Its our 60th Republic Day!!!!!

Dear All,
We are now celebrating the 60th Republic Day. This day has lots of importance in our Indian History. It was the day when India became a truly sovereign state and the constitution of India came into force. But today I feel very sad about what i saw in TV news channels & around me.

Yesterday when i was watching a News Channel where the reporter asked many of the MLA's Ministers regarding our republic day but no one was able to give an accurate answers for that. I even felt bad when the reporter asked one of the minister to sing our National Anthem which he was not aware about. I was really schoked with his sudden reaction that he made "Vande Mataram, Jai hind!!". The person who was elected to serve the nation & was unaware about the National Anthem.

Another incident that i rememner is that in my friends shop one person came from the Vegetable Market to order a Hording for their market on occassion of Republic Day. The content in that Hording was to show all the Soldiers & Police men like our "Hemant Karkare". But the person was not aware about their name like Who is Hemant Karkare, Who is Mr. Salaskar etc. the I asked him, do you know who were they, he replied "Mujhe kya karna hai bas publicity ke liye karrahe hai". The statement was very schocky. I was totally blank after hearing his answer.

Now the question come like how many of us are aware about our National Anthem, Our Shaheed Soldiers & Police Men. The main Q. Why we celebrate Republic Day????

If you have the answer, please comment in my post.

Regards,

Local Train Travelling.

I am a regular traveller of local train that also from Ambernath to Kurla & vice-a-versa it takes almost 3 hours for me only for the train travelling. Every day its a new experience in this travelling, sometimes we can hear beautiful songs by some drunkards even some ear bursting abusing words. When i was in Datamatics i used to have 2nd shift & sometime I reaches home at 2.30 AM at time I used to travel by 12.53 AM local where one group sings their favourite song. I dont remember the whole song but the line was somewhere like this....

"Acha Chaska Laga Mujhe Beer Bar Ka, Yaar ne hi loot liya ghar pyar ka" they have changed the line of the song "Acha Silla diya tune mere pyar ka.....".

We used enjoy that song whenever we travel by that train. It was really one of my great time with my other friends.
I think i am now used to such situations. but what about those people who want rick or car at their door step till their office. I have always imagined what if someday they have to travel by train, even if it is in 1st class.

Enjoy the train travelling!!!
