Hello everyone. Hope you had a wonderful
weekend, coz the first day of the weekend was celebration of a National
Holiday, and almost all Indians were heard saying, “wishing all of you a very
Happy Republic Day.”
Happy??? Republic??? Sounds strange, doesn’t
it?
For all the people who take pains to remember
their country only on 2 days a year, it may sound very normal; but what about
the one’s who live their life for the country? For those who have utmost faith
in our Constitution? For those who seek justice and are deprived of the same?
And for those who are victims of the failed system of our country?
For them, this day of Republic is merely a prank; a prank which the entire system plays to ridicule the people of the so-called “Republic of India”.
Incidentally, I came across some of the points
mentioned in our Constitution, especially pertaining to Fundamental Rights
mentioned in Part III, Article 14 to Article 32, which guarantees the 6 rights
as below :
* Right
to equality
*Right
to freedom
*Right
against exploitation
*Right
to freedom of religion
*Cultural
& educational Rights
*Right
to Constitutional Remedies
Sadly enough, these rights are merely words
written on the paper, having no real-life significance. In the past few months,
we have seen all these rights getting snatched away from the common Indian
citizen.
*When the Constitution itself mentions the Right to Equality, its our own government who creates divide among various sections of the society. The recent example being of the Home Minister, sushil kumar shinde, who called Hindus as “terrorists”, and when he was opposed for his allegations, the govt played a game of Divide & Rule by stating that shinde was opposed only because he is a dalit.
*Similarly, right to freedom has been ridiculed time and again by the same govt. For eg : Article 19, Part 2 gives the provision to assemble peacefully & without arms. But when people protest and gather to oppose the evil practices of the govt or for justice for a rape victim, they are trashed out by the police, thus depriving them of their basic fundamental right. And there are no actions taken when 50,000 terrorists from Bangladesh & Pakistan, along with the local goons riot in Azad Maidan, the biggest & the busiest area of Mumbai, with not even a single arrest.
*Not to forget the Right against exploitation, which, the people are seldom aware of. People are so used to getting exploited that they don’t even know that there is a provision in the Constitution to fight against such evil. Infact, whenever people come forward to ask for any Right, the govt inflates the prices of the basic necessities, thus diverting the people’s attention.
*Another funny thing I came across, was the Right to Liberty mentioned in the Article 21. When a pervert called M.F.Hussain, made nude paintings of Gods, many liberals come in his defence, stating it as an art and the freedom to express. These same liberals are silent when actor Kamal Hassan made a film, Vishwaroopam, which created a controversy as it potrayed the members of a particular community in a “wrong” way. Why is it that liberalism applies only to express(or rather exploit) only one community, and not the other??? (Again ridiculing the Right to Equality)
It is said that Public Opinion is the key to run a successful democratic-republic state. There are various agencies which influence the public opinion in India, namely Political Parties, Press, Electronic Media, Radio, Public Platform, etc. Amongst them, the reality of the media, is known to the entire country. Free and impartial media, which was supposed to be the “Lighthouse of Democracy” is under serious hazard. What was seen in the newspaper of 26th Jan, 2013 was anything but impartial. We saw almost 2/3rd of all the newspaper displaying ads of the “success” & “achievements” of the current ruling party. (The biggest joke one can imagine on a Holiday), while half of the remaining 1/3rd part was filled with ads related to offers in super-markets.
A few news channels which showed clips and facts related to the formation of the Republic of India, and its struggle, were in full praise of the ruling party, while many failures of the Republic were hidden from the people, as if what the electronic & print media will show will only be the ultimate truth. And it would have been so, had there not been social media. Social media, currently is the only Public Platform that is exposing the failure of Republic, without any pressure or influence.
When the media is been controlled by the anti-nationals, and the public opinion is manipulated, how can you rate the Republic as successful??? When common man has to fight for his basic rights, and still doesn’t get justice, how can you term the Republic as successful??? When the devils are sitting on the important positions of the system, how can the Republic be termed as successful??? When people are not free to express their views and when common man is brutally man-handled when he wants to oppose the evils of the govt, how can that Republic be successful???
It is been said that, “When injustice becomes law, Rebellion becomes duty”.
Sincere request to the govt of India to still
come forward and accept your responsibility to turn this FAILED REPUBLIC into a
successful DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC, as mentioned in the Preamble of the Indian
Constitution, else a day will come when people will come forward to become the
government by themselves.
JAI HIND
