it's really dissapointing to know that some ex inhabitants of my native place , feeel ashamed of the label that connects them to their homeland .Isn't it strange? A strong sense of betrayal towards your own homeland is in other words a denial to acceptance.This is a well established fact that those who do not respect their native land are respected by none.
Can we rely upon the words of an individual who feels ashamed of his roots ? Denial of one's origin is like refusing to accept the truth of mankind . Such fake people are expert at the art of pretension and their hypocrisy soars high when they talk about development. Once, while I was travelling , I met a girl of nearly my age, talking over the phone about the lack of hygiene and sanitory conditions of Patna. I somehow landed in a conversation with her as she dropped a few magazines on the floor while boarding the airplane. Extending my helping hands to her, I said, " Bazaar, a good magazine for fashion lovers !"
"True ", she replied with an assuring smile on her lips . She dusted the magazine and mumbled some curses to the ground, as if she had come from some alien land free of wind and dust .
She handed over the magazine to me and to my astonishment she said, " Please do me a favour. Take this dirty magazine . It fell on the dirty ground of a place where no cleaning is done."
I was at the top of my fury, yet composing myself, I said, "But the ground isn't dirty and you have already cleaned the magazine."
She looked at me and as her eyes rolling over my expression she appeared perplexed. Inquisitively she questioned me, "You aren't from this place, are you ? That is why you don't know these people. All from uncultured and caste oriented society. No sense of cleanliness . That is why I decided to come only once in a year to visit my parents."
I took the magazine and looked straight into her eyes, I said, "yes I belong to this land and you too . Start taking pride in your roots or else time has its own way of teaching people like you ' I went away , giving the magazine back into her hands. Inside the airplane, the hostess made an announcement for a lucky draw coupon that provided all from Bihar to avail the free lodging facility at Hotel Taj , Delhi , for one day and one night. The girl automatically rose to her feet to grab the opportunity. "Ma'am are you a resident of Bihar? We need to see your adhar card as it is an initiative by the tourism department of NCR. "Yes , I am " and the adhar card was there to give the certificate of her residence.
What if your land is not that clean ? What if you have not so sophisticated people in the coterie ? If you disown your land you can disown anyone you love. How shallow is the world , how shallow.
