absolutely true Rajnathji

Absoulutely true Rajnath JI. You are very right in pointing out, that
earlier even the primary students knew the names of the great
freedom fighters, now half of the college going students can't recall
what was Rowlact Act, or why did Gandhiji repeal his Civil
Disobedience. Forget about it, many cant even tell the names of
Rajguru and Sukhdev if asked who were the others hanged to
martryrdom along with Bhagat. The next generation of Indian
probably wont remember even Gandhiji. Here in Sweden people
respect India because Gandhi was born in India, and I feel proud. And
we Indians dont care about the sacrifices of those great people who
got the freedom for us. Ofcourse, Ganguly and Dravid cannot be role
models. Honestly I believe, we and the new generation Indians really
need a role model, a HERO (can also be a woman), who is a brand for
Indianness, India and Indians. Hope that happens soon. Even better,
we as the next generation parents can put the right values and morals
in our children and everyone of them is a small HERO in his her own
right and sense.
