    BHAGAT SINGH

    BHAGAT SINGH

    U may have seen the Parliament sessions. Felt sad for the country, angry on the political system or ever wanted to tell the politicians about the people’s problems and make them realize few things about themselves and the society. Then what would u do normally. Circulate a mail, blog about an issue or hold a card in front of the media, distribute pamphlets explaining the issue and if more, u may go on a strike. 70 years ago, there was a youngster who threw a bomb in the Parliament just to make the politician wake up and His name is BHAGAT SINGH.

    What would have happen to Indian freedom struggle if Mahatma Gandhi settled down in London or South Africa? Many would say India would have got the independence two decades earlier or so under the leadership of “netaji”. He was our leader, big boss who dared to defend the country, build an army and showed the youth of the country that Indians were ready to kill or get killed for the sake of their motherland. He was the head of national congress but came out due to the ideological difference. The national congress at that time had this view that independence can be achieved by discussions and being good and agreeing with the empire. He builds an army, “the Indian National Army” and wanted to get the freedom by throwing out the British empire from the country. He did everything what he can but history was never fair to him as to some of the other leaders of that era. But every Indian knows what he did and are proud of him. And that is the reason, from kanyakumari to Kashmir, everyone says “JAI HIND”.

    Legends I Admire and Inspiried by

    M.S. SWAMINATHAN

    Many of you may not be familiar with the name, the less know what he did exactly to the human kind and especially to the poor countries. We may not be familiar with the hunger deaths or famine which killed and is killing millions of people in the world at regular intervals of time. Many Asians countries and African countries were living on one meal and were importing food grains and this was the major problem for the government at that period (today roads, electricity, petrol, terrorism, communalism, feminism and so on). Countries were depending on import food from rich nations who were exploiting the situation physically, financially and politically. During such times, a man from our Tamilnadu, M.S.Swaminathan, changed the lives of millions of people across the nations by Green Revolution. He brought seeds from other countries and cross breed them with the Indian seeds to get much more grain than the traditional harvest. And this became a revolution for the coming generations. Almost all the Hybrid seeds now we see are the results of that green revolution. He took the pains to develop the hybrid seeds which can grow on the different types of soil in India, its drastic climate conditions and the unpredictable rainfall. It was not the hybrid seed but the effort he put for convincing the bureaucracy and the political class of this country in this regard is considered as the major revolutionary. Today we are eating those seeds.
