Saluting the staunch nationalist Bal Ganga Dhar Tilak, on his birth anniversary......the true patriot who envisioned the integration of politics and culture. His immortal saying- 'Sawaraj is my birth right and I shall have it' instilled the much needed enthusiasm in the freedom struggle . The same enthusiasm is needed today, to give a fitting reply to the Separatists and Pakistan who are misguiding Kashmir.

गुरु गोबिंद दोऊ खड़े काके लागू पाएँ।
बलिहारी गुरु आपनो ,जिन गोबिंद दियौ  बताय।  

Will the moment ever come when Pakistan undergoes political metamorphosis and is seen as a peaceful country rather than being a harbinger of terrorism? The notion of Pakistan in the world is an apt case of polite fiction..... Since time immemorial, Pakistan has incorrigibly been branding terrorists as martyrs. Its continuous unwavering support to the egregious acts of terrorism and brazen impenitence over the issue of harbouring terrorism calls for international isolation and inclement steps.

हुंकारों से महलों की नीव उखड़ जाती ,
साँसों के  बल से ताज हवा में उड़ता है
जनता की रोके राह समय में ताब कहाँ ?
वह जिधर चाहती , काल उधर ही मुड़ता है।

 सबसे विराट जनतंत्र जगत का आ पहुँचा
अभिषेक  आज राजा का नहीं, प्रजा का है।
                                             रामधारी सिंह दिनकर  
   तुर्की की जनता ने पुनः लोकतंत्र की ताकत का सुखद परिचय दिया है जो अनुकरणीय  और सराहनीय दोनों ही है। 

The evil of terrorism or the Kashmir issue can't be solved by a few people sitting in an ivory tower. It needs tremendous efforts on ground. Mental sickness of Muslim fundamentalism is taking a barbaric shape in the form of terrorism. Tackling this rampant menace needs intense strategic planning.
Terrorism is spreading throughout the world and the terrorist attack on Nice(France) is nothing but an act of cowardice. The world must stand united and walk the talk to tackle this evil.                                                                                                                                                                         

There is no plausible reason to prioritize Muslim personal board and Sharia law at the cost of Justice. We should welcome Supreme Court’s decision of evaluating triple talaq on the lines of our Constitutional principles. Innumerable muslim women have been ostracized owing to the discriminatory Sharia law which undermines the RIGHT TO LIFE WITH DIGNITY, guaranteed by ARTICLE 21 of our Constitution. The courage of women like SHAYRA BANO, AFREEN, SHAH BANO and many others needs to be appreciated. A Uniform Civil Code is of utmost necessity in an egalitarian and democratic society. Political parties and Religious preachers, instead of playing their crass games, should welcome the decision and not try to be a barrier to this wind of change.

THEORETICAL EDUCATION MAY GIVE FOOD FOR BODY BHAGAVAD GITA GIVES  FOOD FOR SOUL

Tonnes of congratulations to the Haryana Government for including  Bhagavad Gita in the school curriculum. Those who consider it saffronisation of education system  are just like  ‘Frog in the well’ who know nothing of the open oceans .  Our national character will be glorified the day we start considering the importance of our valuable cultural heritage and sustain and preserve it for glorious future. Gita helps children to fight the battle of life through moral and virtuous  path and build a strong moral character which would be beneficial for the future of nation and for the cleansing the declining moral character of society. Besides imparting theoretical education which will provide them’ food for body’ the education of Bhagavad Gita is necessary because it  make them well equipped with  practical knowledge i.e. is ‘the way of life’ and provide them the most  sustainable and evergreen food which will  be necessary for their all round development. That food is ‘ Food for Soul’ the basic ingredient of life.
