The Indian Triumph and shame on you Mumbai Police!!!

Yippee!!!So a good week altogether for my India, yes we have successfully accomplished(as of now) the Chandrayaan-I mission with pride. I didn't expect this to take place so early, i swear, because India is known to be slow but this mission has proved it wrong. The sincere and dedicated work of over a 1000 scientists has come true, Indian brains have proved yet again that they are among the best, they(these scientists) are the true patriots who have dedicated their heart and soul for this nation, am sure they would have got better offers from the various space stations but they have stayed back to make this nation proud and we are definitely proud of you gentlemen.

Within a week or so the Chandrayaan will reach the moons orbit, it is not just an Indian mission, it is carrying 11 payloads out of which 6 are from the US, Europe and Bulgaria. So we have joined the elite club of countries which have been successful in sending an unmanned rocket to them moon following the Russians(way back in 1959), the Americans, Japan and China(both in 2007). But India's mission is more special than any of these countries , ours is the cheapest of all. We have spent only around $78.5 million where as even China spent $187 million and Japan spent $480 million. Indians are way better to Chinese this time(in monetary terms). I am looking forward to the moment when my Indian flag would be hoisted in the moon.

Now let us look forward to the launch of Chandrayaan-II which would be capable of landing a
rover on the moon which would be followed by a mission to the moon with an astronaut on board and by 2020 we will have a manned mission to the moon. Hope we work faster and accomplish these tasks before schedule successfully.

Now the Indian triumph over the mighty Aussies, good, finally Indians managed to dominate. It is a great news as a cricket fan in India but i am not happy about the way the spectators and fans praising the team(praises are good but everything has a limit is it not?). They claim this to be the end of the Aussie dominance and the wake of an Indian reign in the cricketing world. The players are happy to see the the fans showering their appreciation on them, the new generation of Indian players haven't seen the other face of their mighty fan club, I wonder if they still remember the plight of the families of the cricketers during the world cup-07 when the furious fans were busy protesting against them.

This is the true face of the Indian cricket fan, they have no bounds to their emotional content. The consider you as God when you play well and they dump you and their fury has no bounds as well when you fail to meet their expectation. Now the fans have started expecting more from the team and when this team fails to meet their demands the next time, i wonder what would be in stake for the players?? Watch out guys, you are always under immense pressure but one good thing is that, it used to be one guy named Sachin who used to take all the pressure for himself few years back, but now the entire team has started to share it. Keep winning team India, you are not under safe custody!!!

Finally, what is happening in Maharashtra?? Do they understand that they are living in a country named India. It is a pain to know that people are being categorized on the basis of their place of origin. The Shiv Sena and the must criticized MNS are the main reason for this violence and agitation against the north Indians working in Mumbai and Maharashtra. Its sickening to see such things happening in a country where there are more than a billion people belonging to different religions. And the funniest part is the preposterous remark of the Shiv Sena leader Mr. Raj Thackeray publicly demanding the Mumbai police to arrest him and asking them to face the consequences his arrest would reflect. It is such a shameful incident to be taking place. It is sad to see people like him escaping the law and order and his followers audaciously damaging the public properties and attacking the innocent people. 

What is the state government doing there, they are criticizing the BJP for having motivated Shiv Sena and the BJP are in turn criticizing the Congress for having not taken any action against these agitators. These politicians never really understand what democracy is all about and during such violence instead of working together for taking severe action against these people they are busy criticizing each other. Shameful. At the other end when the scientists are making this country proud these politicians are always letting us down. The biggest hindrance in India for any development is this unruly behaviour of these politicians and that is the greatest setback for this nation. I hope we get a new breed of young and enthusiastic politicians who are capable enough to run this government pretty early.

JAI HIND!!!
