Things to do on Independence Day 2020

There is a whole lot of things that we can do on Independence Day & celebrate the day very gloriously. It is a national holiday which is celebrated by every Indian to remember our freedom from the shackles of the British rule on 15 August 1947. This year we Indians will celebrate the 74th year of independence. First of all, we must pay homage to our country by showing gratitude to those brave freedom fighters who gave their lives to in order to protect their country. And also to those soldiers & people of law enforcement who are putting their lives on the line to protect the country and it's countrymen.

Now having said that, now on a lighter note let us explore a few things with which we can plan on how to celebrate the special day by doing something that would make our day beautiful.

Sing National Anthem

We rarely sing national anthem ever as for general people who are not connected to educational institutes rarely get a scope to sing it. Today you can stand up & sing the national anthem. You have every reason to do so.

Fly kites

Youths & kids alike have a chance to enjoy this day by flying kites & capture the day's most participated event in majority parts of India.

Read patriotic books

You can also catch-up with patriotic books & know something about history.


Watch patriotic movies

If you want to skip reading a patriotic book, you can also catch-up with history by watching patriotic movies & know something about important historic figures.

Stay colour-coordinated

You can wear colourful dresses & bring a multi-coloured fashion statement along with patriotism.

Rakshabandhan 2020 Amidst Pandemic

-Soumadeep Chatterjee

A sister is a blessing for a brother

Rakhsha Bandhan is an event celebrated in India, where all sisters tie Rakhis on their brother's hand as a symbol of protection from harm. It is influenced by Hindu tradition & widely celebrated by Indians. It is generally held on a full moon day (Purnima). The brother in return gifts the sister as a thanks in return.

A bond of brother & sister is pure & worth preserving

It had been hard due to the pandemic to connect with family members properly due to distance, absence of proper transportation. Other than the facts of social distancing, the distance which has got created between hearts is also difficult to bear.

"Mayer's (1960: 219) observation for central India would not be inaccurate for most communities in the subcontinent:

A man's tie with his sister is accounted very close. The two have grown up together, at an age when there is no distinction made between the sexes. And later, when the sister marries, the brother is seen as her main protector, for when her father has died to whom else can she turn if there is trouble in her conjugal household.

The parental home, and after the parents' death the brother's home, often offers the only possibility of temporary or longer-term support in case of divorce, desertion, and even widowhood, especially for a woman without adult sons. Her dependence on this support is directly related to economic and social vulnerability."^[3]

Mere Sapne (Hindi Poem)

- Anuradha Agarwal

मेरे सपने

आंखें बन्द कर के मैंने देखे थे कुछ सुनहेरे सपने,

जो थे बस मेरे ही अपने,

पूरा करने उनको मै चल पड़ी,

पता नही रास्ते  में कब किससे कैसे लड़ी,

कभि हिम्मत टूटी,

कभि राहे रूठी,

पर मै फिर भी चली।

एक बार लगा की अब सब खत्म।

वापस ले लू मै अपने कदम।।

पर फिर बचपन की वह बात

जिसको सोच कर सोई नहीं थी मै कई रात -

बड़ी होकर मै यह बनूंगी।

सारी दुनिया मै अपना नाम करूंगी।

याद आई,

साथ अपने नया सवेरा लाई।

फिर से वह सपने वापस आए,

संग अपने कई नए रंग लाए।

अब मैंने ना मुड़ के पीछे देखा,

मिटा दी सारी मन की खीची हुई रेखा।

पूरा करने फिर से उनको चल पड़ी,

इस बार जीती मै क्योंकि खुद से ही लड़ी,

जो रोक रही थी मुझको धुंड ली वो कड़ी,

अब मै फिर एक नए जीवन मै उड़ने को चली।

- अनुराधा अग्रवाल

Sangharsh (Hindi Poem)

-Anuradha Agarwal

संघर्ष

जीवन का ज्ञान है

जनाब, कीमती हर एक जान है।

देखी थी मैंने आंखों से कुछ सच्चाई

जाने किसकी थी वो परछाईं।।

खाने को नहीं थी उनके पास रोटी

शायद किस्मत ही थी उनकी खोटी।

नींद थी आंखों में मगर सोने की जगह नहीं,

ख्वाब थे आंखों में मगर बोने की जगह नहीं

भीड़ से बचने के लिए कि एक कौशिश सही,

ढूंढने निकले थे अपनी मंजिल

जाने किस मोड़ पर जाएं मिल।

सपना था एक हसीन जिवन का

जाने कब खिलेगा फूल उसमें सृजन का ?

यही सोच कर .....

