GET UP!!!!

Once again I am back. Sorry all for delay in updating my blog. I was busy because of my involvement into studies and work. Today, I am writing on a real story which was narrated to me by an old US based lady, who was in her 60s. She was truly obsessed with the culture, tradition of India irrespective of whatever she is going through because of some Indian officials. What impression we are giving to our guests?

She went to visa office for the renewal of her visa and what reply she got from the office that she have to go back to America and apply from there for a medical visa, than come back here. I mean, whats this? In the visa process of US, they dont have visa on medical grounds thats why they send their citizens on tourist visa only.

This lady went to the visa office 3-4 times and everytime she got either the same reply or as Indian government employees always do like go to this person than that person. When she tried to show her anger than one of the senior official said that if you want your work to be done than be polite. No matter how an public employee is replying to your query or whether he is working for you or not, but you have to be polite.

She was in need, so from that time onwards she always kept silent, polite and with calm nature, Sir please do this work. Finally, after 3-4 days, she met the third highest rank official but still the same answer, go back.

Finally, her patience bursted out in the form of her anger on the officials and than they said that we will do your work and you need not to go anywhere. Just give us all the proofs again that you are not well and undergoing treatment over here. She agreed to this request no matter that she have already given such documents 3 times.

What I want to ask to the government and to the bureaucrats and other officials, that on one side you giving advertisement on television that "Athithi Devo Bhavah". Respect them, as a lot of people are earning because of them. On another side, you are harassing the foreigners and that too on baseless grounds and reasons. Why? Why media is not focusing on such problems which are also a type of hurdle in the development of our country? When would we, the common man, think that our country is our home? We only have to take care of our home and give respect to not only to the outsiders but also to those who are our family members without any difference on the basis of their caste, sex, financial value, societal status. When we stop discrimination?

Its seriously high time friends. Please its my sincere request to all of you, please think about your country. Do something fruitfull for your own home, for your own nation. Show your power to disgusting and disturbing elements like Shiv Sena, MNS, LeT, disturbing neighbors, that no body have the right to break your unity, you all are equal. Stop fighting among themselves. Come out of you personal requirement and think about the nation.

If you still feel that you cant do anything than dont utter bad words against those who are into power, whether its government or officials. If you think they are not doing their work efficiently than raise this issue. Enter into the system and change it or atleast give a try. Be a media person and change the view of media, who are just commercialising news for the sake of profit. They are not at all interested in what kind of impression they are giving to the public about their own nation and politicians. Listen to media but use your own brain to judge what is right and what is wrong. A small initiative by each and every individual will one day definitely give us a better country, a better future.
GET UP!! GET UP!!
