Riots, mayhem and future
by vivek sisodiya on Nov 04, 2005 03:55 PM

If none of my countrymen politicians have done it, let me as a citizen of this democracy appologize for what happened 20 years back.
Anti Sikh Riots are indeed a bleak spot on consiousness of people like you and me who make this country.
Sikhs as comunity are well respected by everyone known for their heroic contributions in Indian defence and sports. We also are proud and grateful of them for the fantastic spirit they bring to us with them. We saw a lot of them came to india as almost penniless victims of partition and rebuilding fortunes by sheer spirit, hardwork and business smartness and it inspires many of our countrymen all across all sects and states.
In my opinion each one of us need to look back with an objective mindset and carry the best and positive lessons. We have a long way to go togather and can only go togather.
History is full of mistakes and atrocities but we need to look beyond that and realise the dreams of our past for which our people have sacrificed everything.
Time is right for a "Pyaar ki Jhappi", smile and hardwork to ensure that we leave a beaeutiful country for our future generations. :)
