All gave Some...Some gave all
Freedom is the blessing we have procured through great struggle. Though, sometimes I have heard people blaming our freedom fighters saying that they could have taken some other route,then things might have being better.
But, who are we? 67 years later, we in our uber-luxurious lifestyle,spoilt by the idea of power and money actually have no right to point fingers.Their struggle was unimaginable morever unendurable.

Last month I visited cellular jail situated on Andaman-Nicobar island, and that made me realize what our freedom fighters faced just to make us independent,the price they paid for it and their sacrifice is admirable.
Cellular jail, spread as seven spokes of a bicycle wheel, this unique three-storied structure was the one where the prisoners were kept,it was especially built to exile political prisoners. It is now a national memorial but before it was a monstrous place to live for Martyr. The old tree,walls over there are the only proof of trouble they have absorbed.

Few days before I was wondering from my balcony, suddenly I heard a voice "Leave Me" and then it occurred to me that the children from my vicinity were enacting as our freedom fighters, and it was very pleasant to see that they were trying to experience the life of our protagonists. I was so touched and satisfied by the feeling that the kids are also aware about the courage and foresight of freedom fighters, who in the twilight of their lives, despite years of suffering in the jail led the campaign and appreciate the tremendous cost at which our Independence was achieved.

Nicely written.
ReplyDeletegood going vaishnavi pathak. it's really true and remarking the our thinking again towards the freedom fighter.
ReplyDeleteits nice ....today's people going to forget the meaning of freedom. they don't accept that others are also free and due to that the way of their experiencing freedom is going to be some what near to dictatorship.
