Fancy dress at the Red Fort
Fancy dress competitions used to be held in schools and colleges so far. students used to dress up like Bhagat Singh, Subhash Chandra Bose and other national leaders shout Jai Hind get uploaded for the performance and win hearts. But one cannot become those leaders the moment you wear the dress. Once you get down from the stage you have to change it. Ok app does not make you a believer of Bose like the broom will not make you were Gandhi follower and the short does not make you the Iron Man like Patel. If one believes all these metaphors can make them great leaders it would best be called an Illusion of a fertile mind.
The speech that Prime Minister Narendra Modi deliver from Red Fort on the occasion of 75th anniversary of Subhash Chandra Bose's Azad Hind resembled one such fancy dress competitions. Subhash Chandra Bose played very important role in the freedom fight of this country. Though he did not believe in the non violence Subhash Chandra Bose had great regard and respect for leaders like Jawaharlal Nehru and Mahatma Gandhi. do Gandhi did not agree with Bose noise of fighting the British deep down he nursed great respect for the leader.
Subhash Chandra Bose's choice to drive the British away was more or less like riding the tiger. Bose’s travel to Germany and join hands with Hitler. He had planned to change the British out by second world war with the help of Hitler. He built a separate Army for the purpose. The army was a secular one because Hindus and Muslims together join hands with bows to fight the British. Jai Hind was coined by Zain Ul Abideen a very close confidant of Bose. He joined Bose's struggle for freedom fight after quitting his engineering education midway. He left Behind everything for the call of freedom. Hence it is our duty to remember him on the 75th anniversary of Azad Hind.but the speech delivered by Prime Minister Narendra Modi gives rise to the doubt whether he used Red Fort to further drive his ‘hate Nehru’ agenda into people's minds.
While he remembered the sacrifices made by Bose and other prominent leaders Modi kept reiterating that only one family was getting all prominence in this country. No one in the country believes that the nation is only indebted to Jawaharlal Nehru. Bose and Nehru had different personalities. Bose's choice of road to freedom was not a sustainable one. Hitler was a dictator. Enter achieved freedom by using one Dictator against another was a very complicated thinking. Boys had a very soft stance about authoritarianism. He believed India was not prepared for democracy even after few years into its independence.
Bose failed in his chosen route. Nehru fought for independence and he even became the architect of modern India with is farsightedness in growing agriculture industry science technology and other areas. He took the India that was destroyed by internal bickerings towards the path of progress. For somebody who occupies the chair of prime minister to put two leaders against each other and compare them to divide and other one is not something that's very dignifying.
Fernandes when Bose was building Azad Hind Cena one of the organisations who would stop him from doing so was Hindu Mahasabha as well. Vinayak Damodar Savarkar or any other leaders on the Hindu brigade never joined hands with any of the freedom fighters. So if the Prime Minister wants to reconstruct history by adding false information to it it does not pay any respects to the departed leader. Let's consider Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel. Modi government things they are paying greatest respect to the leader by erecting his biggest statue. Patel was always seen with Gandhij and identified with Gandhiji path to freedom. Mahatma Gandhi tried to bill the whole Nation on the value of ahimsa. But now the whole world knows what Modi is opinion is about ahimsa.
Patel brought the country together emotionally and geographical e under the leadership of Nehru. But RSS had lied to Patel that they would take part only in cultural manner broke its promise and ensured the ban on them was withdrawn. Today they play a role that totally contradictory to what they stood for, then. The statue is a cross that stands on the grave of Patel and it is no great respect that Modi is showing towards Patel.
If Modi really respect leaders like both Patel and others the first thing he would do is to control the communal outfits in the country. He would also try to put a stop to the violence that increasing in the country. Without doing this if he wears was his cap and Gandhi is broom along with hotels shawl it measures mean that he is performing a brilliant fancy dress and people may merely applaud only for that.

Inappropriate for MLAs seeking free IPL tickets, says D.K. Suresh
Bengaluru: Bengaluru Milk Union Ltd President D.K. Suresh on Monday said it is inappropriate for MLAs to seek free IPL tickets, adding that those interested in watching matches should pay for them personally.
Speaking to reporters near his residence in Sadashivanagar, he said, “IPL is a commercial tournament and does not represent the country. It is not right for public representatives to focus too much on such matters.”
Referring to the recent controversy during the RCB celebrations, he said, “let us find out who benefited the most from the statements made during the incident.” He also pointed out that BJP MLAs had received IPL tickets as well.
Responding to discussions about relocating the Chinnaswamy Stadium, Suresh said the government has already approved the construction of a new stadium at a location he had proposed.
“I had suggested building a stadium in Surya City and submitted a proposal for it. Bengaluru needs four stadiums in four directions to cater to its growing population and encourage youth participation in sports,” he said.
He noted that apart from Kanteerava Stadium, KSCA, and the Football Stadium, there are limited facilities in the city.
“When I was a Lok Sabha member, I had proposed allocating 100 acres in my constituency at Surya City. The land was later earmarked and the plan approved,” he added.
Suresh said he has discussed the project with Minister Zameer Ahmed Khan, Rajiv Gandhi Housing Corporation Chairman Shivalingegowda, and Anekal MLA Shivanna.
“The Cabinet has now approved the project, and a stadium will be developed on around 50–60 acres,” he said.
He further added that he has requested the Deputy Chief Minister to build another stadium at Shivarama Karanth Layout through the BDA, where 40 acres have been allocated. Plans are also being discussed to develop a well-equipped stadium in Bidadi.
Commending state government's recent bilingual policy move, Suresh said forcing children to learn three languages could affect their comprehension.
“It is a good decision to make two languages compulsory. Learning a third language should be left to the choice of students and parents,” he said.
Responding to criticism from BJP leaders, he said their tendency is to oppose every decision of the government.
“To please their central leadership, they take a pro-Hindi stance. Instead, they should advocate for the adoption of Kannada in all states,” he said.
When asked about the earlier three-language policy under Congress, he said, “the situation is different now. Today, the focus should be on quality learning. Kannada should remain the primary language, while students and parents can choose an additional language.”
