गरज बरस प्यासी धरती पर, फिर पानी दे मौला,
चिड़ियों को दाने, बच्चों को गुरधानी दे मौला।

तेरे होते कोई किसीके जान का दुश्मन क्यों हो?
जीने वालों को मरने की आसानी दे मौला।

A short message on the 78th Independence Day of India

It seems like the whole world is going through a phase of severe unrest. We know a lot about the Russia-Ukraine war and the Middle East crises. Our neighbor, Bangladesh, is also in a heated unrest due to political reasons. The ghastly mentality shown by perpetrators towards Hindus only proves one thing: Bangladeshi Muslims are intolerant to an extreme point.

Only God knows when these crises will come to an end.

The latest r**e and murder of a doctor in India has become a burning issue. Safety and security of doctors is earnestly necessary but even the selection procedure of doctors, the NEET Examination has surpassed all limits of corruption. If the forerunners of a nation are not selected based on merit, it is certain the future will be dark even if India progresses as a growing economy.

The world’s geopolitical equation is also changing fast and we must realize that we need transparency and unity in the nation if we have to survive as a balanced and well-growing economy.

Biases and corruption are the barriers that must be removed to attain a brighter future. Forever and for the entire nation.

I don't know whether you have noticed it, but great personalities are also often good-looking. The latest example is Manu Bhaker, but examples exist in other domains too.

In fact, from Bollywood and Hollywood and pop industry to science, to economics, to literature, to politics and economics, great achievers are often attractive.

The real fact is the link is actually reversed, when a person achieves something great, our minds start to perceive them as beautiful. If you want to understand it better, take the case of Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar. If he were not a successful batter, people would hardly have perceived him as attractive.

Let me know if this is true or not in the comments.

Hats off to the Election Commission of India. Managing a selection process involving 140 crores of people where the margin of error is near zero is not only a heavily burdensome task but also a matter of supreme accuracy. The election commission does it perfectly.

BTW, it feels like a festival during elections here in India, the most populous country in the world.

পয়সা The Best

মিছে মরি সাথী খুঁজে,
থাকি ভালো একা নিজে
কোনও দায় ভার নেই,

তাই বলি ভাই বন্ধু
হইও না যেন অন্ধ
হবে সব ভালো পয়সা থাকলেই।

আসলে মানুষ জীবন কি
জানে না যে কেও
সব্বাই শুধু একা,

সাথে থাকার লাভ
শুধু এক পলকের আনন্দ
কম সিধা আর বেশী বেকা।

তাই একটু ভেবে দেখো
হোঁশ বোধ হারিও না
নাও দায়ীত্ব চিন্তা করে,

পরে ভেবে লাভ নেই
আগেই বুঝে নেওয়া ভালো
পয়সা কামাও দুশ্চিন্তা ছেরে।

How public donations can help in India's progress.

This post is mostly applicable to India, but countries with situations similar to India can benefit from the idea too.

India has been through unparalleled growth in the last one and a half decades. This is especially applicable to the construction of roadways. The village roads which were not concreted have become concreted in almost all parts of the country. This is a great sign of progress for the country.

The current government has more plans if it comes to power again. For example, Road and Transport Minister Nitin Gadkari has revealed that 36 new expressways will be built in the coming five years if the current government ruled by BJP comes to power again (which is a foreseeable positive prediction).

However, this progress has yet to reach every nook and corner of the country because India is a large nation and the condition of the roads was palpably degraded before BJP came to power. So, it will take quite some time to see that even the remotest villages in India, especially in states where the BJP does not have a ruling majority, have been connected via concrete roads. So, what can be done in such circumstances given that roads are the lifeline of all villages and cities?

The solution lies in the hands of the public. If the condition of the roads in a certain place is not good enough, the public should take up the project to build these roads by collecting donations from each resident and capable citizen of that place. This may seem to be a bad idea but it has the potential to change the face of road infrastructure in places where the government is unable to provide enough funds to build concrete roads.

For example, I was in Kolkata for three years and I have seen some roads that fell under the Panchayat ruling still to be concreted. The government must have been unable to provide enough funds to the Panchayats to build concrete roads, but they laid bare without concrete amid the city.

On the other hand, I have seen that Durga Pujo (worshipping of the deity Durga) near those roads had a budget of crores of rupees. Of course, the art, craftsmanship, and fanfare Pujo brought to the lives of the people living there were important, but even a portion of the total funds of the Durga Pujo, if used for building the roads, could bring a holistic change to the environment of the roads and lives of the people residing nearby.

In other places, donations could be derived from various other activities. The point to be noted here is that Indian people are used to donations. So, if a portion of the donation is used for the welfare of the public who provide it, it could be a game-changing formula for infrastructure-building success.

However, it must also be made sure that the money collected does not go to the hands of the corrupt which is also quite common in India. But, as in the case of the example given above, if a portion of the Durga Pujo budget is spent on the improvement of infrastructure, what else could be a greater feat than that?

This idea applies to all other areas of interest of the citizens. For example, the beautification of cities and the development of roads to the best possible level in villages where government help cannot reach are the options where the public can change their fate without waiting for the government to come and help them.

However, it must be understood without saying that forceful collection of donations must be avoided. Everyone may not be rich enough to donate money because although India is the fifth largest economy in the world, its average per capita income is quite low.

The biggest mistake human minds make is to stereotype people. It's disheartening to see people have steadfast viewpoints about a certain group or community of people. One should never stereotype people even if they encounter the same types of human beings from a place, a community, a religion, or any other discernible feature again and again many times.

I always keep my mind open for each new person. Even if I find 90 percent from a certain demography the same in some common characteristics, I know that there will be at least 10 persons who are different. And that is the least count.

This point of view is more applicable to negative judgments than the positive ones. When people stereotype others for some bad or unjust characteristics, they act like people blindfolded. Blindfolded people can never estimate the real qualities, and if they try to do so, it will be rather dangerous than anything close to the real features of the target person or population.
