Date: 24.01.2009 - Enter Sri Rama Sena, after nearly 70 years of Gandhiji’s statement.
So, who are these people anyway? Where do they hail from? And what is their agenda? Believe me, I had to google a lot, refer to every available dictionary, ask the most knowledgeable people around. Finally, not able to find an apt answer, I had to settle down to a definition (of a synonym) which came almost closer to what I was looking for;
So, who are these people anyway? Where do they hail from? And what is their agenda? Believe me, I had to google a lot, refer to every available dictionary, ask the most knowledgeable people around. Finally, not able to find an apt answer, I had to settle down to a definition (of a synonym) which came almost closer to what I was looking for;
Sri Drama Sena (noun, adj): A group of jobless creatures (in the literal sense) resembling man who are, usually, the most frustrated living beings ever to have taken birth on Earth. They only grow old and never ever grow up as the later is only optional for them, which they rarely or never choose. Human beings, especially woman, don’t give a damn to them because, obviously, they don’t deserve. They usually channelize their negative emotions through mindless physical violence as they are deprived of thinking capabilities, either by birth or by choice.
Perfect! The act and the definition match to the T. That is what I was looking for. Because that’s what they are doing. Sometimes (or should I say most of the times) I wonder in which India are we living; A nation which boasts of one of the most ancient civilizations exhibiting the most uncivilized acts of mental immaturity. A nation which breathes on the shrilling sacrifices and valued principles of Gandhiji & Co behaving like a desperate parasite, mistaking fellow country men for delicious prey. A nation which uses democracy for selfish motives rather than practicing it for mutual benefit and positive growth. A nation which thinks in a billion different ways!
The obvious set of questions which I have for these people is “obviously not obvious” to them. If the question is about moral policing, why don’t you beat the politicians up who has made corruption immortal? The police in khota khaki? And ubiquitous hooligans floating around “shooting on the shoulders” of the amazingly loop-holed law? Could it be because they are one of them (them and they used interchangeably!)? Or brothers in arms, hate and blood?
I was completely taken aback when I heard a couple of my acquaintances supporting the extreme principles of social inequality between the two sexes. Worse, they are from my generation; A generation which occasionally gives hope of true India, killing it the next moment. I honestly feel that such people are fighting the wrong battle. And a dangerous one too. So, my next question, really, is to you. When will you speak up? Are you waiting for a miracle to happen? Or are you waiting for one of drama sena to similarly abuse your family members physically and mentally? As cliché as it might sound but “don’t wait to dig a well until your house is on fire”.
Let us do our bit to build a new India; grand India; brand India. Practice equality and freedom in what ever little sense we can. Let us not sensationalize such coward (dis)organizations. Instead ignore them. They are no Big Brother. Support people who speak for the right. We need the Munna Bhais, the DJs, and the Kabir Khans. We need CHANGE. Of course, this time, for real. Chak De India!
