On 2 February 1835, in his address to British Parliament, Lord Macaulay said about India as under:-
"I have traveled across the length and breadth of India and I have not seen one person who is a beggar, who is a thief. Such wealth I have seen in this country. Such high moral values, people of such caliber, that I do not think, we would ever conquer this country, unless we break the very backbone of this nation, which is her spiritual and cultural heritage, and, therefore, I propose that we replace her old and ancient education system, her culture, for if the Indians think that all that is foreign and English is good and greater than their own. They will lose their self esteem , their native culture, and they will become, what we want them, A Truly Dominated Nation".
Are we not in self destruction mode today?. What we are doing ? What our rulers are doing ? What all the four pillars of Indian Democracy are doing ?
Bitter Truth..... But... Just Think.......!!!
Power through Wealth and Wealth through Power. Divide & Rule. Dividing our nation and society on the lines of Religions, Castes, Regions, Languages, and Ideologies. Injecting hatred into the minds & hearts of our fellow Indians. Promoting Capitalism and Consumerism in the name of Development. With the help of Television and Advertisement Commercials. Trying to sell Unnecessary Dreams and Illusions. Confusing Common People to seek Happiness in Materialistic Comforts and Luxuries. Vulgar display of Wealth by Rich, Powerful and Famous forces General Public to target their lives towards same but wrong direction. Rich, Famous and Powerful being given Respect & Importance in Society, instead of Wise, Talented and Learned. . Paralyzing, Disabling and Making People Slave through Vote Politics of Reservation, Quota, Appeasement of certain Communities, and Free Schemes. Promoting Western Culture, Lifestyle, Foods, Clothing, and Festivals whether Country & People are ready to accept & adjust with it or not. Inclusive Growth is just a Slogan. Economic Gap among Elite Class, Middle Class and Lower Class is increasing with each passing day. Impacts and Ill Effects of blind Promotion & Acceptance of Western Culture are clearly visible in Nation, Economy, and Society in general. Intellectual, Ideological, and Cultural Gap is growing between Elite, Middle and Lower Classes of the same Nation. .
Hence all Conflicts and Clashes.
Are we moving in right direction ? Will we ever learn any lesson from history ? Don't you think that Words of Lord Macaulay are perfect lesson for us today even after 178 years ?
Bitter Truth But.... Just Think.....!!!
