Just celebrate democracy before you lose it for ever!

The Rulers have become the absolute hegemony to sell of the Nation killing the democracy, killing Man and Nature.
Reforms means ethnic cleansing with racial apartheid.
Please celebrate Constitution Day on 26th November to protect your fundamental rights and the sovereignty of the nation and the democratic set up on the stake!
Just celebrate democracy before you lose it for ever!
We have no role in the fight to get independence, it may be understood. We are independent by birth and once upon a time we had been the citizen of India by birth. Since 9/11 as United States of America launched a war against terror, no one happens to be a citizen by birth on this globe ruled by United States of America.
We have no role to defend the independence of our country specifically its democracy as the old lady in Bhimtal(Nainital) a widow of a British Colonel left alone claimed that Indians might not rule, the must be ruled!
Perhaps in 1979 when Morarji Desai had to resign. I visited the lady who lived with her cats on a Sunday with Father Mascarenhas during winter vacation. Father Mascarenhas was also a student of MA and I was staying with him in Bhowali Church and he had to visit his Paris on Sunday and I had to accompany him.
Morarji Desai was the Prime Minister of the Janata Party government.
This government came to power in the March 1977 elections, because the people were furious about the Emergency. But it consisted of a number of political parties and groups ...BLD, Socialists, and Congress ( O) etc. which had very little in common apart from an anti-Indira- Gandhi stance.
The government had already started to unravel in 1979. This worsened when the Jan Sangh members refused to give up their membership in the RSS. Then Charan Singh, who had prime ministerial ambitions, broke up the government with the help of the Socialists.
As Morarji Desai's party no longer held a majority in Parliament, he had to resign.
The British lady warned, You Indians do not know the value of freedom and you have just inherited the freedom to destroy the nation.
The Free for all Open Market economy tells us what she did mean!
Incidentally, Modified President of United States of America, Mr Barack Hussein Obama is going to be the honourable guest on Republic day.
We should welcome the first ever US President on republic day and it should be treated as the achievement of the government we have elected with landslide majority.
It remains a puzzle for me what republic day we do celebrate!
It remains a puzzle for me for whom we do celebrate the republic day at all!
The puzzle is perhaps going to be solved.
We emerged as a nation amidst unprecedented holocaust which perhaps never did end for those communities who had to pay for the independence of two nations which ultimately turned to be three countries in this divided bleeding geopolitics under continuous civil war and war for the best interest of foreign interests as it used to do before the partition.
We on 26th November,1949 constituted a democratic, secular and socialist nation adopting a constitution and opted for a People's Republic of India and simply it meant that we as a nation pledged for a democracy by the people, of the people and for the people.
Does that Republic India exist at all?
Does the constitution survive to ensure democracy and rule of law for all people as the preamble of the constitution said:

THE CONSTITUTION OF INDIA
Preamble
WE, THE PEOPLE OF INDIA, having solemnly resolved to constitute India into a _1 and to secure to all its citizens:
JUSTICE, social, economic and political;
LIBERTY of thought, expression, belief, faith and worship;
EQUALITY of status and of opportunity;
And to promote among them all
FRATERNITY assuring the dignity of the individual and the _2;

IN OUR CONSTITUENT ASSEMBLY this twenty-sixth day of November, 1949, do HEREBY ADOPT, ENACT AND GIVE TO OURSELVES THIS CONSTITUTION.
Modi invited President Obama at a time while President Obama decided in recent weeks to authorize a more expansive mission for the military in Afghanistan in 2015 than originally planned, a move that ensures American troops will have a direct role in fighting in the war-ravaged country for at least another year.
As New York Times reports:

Mr. Obama's order allows American forces to carry out missions against the Taliban and other militant groups threatening American troops or the Afghan government, a broader mission than the president described to the public earlier this year, according to several administration, military and congressional officials with knowledge of the decision. The new authorization also allows American jets, bombers and drones to support Afghan troops on combat missions.
