Many Indian people proudly say, “Jahaan daal daal par sone ki chidiya karti
hai basera, vo Bharat desh hai mera…” but is this phrase or song from 1965
Sikander-e-Azam movie really true? The message in this song was very true in
ancient India but what about today? Is this true any more???
On one side, India praises a lot of
brave personalities, leaders and martyrs who played an important role in
freedom movement of India but what we have seen on the other side and still
seeing is more than shocking and disappointing. If India is still termed as a
developing country instead of developed country, it is mostly because of India
people. Well, on the other side, what we are seeing from centuries are the
evil, treacherous face of our very own people. These people are the reason why
India is suffering from centuries and may suffer for centuries to come.
I don’t know really from when the
treacheries really started and who started it but India must have been a better
place and would have a very wonderful history. In medieval times, there used to
be war among the neighbouring kingdoms. It is said that India never conquered
any country but was conquered innumerable times by many countries. The Mughals
and British took advantage of the lack of unity in India and showed their true
colours ruling India for centuries. Worse, there were many times traitors in
India who caused the failure of many plans among the Indians and death of their
own various people be it the leader, king, common mans, etc. It was because of
these traitors that India continued to remain behind and took late to gain
independence. Prithviraj Chauhan’s father-in-law Jaichand refused to help him
in war against Muhammad Ghori and instead sided with Ghori causing in the war
plan failure, loss of war, capturing and death of Prithviraj; capture, cruel
torture and death of Sambhaji Raje by Aurangzeb happened due the betrayal of
his own brother-in-law; Mir Jaffar’s great betrayal to Nawab Siraj-ud-Daula in
the Battle of Plassey against the British; death of brave Indian
revolutionaries like Chandrasekhar Azad, Surya Sen, etc. died due to the
treachery and so on. So, it is evident that if no people would have been
traitor and true to their motherland then I don’t think that anyone had guts
enough to rule over India. When
British ruled India, it followed the policy of Divide and Rule which even
occurred before the British rule which included taking the advantage of fights
within India. They also took advantage of greed in some Indian people. Its very
disappointing that our own people caused us such defeats and bad times.
Can we say that all this changed
today? Absolutely no. If it would have then India would not have been termed as
developing country. Today, the government is worse. They acted kind and
merciful to terrorists like Afzal Guru and Kasab who took many lives in India
instead of hanging them to death as early as possible. They took years in
hanging them. Corruption is found everywhere whether it is in school, colleges,
government offices, etc. The politicians commit a lot of corruptions. India is
becoming land of scams such as CWG Scam, Adarsh Scam, 2G Spectrum Scam and so
on. India has enormous amount of black money in Swiss mostly by the corrupt
politicians. There are still poor people who don’t get food two-three times a
day. Corruption is common in schools and colleges in the form of donations. Suspended
Indian Diplomat Madhuri Gupta turned out to be a spy working for Pakistan
informing them about many secret information about India. Many Indian people
were brainwashed into joining ISIS. Out of them, several people went to help
ISIS. This led the ATS team to become more alert and they caught several people
going to help ISIS. This shows that we have many traitors in India who are
working for our enemies even though they are themselves from India. Racism
exists at many places in India. In 2008, Maharashtrians started attacking North
Indians and people from other states. North-east people living in other states
are attacked now and then by the people of their own country who don’t accept
them as their own people because of their looks and features. This proves that
India still has lack of unity. That is probably one of the reasons why India is
getting attacked a lot by the terrorists. There have been even war between
religions in modern India. Many suffered in riots due to Babri Masjid
demolition, Godhra riots, 11/7 bomb blast, 26/11, German Bakery bomb blast,
recent attacks on Indians by Pakistan several times and so on.
So, the future of India can be in
dark which is really sad. Earlier India was the richest country in the world
but it lost a large of wealth due to many countries conquering, looting and
even ruling India. India would have been surely termed as developed country if
the problems like lack of unity, corruption, racism, etc. would not have
existed.
