identify myself a visitor than a resident of the country. This is really shameful for all the people who call themselves a proud Indian. This can only change if we initiate it. I have written a whole article in the previous blog on how we could change things.

Two days of nation love.

15 th  august is a day when patriotism for our country gets it ’s year high TRP. This is the day when all the legendary patriotic songs come to play their role to inspire us, to reignite the spirit of patriotism, to give goosebumps, to bring tears, to give nostalgia from school days of independence day celebration. Oh! I remembered, there are actually only two days in a year when we remember the sacrifices of never dying memory of freedom fighters and martyrs. Rest of the 362 days we spend on cheating, stealing, being bad to others, polluting, being corrupt or littering. We think that two days of so-called nationalism and patriotism is good enough for the country to grow and develop. Standing for the national anthem and saluting it on the republic and the independence day is not good enough to make us a contributor in making our country a better place. What we need is, commitment of the whole year, actually whole life. Everyone don’t need to do charity to become a contribut...

What happened yesterday...

I am writing after few days just because I am confused about the way things are going in my life. I have been thinking about getting a new job because I am not satisfied with the present one. This is going on for over a month and my conscious mind thinks that I deserve a better job. When you see less deserving, less skillful and less qualified person becoming your team leader, it is obvious to get these thoughts. I did journalism with a lot of hopes attached with it, that one day I will do something which I will love and I will also get paid for it but the world seems very cruel when things don’t go your way. I have been active on job portals more than at the current job to find something good. It has hardly been a year and I am having second thoughts on my career. I know that I shouldn’t get this impatient so early in my career but I could feel that I am struggling in finding an appropriate place to show my skills which is a genuine problem of this generation but more than that I ...

Chapter -2, A story of ‘HE’ and ‘SHE’ and how he fell for her.

… he wanted to tell this to the world.  (continued from yesterday’s blog) He wanted to talk to the girl but there was something which was keeping him from approaching the girl. She had become a real and strong crush in very few hours. It was not like that the guy was shy, he had few girls in his main college group with whom he never found it difficult to talk. But with “SHE” something was up. One day he thought, he will just go and talk to the girl casually not making a big deal of it. Next day after class when the professor told the group that the class is going to attend a seminar and this is necessary for everyone to go. “HE” thought his chance has come knocking the door, so he decided to take the awaited conversation to delay one more day. Delhi’s lifeline is metro, millions of people travel in it, so were the class going to.  The night before the seminar a discussion started in the WhatsApp group where and when everyone will meet. “HE” never was an involved member o...
