Terror attacks in Pathankot, India

The analysis can be made in numerous terms. Firstly by putting ourself in the shoes of the soldiers , secondly by putting yourself in the place of residents nearby and third from the point of view of administrators of the country. These three categories of people think very different from each other. Let us examine the role of each group of these people.

First category of people are the real heroes, who have actually faced this, second class of people have watched this happening with terror filled eyes, praying god to spare them from becoming the victims and the third has the responsibility of making foreign policy which decides the whole new fate of the relations with our long time foe Pakistan, which is actually running on the right track now. All thanks to “Modi’s Foreign Policy” as it is termed.

The terrorists, disguised as Army men entered the Pathankot airport base, aiming to destroy the aircraft carriers and choppers. They made a call to Pakistan before commencing their operation .One terrorist even called his mother seeking blessing and informing of the mission. Our soldiers lost lives while fighting these monsters. Among our heroes, were Lt Col Niranjan, an officer of the Madras Sappers, the officer commanding the bomb disposal squad of the National Security Guardand Commonwealth shooting medalist Subedar Fateh Singh of the Dogra Regiment who was now with the Defence Security Corps. This has taken place after Mr Modi paid a surprise visit to Pakistan on it’s PM’s birthday. This attack is a threat to the ongoing peace talks between India and Pakistan which for the first time has military backing and some good result is being expected out of it.

The mother would be cursing herself for giving birth to such a monster !! On the other hand mothers of the soldiers are proud to have sons who fight everyday for their motherland. Our soldiers have lost life not only in Pathankot but also everyday on the borders protecting us day and night . So, let us today not become selfish and think only for ourselves but also do our bit to uplift India in any small way we can by guiding the youth on the right track. This will make us the citizens who are worth fighting for!!!

The Hindus : Descendants of Sanatan Dharma Part 1

The Sanatana dharma traces its existance back to some 10 thousands years back. There is an old saying that when people in the west were busy in making utensils out of human bones the people in India were writing Vedas. We have not only invented the number system but been using it efficiently for astronomy. The word Hindu which has been for long seen as a religious identity of a group of people is in actually the geographical identity of the people living side the great Himalayas and the Indu sagar(ocean). So if we follow that up then every person living in India be him a christian or Muslim or follower of any other religion is actually a Hindu. But with time the word "Hindu" had became the identity of the followers of "Sanatan Dharma". "Sanatana" is a Sanskrit word that denotes that which is Anadi (beginningless), Anantha (endless) and does not cease to be, that which is eternal and everlasting. Dharma is from dhri, meaning to hold together, ...

China and India both started the journey at same time but today the GDP of China is about 5 times that of its Indian counterpart. Over the last two decades the world has witnessed a tremendous growth of China surpassing the two digit growth mark only to slow down for past few years. India currently the fastest growing economy of the world is growing at a steady rate of near to 7.0 per year but still not able to catch up the double digit mark as China did.
