Continous

Back!!!!!!!!!!and sad!! in the national newspaper the headlines were of our brave CRPF men being ambushed in the unpredictable terrain of Chattisgarh, 73(?) lives lost, 73 families lose their earning member, 73 X infinite dreams are shattered, disillusioned, lose path. In the land of Buddha, Gandhi and other luminaries we lose our identity as a restrained and understanding nation but isn't that a eyewash, this is the land where brother fought brother( Mahabharata got written because of that), we always had people from outside the known boundaries of India( Hindustan) ruling us, and we still go by divide and rule.......but why cannot we learn from history????or even from recent past?? coming from a forces background I grew up under the shadow of fear of losing a dearest one( father was head of numerous anti terrorist departments) always the fear of unknown, so many people have sacrificed their lives for the sanctity of the nation but to what end??? Will somebody of us raise the voice??? If an American is killed, kidnapped, brutalized anywhere in the world, Uncle Sam would use all their might to mete out retribution, cannot we as Indians ask our government do the same across the world, be reckoned as a country to be counted on and not as a soft state?

More to come........
