Yesterday was our
Independence Day. I would like to wish a very happy Independence Day to all my
countrymen. 66 years ago, we got independence from the British rule. Many martyrs
sacrificed their lives to gain this independence. Independence Day is just an
occasion to salute and to pay our homage to those brave martyrs. They are
always alive in our memories and will always be there. After ruling our country
for 190 years, British gave political independence to us. That was beginning of
a new India.
But
there are many problems in present India. We have to fight those problems to
make our country free from all the evils. But one problem is being there for
the last 66 years. British gave independence to India but created Pakistan out
of undivided India. Pakistan has always been waging war for the last 66 years.
In 1965 and in 1999, it had frontier war but indirectly through terrorist
activities, it’s attacking India. Recently, 5 Indian soldiers were killed by
Pakistani army. On 26 November, 2008, Pakistani Inter Service Intelligence sent
Kasab and his team to attack Mumbai. Daily there is some news of killing
innocent Indians in Kashmir. But we couldn’t do anything to retaliate Pakistani
actions. If US can attack Iraq and Afghanistan to eliminate Saddam Hussain and
Osama Bin Laden then why can’t we attack Pakistan when we have so many proves
against Pakistan? I don't understand that instead of having superior army
strength why can’t we have a war against Pakistan? It’s all due to weak
political boss controlling the army. In Pakistan, the control is in the hand of
Pakistani army. That’s why they can do anything against India anytime. But our
army has got its hands tied up and the control is in the hands of politicians
who aren’t capable of taking decision. American government sent its marine
troops in Pakistan to kill Osama Bin Laden when it got the sure report that
Laden was hiding in Pakistan. But Indian government hasn’t done anything yet in
spite of know that all its most wanted criminals like Dawood Ibrahim are hiding
in Pakistan. Actually, Pakistani administration is giving support to all those
who are against India.
Time has come to bring some changes in the political as well social
condition of our country. We are the largest exporters of doctors and engineers
to the world but we have many diseases and poor infrastructure in our country.
Time has come to throw corruption out of our country. Corruption isn’t just
limited to taking or giving bribes. Dishonesty with one’s duty is corruption. We
have to bring the social change in our country. Then only we will have freedom
from all evils and then only we will have freedom in real sense.
