In my last post for INDIA IN A
TURMOIL , I talked about the ongoing riots and communal diversification in the
country. Today I am writing part II of it..
Today I would like to talk on the
plight of our fellow Indians from the north eastern part of our country India
who is considered as one of the largest democratic countries in the
world.Students, working professionals from the north eastern parts who are staying
in different parts of the country are running for their lives, we hear these
people who are staying in parts like Bangalore , Pune etc leaving in hundreds.
Why this his happening. Yesterday
2 students as young as students of class X were threatened to leave PUNE in 2
days..WOW! 2-3 days back Pune station saw all of a sudden more than thousand
people from north eastern states flocking to Pune station to leave for their
land. Doesn't it sound Ironical...Leave for their land...aren't they Indians...isn't this their lands too. After all India is a motherland for all of
us. They have the same rights as much we
have in cities like Pune, Bangalore and such other cities where they are
facing atrocities going as far as their lives are at stake.
Which parent would want their
children to stay in a place far from them where their siblings life is at risk
without any fault of theirs. I remember my school days, college days where I
had a lot of friends who are from the north eastern states but it never came to
my mind they are not a part of our country. Depending on the geography of the
north eastern parts they look similar to the Chinese but does that mean that
they are from China.
A few days back there was a news
that many Indians are joining medical colleges in china rather than their home
country as cost of MBBS or MD is cheaper in China compared to India looking
into the huge donations which needs to paid to the medical colleges. Can you
imagine people from western countries come to India for undergoing different surgeries
as it is cheaper here and those who are operating on these westerners are
trained in china??
Well the reason why I talked
about Indian students going to China is because if the same thing happen to
our students in China how would we feel? So are these people going to go to China to fight...they would not dare to. Riots in Assam are happening for
multiple reasons..starting from hunger for power and land, a wish to have their
own state for some groups like the BODOS and one will find more such reasons if
one starts searching for one.
So why should we penalize those
who are not a part of these rebels. Its like the north easterners have become a
brand now to be kicked out. Remember a few years back there was such a same
plight of many people from Bihar, UP who were asked to leave the state of Maharashtra by a political group. History repeats itself, now from people of
Bihar, UP attention have turned towards people of the north east.
This is absolute bigot ism on the
part of a few people who love wear and tear of our society and thereby our
country which is already bleeding with a lot of scams, eating out a lot of
public money.There is not a year where there is no scam in our country.Bigots
and the so called puritans of our Indian society have come out in the masses to
clean the ones which according to them are the dust, forgetting the dust they
have collected on them since long.
The worst of all , these issues
turn political, so called political gurus of India start an uproar during such
shameful acts in our country hoping to increase their vote banks and we Indians
do fall prey too. Its high time we Indians, esp the common masses come together
to choose what we really want in the country, and we know whats causing a bad
image for the country.
