Hi all
Happy independence day!!
Jaihind
Ramya

hello


happy independence day...!


sixty years and great...!

Times of India headlined
sixty years and sexy(?)
wonder what they meant by it...!
previously it was
commentaries on radio
to school or parade ground
hoisting the flag..
today it is just a day or holiday

this sixtieth year is slightly different
with most of us
glued to tv with different programmes
some with newspapers
reading about sixty persons
who have helped shape india...!
great artists sang the indian tune...

and yet
we are familiar with rajni kanth, shah rukh khan and
and for a whole lot of people sivaji is sivaji ganesan
............................
for his shaven head and loin cloth
gandhi
a cap of all times and a rose
nehru
the bold look and a congress cap
subash chandra bose
the patriotic cap and piercing eyes
bhagat singh
azad
and a few other known faces
of tilak and gokale
in some papers......
the bharathiars forgotten
and among the familiar faces
(oops whatever is his name?)
and the not so familiar ones
and the lot who didnt get noticed
then and now...
it was a hard struggle for independence
at least this coming year
we shall try and learn something about
those lost faces
their struggle against freedom
and just as we know ...
oct 2nd is gandhi jayanthi
will we try and get the
birthdays of people who struggled
and say a short prayer
for having given this day
of independence?

akka thank you for adding colour to tricolour
