Today is my younger child’s birth day which coincides birthday of one great person.I feel the relevance of posting this blog after watching “photo of father of nation”photo while opening the net in Google home page.May be that my post will provoke many to comment on my line of thought.I am posting this blog as a tribute to the fatherless child who rose to the Chair of Prime Minister of India,and he was the 3rd prime minister.I do not find much on him over the years in Government or media on his birth day which is 2nd october.He was a common man like us and his biography speaks all about him,how he used to go to school crossing river and so on.Now come to what is most publisized item of the day.How many Indians in 21st century can afford to read abroad,and do legal practice abroad?I have no doubt that very very few may have the privilege,and how many of them are from so called “royal back ground” and later switched to have “loyal back ground”.How many Indians have command over a foreign language,and wrote something which is treated as a classical book besides doing politics?In childhood days I remember “Jai Jawan,Jai Kishan”.Such a big and wide publicity was given when any great leader passed away may be due to unfortunate reasons by becoming victim of fanatics.But how many of us know the tragedy or mystery behind the death of a ruling Prime Minsiter in foreign country?How many of our ministers resign now a days because of a rail accident and accept the moral responsibility.He did it during Nehru’s time.Who first started the “green revolution and supported ,boosted the morale of soldiers?He came and passed away in a mysterious death in erstwhile USSR and the death mystery was never made public.
Have we seen any celebration on his birth day?
We are shameless Indians and I feel pity for the Government.
