Dear Nation,
I am proud of our culture, I am proud of our diversity as a nation in every sphere, I am proud of our unity against the odds.
But I am ashamed of ourselves, ashamed of the petty rows we have over language, ashamed of the lack of brotherhood, ashamed of the bridges that fall down marking the onset of monsoon, ashamed of the pot-holed delapidated roads and ashamed of thinking about self before you.
Yeah.. Happy Independence day ! ..Independence from British, but still depending on the many mental barriers we have collectively as Indians.
