Another July, Another Blast and again the roads of Mumbai spilled with the blood of Innocent " Emerging India"'s citizens. It seems Mumbai has become a ripe field for terrorists who get away with their evil works at ease and leave behind a trail of blood, dead bodies, cries and chaos.
Mumbai has got Two faces, The First face is - A city of dreams for many, people from nook and corners of India flock here to make their dreams comes true, a city of bollywood- World's Biggest Film & entertainment Industry, A City of Industrialists where Industry Moguls Like Ambanis are racing hard to claim the richest man on the earth title, A city where even people living in slums dream of making a fortune by exploiting the rich potential of the city, A city where property market is booming even in recessionary times, A city which never sleeps.But yes there is another face of this city which is - A city prone to terrorists attacks, A city where underworld is still ruling despite being the headquarter of state police and security agencies, A city where all the politicians are involved in a scam or another and no one dares to touch them, A city which witness gang war on its road almost every day, A city where drugs is easily accessible and A city where No one is sure of returning back safe once steps out from their house.
Mumbai is the face of Emerging India- A nation which has recently got a distinction of being the Biggest Arm importer of the World . The rise of India is not going down well with its adversaries and they are pushing hard to destabilize the country with such cowardly and covert attacks. Within India there are many anti national elements which plays in the hand of these adversaries and are being utilized to create chaos by terrorist activities. Despite of saying this a thorough introspection is required that who really is responsible for creating such anti national elements and the first answer you get is India herself.
Today India is a cash rich country, there is enough money with the government which allows scams of multi million crores to happen regularly but they don't have enough money to erase the poverty, to erase the illiteracy , to erase the job insecurity, to erase the discrimination on the lines of Caste, creed and religion. These demons are playing high on the individuals which turns into anti national elements as they are easily lured to do such heinous crimes for petty money.
The Blast has killed score of people, many of them were the only bread earners of their family , once they are gone no one knows how the families are going to survive , the trauma is such that can break anyone, A peek into the lives of theirs will only show us the agony and devastation they might be going through, there is a dead end in front of them, any person which has got a heart will cry looking at the faces of little children who lost their father, wives who lost their husbands, parents who lost their wards and the biggest lost for all them was a hope to survive . These questions can rattle the mind of any sane person but not our politicians or so called social activists as they are busy in scoring brawny points on each other by finding faults in each others statement.. Everyone is coming out openly to do politics on the dead bodies of these innocent citizens, Media is busy in shouting foul on the attitude of the politicians and raising their TRP's by playing with the emotions of victim's families.... News Channels are serving the interests of different political parties to which they are affiliated , their main aim is to malign the image of political parties and political leaders but hardly they are concern with the sufferings of the victims.
Today we are witnessing these things and still act as mute spectators, till the time we , The responsible citizens of our Motherland " India" will act in such cowardly manner, these selfish politicians, media and other government missionaries will keep on exploiting us and like today we will again sit in a drawing room and conveniently accuse the system, the government, the political parties, the media and everyone and anyone and enjoy our tea and snack. if this is what we are going to do then we have no right to criticize anyone, we are not worthy of criticizing anyone because we ourselves are the biggest enemies of our own nation by allowing all this to happen.
The time has come that we " The responsible Citizens" should stand together and take a firm stand against such anti national elements and take strong action against all those who are responsible for letting it happen, be it the media, the politicians, the government,or anyone...let us pledge that we will not allow anyone to play with the resources and potential of our country and if they dare to do then we are going to nail them down with full force...after all there is no bigger strength than the strength of Mass...I hope and believe that the dream of Ramdhari Singh Dinkar will come true one day... Leaving you all with a retrospection with these lines of Ramdhari Singh Dinkar...
सदियों की ठंढी-बुझी राख सुगबुगा उठी,
मिट्टी सोने का ताज पहन इठलाती है;
दो राह,समय के रथ का घर्घर-नाद सुनो,
सिंहासन खाली करो कि जनता आती है।
Jai Hind !!!!
