Its time to re-think whether we really belong to an indivisible nation, sharing one single sacred land widely known as Bharat Mata, within the same international borders, most of us sharing one common religion, Hinduism . We often talk and read of brotherhood, peace, happiness, culture, traditions and many more, specially in our country, India. But where did it seem to go in our functional lives? Elders are fighting for reservation, youngsters are fighting for freedom of speech and on on the other hand, our soldiers are struggling for THEIR lives to protect OUR lives!
One of the big-time problem we are facing is that of reservation. India became independent almost 70 years back. Britishers, whom we were unprotected from, are far gone. Today, India is all about Indians, our own common people, still there are communities that feel they are insecure/underprivileged, and demand reservation living among their own countrymen. We all are supposed to be one, supposed to be treated equal, given equal status. When to the younger generations of all communities, it comes to showing modernity and superiority, none of them (ST/ST, OBC, General, the so called bifurcation of castes in India) would step back, they will do whatever it takes to prove themselves superior, but when it comes to reservation, even the modern-est of the moderns, richest of the rich want to be considered as backward!
Every community has got a big bunch of people who are underprivileged even in all those communities that we can count in our so called-unnecessarily-bifurcated categories such as General and if reservation is really all about giving chances to the underprivileged, aren't they too be given reservation? I have a few very close Jat friends, who without any reservation criterion are climbing their steps to success on their own, in their respective fields not only in the country itself but also abroad. They are live examples, that reservation do not contribute to your success or achievement of dreams, your own will and hard-work does. Another great example is Captain Pawan Kumar, who died fighting terrorists in Kashmir, a born Jat, and a JNU graduate too.
Jat community has given one of the paramount numbers of brave-hearted soldiers to the Indian army, they are known for their fearless attitude of fighting against the wrong, on the border for the love of their country, who are known for their word of mouth, who fulfill all the promises they make, who give up their lives saving us from the outside enemies, this is how the world has come to know them. What benefits are we deriving igniting our own cities and people. Aren't we letting down our own sons and daughters who are spending most of their lives, for us on the national frontiers! Till date, 12000 Crores loss in the country due to this massive agitation, has been already mapped, 20 people died, and a few hundred injured. Of-course the number seems small, but ask those families who lost their members, they know the pain!
One of the demands that the recent Jat agitation has put forward is reimbursing with Rs. 2 Cr to the soldiers family when he gives up his life on the border fighting for the country. I totally agree onto this. Today when our Indian cricket team plays/wins even a single match, they are given lacs and crores of money for down-throwing the other countries. Then why our soldiers who out-throw intruders in the game of life that they play for us every single minute, without prioritizing their own lives, go unnoticed! Is the match won by our cricket(which is not even our national game!) team more dear to us than the sacrifice of life made by our own children far away from home!
Reservation was introduced in the country to make lives better, favoring the backward classes to eradicate poverty and give them chance to participate in the state administration, but is the case same at present? The 'help' has now turned to 'demands', hundred folds more than what it used to be when it first started.
Reservation was meant to serve people, benefit them, help those in need, but today it has turned out to be the other way round, it has proved to be more destructive, life threatening, loss causing, than beneficial.
On the other hand, our youngsters demand freedom of speech, a freedom such that they can also speak against their own country, freedom to speak such that all your nuisance, strikes and 'dharnas' be tolerated and you expect the rest of the loyal countrymen to shut up and listen to your crap with patience. When you see people revolting against you, you run away, even though you say you didn’t do anything wrong, you still vanish, refusing to show up, and then you come again a few days later, and surprisingly again with the same nuisance, all over the media, every news channel have you on, how much more tolerant India do you wish for?
