Be proud that you are an Indian


Larry Collins and Dominique Lapierre in their famous book Freedom at Midnight wrote about that one man unarmed army of Mahatma who could avert a catastrophic Hindu - Muslim riot in Bengal while one hundred thousand strong British Army couldn’t prevent that happening in Punjab in 1947.

After 64 years the unarmed army of common people of India led by a septuagenarian Gandhian named Anna Hazare could bring down a Govt which did not feel or pretended not to feel the pulse of its people to its knees in four days without shedding a single drop of blood. It is unbelievable that the people of India, especially the exuberant youth, could wage its war against corruption with so much restraint and peace strictly adhering to ‘Ahimsa’ as advised by Anna! Be proud that you are also one among them!
