INDIA AT 60

Kudos to India...She is celebrating her 60th birth anniversary....In Hindu tradition this is the age for "Sanyas" or "Vanprastha Ashram"....but for a country this is a just going to be a first step of a toddler....
If we analyse the achievements of India post Independence probably we will feel elated and proud of being an Indian.Take any field ranging from agriculture,health,education,defence,infrastructure,science & technology,etc.We have myriads of successes in all these fields.
But,without having any prejudices if we review the balance sheet of India's achievements then though we will get balance in positive side but there are few areas which require immediate attention.
We are still far away to provide univarsal free education.we have largest number of malnourished children in the world.Unemployment is rampant along with corruption.Gender biasing is prevailing in every walk of life.The functioning of our temple of democracy "Parliament" is at lowest in the recent past.Judiciary is delivering justice at snail's pace.
Though future of We Indians seems very bright.Probably we will be in developed state by 2040 but if we can remove above said bottlenecks from our system then we can reach that target very soon.

Of course Kudos to India for becoming 60 and simultaneously loosing its memory power as a symbol of getting aged. Because it is forgetting and almost most of the youth are not aware of the freedom fighters and great personalities who had sacrificed their everything for the sake of the country. Instead, we r interested again to keep ourselves back into the realms of English people by the icons of Globalisation, by getting ourselves into multinational nuclear deals and so on....
Why not the top bureaucrats and politicians of this nation are not realising that America is playing its part with India as part of its neo-Imperialism policy??? Let us awake and see the depth of these policies and take urgent measures to save the middle class and the poor sections of our country.
