On the occasion of 66th Independence day, I will promise to write something on a regular basis. Some of my french friends are always complained about me not writing in english... point noted!! Today when India are celebrating 67th Independence day, let's spend some time to remember the fighters.. the soldiers and the leaders who lost their lives for us... for a better future....
We all have read in books that India has got freedom from british raaj mainly by non-violence and civil disobedience. Which is true but partially... Lets spend some time to read India Independence act 1947 passed by British parliament during 1947 winters. It was a situation when British raaj was facing certain key challenges after 2nd world war and Britain was facing several challenges internally and externally. The cost to manage their forces to rule India was increasing day by day and our internal civil disobedience was making the situation worst for them.
What is India Independence act 1947
The Act's most important provisions were:
- The division of British India into the two new and fully sovereign dominions of India and Pakistan, with effect from 15 August 1947;
- The partition of the provinces of Bengal and Punjab between the two new countries;
- The establishment of the office of Governor-General in each of the two new countries, as representative of the Crown;
- The conferral of complete legislative authority upon the respective Constituent Assemblies of the two new countries;
- The termination of British suzerainty over the princely states, with effect from 15 August 1947, and recognized the right of states to accede to either dominion
- The dropping of the use of the title "Emperor of India" by the British monarch (this was subsequently done by King George VI by royal proclamation on 22 June 1948).
- The Act also made provision for the division of joint property, etc. between the two new countries, including in particular the division of the armed forces;
- Constitution for the New Dominions: until the time of framing of new constitution, the new dominions and the provinces thereof were to be governed by the Government of India Act 1935. (Temporary Provisions as to the Government of Each New Dominion.)
Hidden facts inside the act
We have understood whats there in our school books, Majority of the history books are written by communists and most of them are having governments influence. Our government has also cropped the facts as per their benefit and they haven't given any chance for us to understand and explore the facts. Do we know what was there for India?
Congress was desperate to take the power and they were even accepted a dominion status under "british raaj". It was "Shaheede-azam" Bhagat Singh who asked for "Purn-swaraj" means total independence. Bhagat Singh was the most popular among the common man of this country. Neither of the British nor the Congress wanted him to be bigger face than Gandhiji. so after understanding the country's mood they reverted and asked for "total-freedom". Congress played great politics by not saving Shaheede-azam because all in all they wanted Gandhiji to be the sole freedom super hero.
Our Independence act had so many hidden agenda's and agreements with british raaj including stands on "Netajee", "Bhagat Singh" and all freedom fighters. They were all terrorists for Britishers and congress also was not in favor of providing any recognition. Congress has signed several anti-India policies just to take the power.
"The real heroes of the India’s freedom struggle can be attributed to Netaji Subhas Chandra bose Bose and Bhagat Singh and their related members those related to them in the struggle for freedom. India’s Independence was evident even though the Gandhian movement were was not active as the condition was favorable for the British Government to hand over the same to Indians because of their huge losses which they incurred from during the second world war."
Transfer of Power
An act of parliament proposed a date for the transfer of power into Indian hands in June 1948, summarily advanced to August 1947 at the whim of the last viceroy, Lord Louis Mountbatten. This left a great many issues and interests unresolved at the end of colonial rule. In charge of negotiations, the viceroy exacerbated difficulties by focusing largely on Jinnah's Muslim League and the Indian National Congress. The two parties' representative status was established by Constituent Assembly elections in July 1946, but fell well short of a universal franchise.
Tellingly, although Pakistan celebrated its independence on 14 August and India on 15 August 1947, the border between the two new states was not announced until 17 August. It was hurriedly drawn up by a British lawyer, Cyril Radcliffe, who had little knowledge of Indian conditions and with the use of out-of-date maps and census materials. Communities, families and farms were cut in two, but by delaying the announcement the British managed to avoid responsibility for the worst fighting and the mass migration that had followed.

My dream
My dream is to wake up normal
To wake up and just fit in with everyone else
To be accepted as an equal
To have friends or to love someone
My dream
My dream is to vision
To vision the future in a new perspective
To vision it and only see the light
The light that will guide me in the right path
My dream
My dream is to find her
To find that one person that will turn my whole life around
Turn it around in a fact that makes everything in life nothing
Nothing compared to her beauty, smile, or personality
My dream
My dream is to live life
Live life to the fullest, making good and bad decisions
To just be the person that said I did that or yea I fucked her
To make the one regret in life or the best thing possible
My dream
My dream is to realize
To realize the true meanings of life
To realize all the secrets people hide from you
To realize what life really means not what they want you to believe
My dream
My dream is to dream
To dream about everything
Everything from nothing to something
My dream

Big Display.... 0% processing fee... flat EMI....... I was curious to know how come..... 0% processing fee and flat EMI...... amazing man...
I asked to the sales executive about that..... he told me Yes sir, Its available.... and if you're buying on your credit card its easier to process and the loan will be done in 15 mins..... I asked what documents you want.... He told me PAC card.. address and credit card xerox...... I was happy to know that now a days loan is so simple and you can purchase a 50,000 bucks LCD TV in just paying 10,000 bucks... rest flat EMIs.....

We often say, I trust you...... Do we mean that!
What is friendship..... and what are the parameters of friendship...... Can true friendship be without any expectation? infact practically speaking No... Never.... Great Indian Economist Chanakya says.... There is no friendship, without expectations..... Even in son-father relation too.....
so What we're going to do...... Do we need to trust Chanakya? hmmm No man..... never trust 100% on anyone.... just think on your set of mind too.... You're the best judge to monitor yourself.
In ancient Greece, Socrates was reputed to hold knowledge in high esteem. One day one fellow met the great philosopher and said, "Do you know what I just heard about your friend?". "Hold on a minute," Socrates replied. "Before telling me anything I'd like you to pass a little test. It's called the Triple Filter Test.". "Triple filter?". "That's right," Socrates continued. "Before you talk to me about my friend, it might be a good idea to take a moment and filter what you're going to say. That's why I call it the triple filter test. The first filter is Truth. Have you made absolutely sure that what you are about to tell me is true?" "No," the man said, "actually I just heard about it and...". "All right," said Socrates. "So you don't know if it's true or not. Now let's try the second filter, the filter of Goodness. Is what you are about to tell me about my friend something good?" . "No, on the contrary...". "So," Socrates continued, "you want to tell me something bad about him, but you're not certain it's true. You may still pass the test though, because there's one filter left: the filter of Usefulness. Is what you want to tell me about my friend going to be useful to me?" "No, not really." "Well," concluded Socrates, "if what you want to tell me is neither true nor good nor even useful, why tell it to me at all?"
so trust your friend and be positive in any relationship......... Be trust worthy.... earn respect...
