Aazadi in India

It was a delight to watch Kanhaiya last night speaking at Admin Block in JNU about freedom in India (not from India ).

The ideological positioning and ,some may call, Utopian world to demand freedom from  from poverty, illiteracy, corruption, feudalism, communalism and access to better education system and health care services are paths to make beautiful India which was dreamed by freedom fighters during the freedom struggle.

There may be differences of opinion but we must not pronounce judgement before the judgment by the honorable court. 

When Rule of Law and logic take back seat, then fringe elements of every section of the society try to occupy the driving seat, take the Constitution in their own hands and start passing judgment based on their narrow and parochial thinking. When everyone except the court start passing judgment and executing them also, then this is the sign of beginning of those rules which destroyed many countries and they are still not learning it. 

We must stand by Rule of Law, Stand by Constitution of India and allow the court to decide on the merit of the case. 

Ever second child in India is malnourished and we do not have plan to address this issue. If we do not recognize this menace, then 30 to 35 years down the line (when these children become adult) our nation will have highest number of youth but with lowest rate of production or contributing to socio- economic activities of the country. No one is talking about children in the age group of 0-6 years, the most critical age for development of human body- physical, emotional and mental.  These children should have fundamental rights for nutritional support, pre-schooling and access to health care services specailly pediatricians.
