Proud To Be An Indian : It is people who matter

I remember when ahmedabad was hit by major earthquake and my building had got demolished by brutal force of nature.  All people living in my building were humbled by nature. Lives were lost , property was demolished. Help started pouring in from all quarters. People helped with time , even with money. Rich , poor , hindu , sikhs , muslims ,christians , jains , all contributed . Not just for us but for all effected in ahmedabad and in kutch.

Another example of people’s generosity and humanity is example of gayatri devi. A freedom fighter fighting for her rights. As soon as CNN-IBN showed her plight , not just government but aam aadmi , NGOs and Big B stepped in to help her out. It was not charity but giving the freedom fighter back as gesture to what she did for country. No amount , no money can evern compensate that but atleast gayatri devi can live in peace in country which she dreamt and worked for.

Another example is of abhishek kumar. He cracked IIT living in poverty. He didn’t even have electricity at his home. His hard work took him through the entrance but he hit dead end when paying fees came into scene. NDTV showed his issue and help came from various quarters.

Indians are sick and tired of corrupted system caste division and religious issues but time and again Indians have proved that they stand with people during their hour of problems. Time and again ordinary people have joined hands for a casue. Be it be gayatri devi or abhishek kumar or getting justice for jessica lal or ruchika. Time and again people have made all partriot Indians proud of being Indian.