चले कुछ दूर और वो

तकलीफ है बस और दो।

पर था किस्मत को कुछ और ही मंजूर

क्योंकि रास्ते होते नहीं है आसान हुजूर

पर कुछ तो था उसके हाथो में जरुर

क्यूंकि उन्हीं की वजह से था जाने कितनों का गुरुर ।।

जिसने बनाई सबके लिए छत 

था आज उसी का बूरा वक्त,

यकिनन गया था वह बहुत थक

करने लगा अब वह खुदी पर सक

उसने भी ना मानी हार

लड़ने के लिए हो गया वह फिर तैयार

संघर्ष रखा जीने का अब भी बरकरार

पर उसे नहीं पता था मचा है हर तरफ हाहाकार

कुछ तो  इनकी भी सुनिए   सरकार

कहीं ज़िन्दगी से अब ये जाए हार

नहीं है इनकी जाने बेकार

पेट नहीं भरता है धर्म से

झुका लिजीए आंखे अपनी शर्म से

सोचते हैं वह भी जाने कैसे थे हमारे कर्म 

आखिर इस घाव का क्या है भी कोई मरहम

ऐसा जीवन जी कर तो देखिए

जनाब कुछ तो इनसे भी सिखिए 

गंदे नहीं होते हैं कोई भी धंधे

गलत होते हैं बस उनको करने वाले कुछ बंदे

काम करते हैं वो पर पढ़ते हैं उन्ही को डंडे

हार कर वह भी पढ़ जाते हैं ठंडे

भूल जाते हैं क्यू कुछ लोग 

सबका यहां अपना स्वभिमान है

जनाब किमती हर एक जान है

जिंदगी के अफसाने कभी कम ना होंगे

कभी आप भी ना होंगे कभी हम भी नहीं होंगे।

-अनुराधा अग्रवाल।

A Treasure Not Measured By....Us

- Anuradha Agarwal

A Treasure not Measured by....us

The journey called Life

Have some spice

Some said you are good for nothing

Some said you can do everything

What matter is the perception

You just need your own imagination

To follow your passion

Make your own fashion

Let others conspire

But You be inspire

Go on and join the dots

To get the right knot

Never let anyone feel you down

Destiny is there to renown.....

Your future 

Say it loud

That you are proud

To follow your dreams

And enjoy the creme

Reach the highs

And touch the sky

- Anuradha Agarwal

International Friendship Day 2020 in India

"To Readers,
I wish everyone, Happy Friendship Day 2020 & I wish all my friends that too, without whom I would not be who I am today.

Soumadeep Chatterjee"

Friendship day is celebrated all over the world by everyone, all the school buddies wish their friends & provide each other with a friendship band.

We all miss our days when we used to spend quality time with friends

Friendship is a very beautiful relationship that almost every human being has felt. A person is a friend if he stays in times of need.

Some of our best memories are created with friends

The term friendship is not limited. Your parents, brother, life partner, relative, literally anyone can be your best friend. So please don't limit your throughts. Enjoy this special bond with everyone. Keep friends who are worthy. Go an extra mile for them and who knows you might get a lifetime membership of that person in your life.

Friends are the best part of our lives with whom we share our lives

I hope all of you will be there with your friends and make them family. Because that is the best thing you can do to a friend. Give them so much love & make space for them in your heart, so that the friend turns into family.

Friends are the ones who stays with you no matter what

This wonderful day is celebrated by Indians on the first Sunday of August. According to me, it is the best day as majority of people have Sunday as a off day. We always have underrated this day. But it is a day that we must all try to be together with our friends. We must stop for a moment on this day. Look back & rejoice the moment with our friends.

Friendship is not limited to humans only, as friendship with pets are more intimate than one can explain

Tele Companies helps State to Track Suspected Cases

DoT is tracking cell positions to understand whether an user is going outside or inside the red zone & thus helping the government fight the COVID19.

But many people are questioning that whether this tracking will invade their privacy after the Coronavirus is over.

Wil the govt. from now on use such kind of tracking techniques to keep an eye over the citizens?

This technique of tracking is really useful & helps to save a lot of time. And it is extremely effective to track where the Coronavirus patient might have gone amidst this pandemonium.

India takes a loan of $1.5 Billion to Fight Coronavirus

The Indian Govt. has taken a loan of $1.5 billion to help themselves fight COVID19.

The loan has been taken from the Asian Development bank on Tuesday, April 28, 2020. This loan will support small businessses whose existence are endangered. And without the help from the government their existence may perish.

No one knows how long the pandemic will keep hitting our economy. The Coronavirus treatment is giving birth to another suffering, known as economic breakdown and unemployment.

Rise in Temperature May Mitigate Spread of Coronavirus

The National Environmental Engineering Research Institute (NEERI), Nagpur has found a very strong correlation between temperature rise and spreading of Coronavirus.

This can be a turning point for the fight against Coronavirus because India is a hot and humid country. If somehow the high temperature really reduces COVID19 spread, it would help the lockdown to end quickly and our economy may open soon enough.

India starts investigating the origin of COVID19

The virus which started to spread from China, named the COVID-19 has claimed a lot of lives. It is still unknown that exactly from where this virus has originated.

India has started investigating into this matter in the top secure organization so that they can find out about the origin of this deadly virus.

It is still taking lives. The world is, as of today, not yet free from Coronavirus.

Current Indian Economy

The Indian Economy is in a challenging situation. The COVID19 Pandemic has worsened the economic slowdown.

Indian Economy is slowing down at an alarming rate

People are losing their jobs, firms are unable to pay their employees.

Small companies have started to do pay cut and are adhering to several cost cutting strategies.

The govt. is trying to revive the economy. But according to experts, even at the best it will take 8-10 months for the revival if the economy is opened now.
