It's 65 years already!
Congrats!
We changed the fundamental of that constitution within a short span and pretty much killed half the spirit of the idea already! And I am really hyped with the knowledge that I will have to get up early even on a Sunday morning. >_>
But we still manage to progress somewhat and are a proud nation which comparatively survived many of the problems others, getting the freedom along with us, faced.. Hmm I guess That's something to celebrate. And I like to see the parade and jhankies. I hope the weather is favourable and all goes well.
PS: Don't blame me for the latest stuntmen in the field. I didn't vote for AAP.

No the weather is fine and everything seems to work out fine. I watched jhankies on the TV. Had to drop and pick my son from school though so I missed the parade.
AAP - I don't remember a new politician losing all the hype this fast in the history of independent India. The days he asked for voting whether he should take oath or not I simply facepalmed. And since then they are hitting news almost daily and all for the wrong reasons.. the noobs.. ~_~ lol
That's internet for you. People like to put down others so that they can feel better about themselves. Few of them would take a look at the problem objectively. It's our local problem and it's up to resolve the issues and educate people better. Just work on our own outlook and possible solutions for it if you can and wherever you can.

Happy republic day to all Indians.After 65 years, we are still searching for new Gandhi and new 'Kranti', I hope all of us will remember that we still have a long way to go, and just celebrating republic day, isn't enough to show our love towards the nation.>_>
I hope this republic day will make the people of this country realize that republic day doesn't mean the public holiday, but rather something more.

Who is looking for a New Gandhi? Not me. Kranti was so not Gandhi's thing anyway. Maybe we can use a few Tagores and Ambedakaras.Happy republic day to all Indians.After 65 years, we are still searching for new Gandhi and new 'Kranti', I hope all of us will remember that we still have a long way to go, and just celebrating republic day, isn't enough to show our love towards the nation.>_>

On another note: I find some posts re-quoted when I have already replied to them and didn't tag them again. Does anyone else had it?

Because most of them never read history? Name one successful movement by him which didn't meet it's end rather abruptly and without reaching any conclusion or worse with riots( Hint: Mopala*).Remaining Indians I must say, what happened in the Delhi in the last election is clearly an indication of that. They related Kranti and Gandhi, I am not the one who is relating them.
Not to forget he is the one to gift us Nehru dynasty instead of letting congress make democratic choices in the matter. :|
Thank you!!
The delusional youth...

There are very few Indians which read the history to come to that conclusion, nation needs to read the truth and not some delusional speech given by some politician, who changes the facts to fit his own politics.>_>
On Nehru dynasty, this is something that is everywhere, let's call it dictatorship under independence, why to accuse Gandhi for it?:|
Gandhi movement was successful because there were many factors to act as catalyst, including Patel, Bhagat singh, Bose and Ambedkar, something that modern movement lacked. Indian independence was combination of Gandhi and Kranti, people need to accept it and those people who call themselves Gandhi need to understand it.U_U
Because Nahru was not the frst choice for PM post. His name was put forward only because Gandhi was partial to him and because some Gandhi loyalist( acharya Naren Dev and few other names I am forgetting) wanted to make him happy. The same way Subhash Chandra Bose was forced to resign in 1939 from congress because Gandhi didn't like him as it's president.
One may disagree of course but it's my personal view on it that actions like this where certain leaders used their influence to make the more democratically selected candidates bow down and make way for his personal candidate, laid down the foundation of congress' behaviour even today.
Of course it's also true that it's leaders act like crab in a bucket and do a fantastic job of pulling each other down and are happy to let Nehru family take lead as long as their rival is also out of the race.
It was not "his " movement. The freedom fight itself was not started by him, nor it met ends only because of him. The movements he ran kept getting cancelled half way -Chauri Chaura, Mopala riots and then WW2. Gandhi didn't even ask for it till 1942 and then WW started and he backed of once again asking people to support Britain. He went as far as refusing to lend any support to INA later on even when Nehru fought their case seeing the popular sentiment.
