India Watch - Read it and Ignore.

There are two distinct worlds out there.

One India which is growing and one which seems to be stuck somewhere in the past.

Recently a conversation with a highly educated person living in a metro made me aware of the fact that hypocrisy is the core on which we have build this nation.


We have grown.

Internet with mobile is making technology reach to the interiors. A teenager from Tirrutani is as much equipped to use an app as one in Thane. This is equality. This is a par ground.



We are more educated. We have more access to jobs, goods, loans than ever before.

We have diverse media.

We have youth. Lots of it and hence a lot of potential.



We are struck. 

Never before have we been so direction less. We dont have the trust in our leaders and most of us dont even know our leaders. We as a nation are running without a goal or that is what it seems.

We are divided - in regions, beliefs, ... and many more.

Now we are a globalized country and we are trying to adopt the best from the west and India.

We (youngsters) crave for instant results, gratifications but this task of building a nation is complex and perhaps a very long term process.

I am not saying every Indian should have a blue print of the building of the nation but every Indian should know what sort of building is being built in the first place.


The youth we have is wasted as without direction and a goal, we run our own lives and we build our own fortunes as per our luck talent and potential.

We are at cross roads now. Its for us to choose what we want. Its for us to unite and plan for the blueprint.
