India Poised

Yet another of those ... "Don't know why I took so long to see this" situations !

Am just now going through the India Poised webpage.
I had glanced at the Anthem in the newspaper, but actually reading through it now....it makes so much sense. The words used, the feeling it invokes... just beautiful.
The Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy trio along with Gulzar have their version of the anthem which goes "phalak pakad ke utho"

Interesting pieces in the website are:
India's tragic moments
People making a difference
India's most memorable moments

India's done so much for us and now is our chance... So What Are We Doing?

  2. I am a little pessimistic ... (and thats an understatement).

    Was going through the most memorable moments page:

    Atlast justice for Jessica Lal ...
    what about Priyadarshi Matoo?

    Justice should be like clockwork. Getting justice should not be a memorable moment. It should be more like a day-day case.

    Smuggler getting shot ... well, justice was a huge vacation before it caught up with him.

    I wait ....

  3. @ PC - yep... those were the bits I found really interesting so put in the links

    @ prashanth - not to worry about the pessimism bit :)
    I agree there's so much more to be done. This is a START and we've got everyone thinking. There'll always be someone who comes along to spoil the fun.. but, I think we as a nation are heading in the right direction.

    just realized i wasn't wrong then..
