I would be continuing with updating my blog with detailed solution of previous UGC NET PAPERS. Apart from that, I am also going to be penning down my thoughts which i have always wanted to share it with the world. Experiences which i have undergone and lessons i have learnt and generally some musings on life. Hope you all enjoy it and learn and grow from it just like me. I hope and pray that the updates are more regular now.

CHANGE IS THE KEY

CHANGE IS THE KEY


Everyone wants their country to be the best. Being an Indian i also want the same. I want the best things to happen in our country. I want everyone of us to be proud of who we are, for what we stand for. But the recent news of rapes and violence against women has tarnished the image of India worldwide. The capital of our country not safe to women at all does not sound good for the image of the country.

I retrospect a lot about the recent developments happening in our country and how everyone of are restless and looking forward to a corrupt free nation. The entire apathy of the nation is blamed on the politicians. They are made wholly responsible for what is happening in our country wrong. But is it the right approach?.

Roughly India has a population of 1 billion. There are around 500 odd representatives in the parliament for this entire population. Although their influence on the overall running of the governance cannot be completely undermined, you can also not blame them only for all the negative things happening around you. The time has come for each and every citizen to take up responsibility for what is happening around them and not blame only the politicians. John F. Kennedy in his world famous speech asked the americans, "Do not ask what the country has done for you, ask what you have done for the country". The timing is no better right to implement it in our country. I think every one of us need to ask what we have done for the country and the apathy surrounding us.

We need to think on what are the positive changes which one can bring in our society. If every individual changes for the better, the entire country changes. If every person thinks positively and hopes for a better tomorrow it is achievable. Actually India bashing is very fashionable among indians. "There is no future for our country", "Politicians have swindled money and left us with nothing..", "It is better to migrate to a developed nation instead of living in our country"…these are some of the statements which you will hear when we hear talk about the state of our country. No doubt things are a bit gloomy. But we need to look at how we, each one can make things better for others and ourselves too in the same order.

It could be as small a step as following traffic rules and not littering in public. But every single act of improvement on our part is going to get reflected in the society. Teach our kids to be honest and instill good values in them. Let each and everyone of us become the citizen of a modern India, a India which everyone want to live in. What is the behavior you would expect from the people of such a country, try to bring it in yourself.

Be proud of your heritage, history, and our unity in diversity. Learn to respect others. Do not judge others.

Society is just a reflection of the collective thoughts of the individuals. A nation reflects the hopes,beliefs and thoughts of the society. Be the change you want to see in others, in the society and the nation. If every single individual changes for the better, society changes for the better and the nation also would reflect it. So stop blaming politicians and start becoming the champion of change. Make an India where no one would want to migrate from.JAI HIND.
