We are 'SECULAR'

-


Sonu Nigam's tweet on Azaan to Supreme Court verdict on Babri Masjid..things have happened this week which make me ponder,rethink and analyse whether we actually are a SECULAR state...

1.Supporting Minorities make u secular.
2. Bashing the largest religious populist sect makes u secular
3. Supporting a Fatwa makes you secular
4. Protest Hanging of a terrorist who belongs to minority (involved in parliament blasts) makes you secular.
5. Supporting Intolerance makes you secular.
6. Having Iftaar and no Diwali Dinner makes you secular.
7. Supporting religious fanatics visa vie  patriotism makes you secular.
8. Criticise ganesh mandal ke loudspeakers..but supporting Azaan makes you secular.
9. You can't have a Hindu vote bank. Supporting / Fielding a Muslim candidate makes you Secular.
10. Can have farmers  from a sect suffer..media won't highlight..support the suffering of another (MINORITY)sect...you are secular..

India...70 years old...World's largest democracy..perhaps the biggest and fastest growing economy...we love shahrukh.salman..aamir..azhar...akhtar..we love our kebabs...goa...mt mary church..Mother Teresa..golden temple.
China fights with us because we love our Dalai Lama.
A nation that knows how to grow,love,have faith,care and sympathy,have respect,courtesy and compassion.
The roots built by Ashoka to Shivaji to Akbar to British to Gandhi... We are a lineage of Indus civilisation..let's not let few weak and shallow individuals disrupt what we are built on..secularism for me is the Tricolour flying high..higher and highest...and we as citizens of India are and will be the sole reason for the same..

A thought that I thought I must share. I am open to all the criticisms..just a request (please do not kill me)

Jai Hind!!!!

“I've always been a true believer in my transparency, reflecting equally on everyone and offering them a clear view through my eyes. By remaining clear and authentic, I aimed to bridge connections and provide a genuine perspective, allowing others to see both themselves and the world through my unclouded vision. Then why was I deceived? While I was beautiful to none, none looked at me— only through me . It felt as if I were invisible, a mere presence drifting past their gaze, never truly seen or acknowledged for the essence I carried within. I've always been an introvert, opening up only when someone genuinely wanted to know me. Despite the times I felt overlooked and neglected, I still found solace in comforting others. When they reached out, I set aside my own wounds and offered support, quietly staying by their side. Each moment of their need became my purpose, even as my own struggles went unseen. Their comfort was my solace, a way to find meaning in the shadows...

Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day had forever been a melancholic occasion for her. While her friends revelled in the blissful entanglements of their relationships, she found herself submerged in a sea of desolation. The day served as a painful reminder of her solitude, amplifying her feelings of loneliness and longing. But this year, to the complete astonishment of her friends, who would typically mock the day's futility, she had a date! The news of her newfound romantic connection left her friends in disbelief. They were accustomed to her being the perpetual single one, the one who would roll her eyes at the commercialized nature of the holiday. Yet, here she was, breaking free from her usual melancholy and embracing the special day. However, she chose to keep the identity of her companion a secret. Deep down, she feared that revealing it might somehow cast a spell of misfortune upon her newfound excitement. Perhaps she worried that the universe would conspire against her happiness ...
