Happy Independence Day!

Its our 61st Independence day. What a day to rejoice – the day when our country was freed from the clutches of the British rule. Well, a huge struggle to get freedom is commendable! But, our country faces more problems even to this day. Inflation, strikes, agitations, corruption and what not! These problems seem to have no end.

In the sports end, India lost to Sri Lanka the test series and looking forward to the ODI series! Next comes the superb Olympic gold by Abhinav Bindra! That is a sort of the gift the nation and its people for the independence day. Wow! And what’s more. India will play football for the first time in the Asia cup after 1984. Isn’t it an indication that true talent always shines when it has the total dedication of the related people!

Inflation seems to be a never ending woe. It’s soaring to heights where it’s getting difficult to tame it. And the J & K unrest is still continuing! This forms a black mark on the face of the I-day celebrations! We’ve some serious issues to be tackled!

On this occasion, let’s hope that our country soon gets out of these huge problems and go on the path of growth and development. I wish all my fellow countrymen a very happy INDEPENDENCE DAY. JAI HIND & PROUD TO BE AN INDIAN ALWAYS! :)
