One of the things about which I
talked before also (http://unknownrahul.blogspot.in/2013/11/the-little-human-inside-me.html)
is related to treatment of animals. Over the last few days, I have read lot of
news articles related to ill-treatment of animals, the prominent ones which an
sure even you would have heard of are – killing of dolphins in Japan and
giraffe in Denmark. It irks me to read about all these atrocities committed on
animals. Don’t know how people gather strength to do this. How can you have a
festival to kill Dolphins and how can you kill a giraffe just because you want
to control their number in your zoo. Totally ridiculous and I seriously wish
that next life the people who did this end up on the other side.
The other thing that is
disturbing is the future of our country. I have been off late watching “The
News Hour” on Times Now and am seriously surprised to see comments made by
Congressmen and BJP leaders on that show. I don’t want to take a political side
– so let me rephrase it to all the politicians as so far I have not come across
even one intelligent person. The worst thing was to see the Derek O’brien (who
hosted quiz show when I was a kid and that point of time I used to think he is
the smartest person on the planet) defending Mamata Banerjee for anything and
everything. Common Mr Derek you have let so many people like me down who
followed you as kids.
I always said that the we will
get a chance to do something for the country after 15-20 years when someone
amongst us will be a leader. But last few days, I read quite of my friends
posts on FB related to politics, I was proved wrong. I saw people taking one
side (BJP or AAP – so far haven’t come across even one post defending Congress)
and ridiculing the other party. I They
are not ready to accept that either of the party have done something wrong.
They are behaving like members of the party and not ready to listen to anything
against it. This clearly shows that people are not thinking neutrally for the
nation – they have become blind supporters.
God bless the world and India.
