As deserving as Gandhi himself was, I believe Nehru would have been a more appropriate choice for the title, 'father of the nation'.<br /><br />Honestly, I just stumbled upon your blog today and have been pouring over your posts. These are truly well thoughtout, well researched posts. I do wish you would tell us readers a little more about yourself. Who are you, Athenaeum? I assume you are a Tamil living in the USA. But are you a retired journalist? Or a middle-aged man/woman in an unrelated day job who is just able to research topics so thoroughly and write so beautifully? You seem to know so much. Please, reveal yourself. Who you are and where you come from will enhance our reading experience, not distract from it.<br /><br />Irrespective, thank you.MLakshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06967036289426773845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2383732783190307682.post-10067741915544602502014-11-15T23:18:26.831-05:002014-11-15T23:18:26.831-05:00Dear Sir
Off all the things one I am very much sur...Dear Sir<br />Off all the things one I am very much sure of, the past leadership failed to deliver a responsible next gen. It was the biggest and irreversible failure of this country. If constructing a toilet is utmost priority after 67 years of independence,where we are headed. This is not to undermine the campaign. But we live in campaigns. We are products of such mindset. <br /><br />I personally believe ours is still a very very young country. Everything done by our founders( freedom winners or first leaders) was beyond imagination. <br /><br />A country which got independent only to see a deadly communal holocaust followed by assassination of its strong leader by his own country men, was not a heavenly place to place ideals and better governance. Yet our leaders never yielded to the wild attraction of power and gracefully guided us towards a path.... a path of sustenance. We survived and continued. <br /><br />If the entire seeds of growth were laid in those years of Nehru and other leaders then we have to agree beyond 1964 the very leaders failed to create the most important requisite of administration--"continuance". Isn't it true that moral conscience of the citizens of this country started to drop from mid 60's till today? Isn't it true that country never saw development <br />that was real? Ranging from the twenty point program to today's swacha bharat aren't we a country of campaigns? <br /><br />The tragic failure of this country is we failed to create or groom leaders citizens and teachers. A man born in 70's is an MLA today somewhere.....do you believe he has not spent more than crores to become such? <br /><br />Yes we failed here. And why we should expect respect from a generation which is more inclined towards deterioration of self respect?rkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17008312214062015362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2383732783190307682.post-79337413964069159282014-11-14T01:46:34.666-05:002014-11-14T01:46:34.666-05:00என்னடா, இன்னும் எழுதலையேன்னு நெனச்சேன்...
