The highest form of endowment that I will ever possess will be the fact that I am an INDIAN.
India, the land of cultural resonance shall always hold a unique place on the globe.
Being Indian makes me rise above religion, caste, creed, state, language and many such boundaries.
This rich nation, has made me richer in every aspect, more so culturally. Probably, if not for India, I would have never had an opportunity to learn/speak Kannada, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu or English and enjoy the variety from myriad sources of this great nation.
Politically there may be leftist and rightist ideologies. But common man needs neither of them. Clearly, people of India need a rationalist movement.

Looking Ahead
The biggest strength and weakness of current India is population. It is a strength because we have the largest youth population on this planet. It is a weakness since the opportunities are limited.
If we are to gain advantage over other nations and become a global power house, it’s about channeling youth energy.
India will overcome it’s shortcomings in the upcoming years, the Millennials will be operating for the next 10 years. Yes, the millennials are avert to many concepts, but they will be the key in shaping future India. One hurdle for millennials shall be capitalism versus socialism which millennials can pass through with time and experience.
Happy Republic Day everyone.

Wonderful blog, I love my India too.,
Not being political, in fact, isn’t large population our bane rather than the strength that we want to tell ourselves.
Please, accept and declare, big population is a problem. Incentivise single child.
Thanks Rakesh. We will have to chalk out new plans to control population as you have suggested. That said, in the present situation we have to utilize every possible resource and available energy to move towards betterment.
