An Independence Day...





Resides in the arms of culture, with religion making it colourful on every edge of the fence. The many places you go, the many faces you see, with innocence in welcome, variety conceals with the difficulty in the language. Even being a rainbow of culture, religion and languages every place feels like home. Where, sports and games are not few persons investment or interest, rather whole nation involves along with the God. 
Standing tall, stretched long for justice, to clean the impurity of truthiness, we stand reputed. Somewhere below those belts, under those tables, we fall corrupted. 
Feminism was never a point to discuss since our God taught us what a female resist within her. The Sad part is where she is called Laxmi, on another hand she is a piece of flesh for some He's, who sometimes kill them nameless or somewhere their name is hidden under the melted wax. Despite being all happening within, how far we may fall divided when necessary we also are united. 
Unknown with the name, unaware with religion and relation, there are some who shed blood for us and sometimes even die.To see our loved ones smile they make their family cry. So that we could meet our families every day, they don't see theirs for months and years. No matter what the season is, what the weather is, they stand hard for them, for their companion and for us. To make this day celebrate there were many who left this nation, unknown with fact scribbled on those pages. They died before they could see what they have fought for. 
I wonder what they have thought of looking at today's so-called independent nation. That they died for a nation which we can't even keep clean. A nation which they announced as their mother, where mothers and sisters are not safe, where they breathe the smoke of their own burning flesh, acid is served as a drink and the bad words and names are what they eat from society every day.

A Memory - Yadgiri...

Blue at the top and the green around the bottom, meet together at the end of the long naked road. Unknown of the distance and unaware of the destination. The fields teased us for such a wideness could be found in the city. The roads were hard to be figured out. Every face was a stranger and use of intelligence could lead into a danger. The wheel which whirls on the static track has rolled to the north but never to the other end of the country. The bottom of the country has always had a part in my heart. From the eyes snatching nature, to the beauty in the people. And an urge of travel which made us crawl where the heart says.   Somewhere deep inside being in our country, we felt lost. But then we found it all to be scripted, what made us confused and scratch our head was the text and the language the people spoke encrypted.  Unplanned not trip but a journey from the heart of one state to another. The situation which we targeted to was the place known by a moun...

A Line Separating: Wagah Border

India shares its border with seven nations, of which one I stepped. The walk was a kilometre, on the straight, stretched, Grand Trunk Road. The rows divided us by gender, with a formal security check. The deeper I walked on that road the more secure it felt by looking at those super steel iron mans cast all around.  The surrounding changed the mood and the taste. Few meters away was the end point of my country but decades ago something initiated there. There were the people sitting on the other side of the gate with a different identity, different colour of religion on their flag.  What surprised me is the consistency of love, passion and energy for past fifty-nine years on every evening. They never took that level down there energy is the audience which has still kept the ceremony alive.  It was strange but true, that for the first time I wished I was of the opposite sex, so even I would have run hard holding the tricolour and danced gracefully on those n...
