Unending Journey!

Who says the charm does not lie in India. India, Incredible India on the verge of flagging supremacy in the world. Long ruled, exploited, trodden and left in lurched position, India bounced and showed its commitments towards the world.
India mainly driven by Young India, where 25% of the population is below 25 is mapping its own border, not on LOC but a colorful map in almost all sectors of life. Indian turks are ruling the world. It is generally said and watched that the MNCs who feared crisis handed over the control to an Indian. And we handled it responsibly.
But are we really contributing to India? Ask an IT brat where he would like to head in next 5 years. Probably the answer would be any US states or European states. Though India is experiencing reverse brain-drain, but the impact is too less.
Ask a career oriented person, where would he like to see himself in near future? Definitely the answer would be the next few steps of killing corporate ladder. Hardly you would find a chap thinking other than this. But it comes to criticising goverment, either all would step aside or would curse the current set up.
Can I ask a question? Instead of raising fingers on others, could we finger towards ourselves? Mahatma Gandhi quoted, "We must be the change, we wish to see". Are we changing?
We have some obligations towards the society where the maximum change is required. Today in dwarfed world too, a lot has to be done yet.
I don't deny that people are not working. The committed people are coming out with different plans, thus, mushrooming the street with NGOs. Still the search is on.
Today the government talks about Financial Inclusion and infact a lot has been done and is on the progress. But it is still confined to cafe rooms, seminar rooms filled with white smokes.
I thought that I would shape the world but my vision was shattered by unending committments and other pressures. Though I have not relinquished, the search is on.
I want a helping hand, a hand which can shape the real India. Instead of moving towards the urban polulation, let us move to the rural world where we can find India and can question ourselves, "Have we improved?"
The journey is on...
