Just because people do not say it does not mean they do not feel for the men in uniform. Today, if there is one institution in India that has unflinching support of the people are our defence forces.<br /><br />Besides, soldiers and even bureaucrats work on the principle of anonymity. It is for the top generals and the political leaders to hog the limelight while the soldier endures silently.<br /><br />Since you have raised it, why stop at the soldiers. No body sheds a tear for the farmers who commits suicide. They feed the nation, including the soldiers - however brave they may be, they cannot fight on empty stomachs.<br /><br />I agree that the media has a big role to play in making people aware of the ground realities. But then we, as citizens, talk but seldom carry out our responsibilities.Chandanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13171966012260816180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7206447838093538416.post-67335500237463347242012-04-11T17:58:19.240-07:002012-04-11T17:58:19.240-07:00Dont worry dude.

Even for the generations to come, Soldiers and their sacrifices will be cherished forever. <br /><br />Soldiers are like stars in the skies,bright and magnificent always. Film stars and sports icons are like crackers, they are bright but short lived.<br /><br />People remember Bhagat Singh for his sacrifice than Dhyan Chand for his skill.<br /><br />We should ask ourselves, the culprit is within us. We prefer to read about what SRK said about DON2 than reading how Tukaram Omble captured Ajmal Kasab.<br />There is a ten page bio-data on Ajmal Kasab in Wikipedia, half a page on Tukaram Omble. <br />We gave Omble a posthumous Askok Chakra and have forgotten him forever. <br /><br />Omble had to be the national icon, but shamefully his sacrificed soul is buried in denial to accept his heroic acts.<br />There is no wonder if Kasab is released tomorrow on humanity grounds and he becomes a MP in congress :(<br /><br />We care for nothing, we live for nothing worth living, we just exist and scream for India only for cricket.<br />Our media is cleverly utilizing our inactivity in all spheres of society.<br />They show what they want to us to see, not what we want them to show. Money and greed has ransacked the noblest of professions.<br />They can portray Anne Hazare's revolution as a comedy show, Baba Ramdev as greedy politician.... etc etc<br /><br />I remember two songs, one from AK 47's 'hey raam, this is India.......' , second is from SP Bhargavi ' ee deshad kathe ishte kaanammo'.<br /><br />I agree with you, it is a disgrace for the brave 'Sons of India', 60 yrs after independence, its time for another round of revolution. <br />This time the enemies are within us, rebelling against oneself and the way i and you live.Dinesh B Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08293631530944296308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7206447838093538416.post-26169297773244371972012-02-22T18:11:14.022-08:002012-02-22T18:11:14.022-08:00Array sahi hai re.. ek bhi cancellation nahi.. if ...Array sahi hai re.. ek bhi cancellation nahi.. if i start writing with pen.. my hands will surely start paining now.Akshat Jainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15390859123098088865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7206447838093538416.post-41396929692999149682012-02-20T01:24:15.608-08:002012-02-20T01:24:15.608-08:00Thanks a lot for such lovely comments!Thanks a lot for such lovely comments!Varunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13911437244977847067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7206447838093538416.post-75699422068711039742011-11-26T20:40:36.361-08:002011-11-26T20:40:36.361-08:00Just stumbled on your blog...nice creative idea......Just stumbled on your blog...nice creative idea...and you haven't noticed how handwriting really can b like...yours is way better :D<br /><br />and the bouquet, well that's one thing we can't have in a digital blog...was a nice read...'ll go through more in a while...Pooja...https://www.blogger.com/profile/11213070221400527867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7206447838093538416.post-65095216171251050402011-08-28T22:33:03.864-07:002011-08-28T22:33:03.864-07:00Hey Anonymous,
