musings 347

I have some memory of the 1962 china war and clearly remember subsequent warlike situations or wars in which our dear country was also dragged into.

Used to read newspapers and have listened to news too in radio then too. People though neither as affluent nor enlightened as today about strategies kept their calm and maintained restraint befitting the emergency we faced.

There were only rare exceptions.

Indeed very tare.

But at present even such sad situations are used for theatrical showmanship and celebration in an absurd manner..

Patriotism and dignity of the motherland are often sacrificed at the altar of this dramatics.

And with every passing day our attitude is sliding towards more and more of decay and decadence

This will not do.

This is sad
