*** Mission India-ism....
Bodhisatva
Dr. B.R. Ambedkar , father of Indian constitution said, “I am Indian first and
Indian last.” Due to sad demise of Dr Ambedkar on December 6, 1956, this
mission could not spread in India and anywhere.
Even it is very shameful thing for every Indian Government, spiritual
leaders, political leaders, Social activists as well as thinkers, who are not
sharing their honest contribution for spreading mission of India-ism or
nationalism. Indian political parties
are seemed to be busy for their caste, creed, and region and languages basis
politics. Their motto is to earn personal gain only and not the nation
development. These people speak more by mouth about nation feelings as well as
society development policy but by heart their mentality cum activities seems to
be selfish. Now it is seen that, Indian
politics run on caste spirit basis. Since the time we got independence we entered
in “Free India,” but there is no change at all in the Indian society except one
major change. i.e. replacing white
English man to black English man.”
Dr Ambedkar delivered his speech on the occasion of
presenting “Constitution of India” in the constituent Assembly on November 26,
1949, he said,” On the 26th of January 1950, India
would be a democratic country in the sense that India from that day would have
a government of the people, by the people and for the people. The same thought
comes to my mind. What would happen to her democratic Constitution? Will she be
able to maintain it or will she lose it again? This is the second thought that
comes to my mind and makes me as anxious as the first. …………. On the 26th of
January 1950, we are going to enter into a life of contradictions. In politics
we will have equality and in social and economic life we will have inequality.
In politics we will be recognizing the principle of one man one vote and one
vote one value. In our social and economic life, we shall, by reason of our
social and economic structure, continue to deny the principle of one man one
value. How long shall we continue to live this life of contradictions? ……… “Independence
is no doubt a matter of joy. But let us not forget that this independence has
thrown on us great responsibilities. By independence, we have lost the excuse
of blaming the British for anything going wrong. If hereafter things go wrong,
we will have nobody to blame except ourselves. There is great danger of things
going wrong. Times are fast changing. People including our own are being moved
by new ideologies. They are getting tired of Government by the people. They are
prepared to have Governments for the people and are indifferent whether it is
Government of the people and by the people. If we wish to preserve the
Constitution in which we have sought to enshrine the principle of Government of
the people, for the people and by the people, let us resolve not to be tardy in
the recognition of the evils that lie across our path and which induce people
to prefer Government for the people to Government by the people, nor to be weak
in our initiative to remove them. That is the only way to serve the country. I
know of no better.”
Every common man as well as Indians
thinking for their bread and butter or someone think for their luxurious life.
Nation development issue is not concerned with them or they don’t worry about
it. It is due to self centered quality, we are facing corruption, unemployment,
poverty, price rising like issues in India. For that Congress Raj as well as
other political parties is responsible for nation loss. We people are also responsible for our
un-development and nation loss because we follow these political parties and
their government blindly without evaluating their work.
Some
one may ask that what India-ism is! It is
very simple definition that “feelings of I am Indian first and Indian last is
India-ism.” Someone may say that “I love
India” is enough but it is not the substitute for India-ism. Love feeling and
nation spirit feeling both are different one.
Love issue is very narrow subject. But Nation spirit feelings are
related with development of the nation as well as its society. In another word
we can say that India-ism is Nationalism. There is no scope for Hindu
Nationalism, Buddhist Nationalism, Islam Nationalism, Christianity Nationalism,
State Nationalism, Language Nationalism, and Region Nationalism and so on.
Every man of the society has been given rights by the “Constitution of India”
to worship their gods and religion. But it is objective thought. The question
is, if the nation is not in existing, how our rights exist! It means our identity is
depending on the existence of nation. So our main religion is “Indian” and all
other religions are secondary. In other words we can say that this is
“India-ism or Nationalism.”
At
last, our mission “Nationalism or India-ism” is not an organization. Our
mission is to create feelings of India-ism. So we appeal to all Indians to join
with us or you are free to move this mission by your own groups. Here is no place for leadership. Our motto is
to build strong India. Our motto is to respect our “Indian Constitution.” We
must know the preamble of Indian constitution. We must hang the copy of
preamble of Indian constitution in every home of India. One more our issue is to
work for building the “Nation” and not the “Country.”
