"I have traveled across the length and breadth of India and I have not seen one person who is a beggar, who is a thief. Such wealth I have seen in this country, such high moral values, people of such calibre, that I do not think we would ever conquer this country, unless we break the very backbone of this nation, which is her spiritual and cultural heritage, and, therefore, I propose that we replace her old and ancient education system, her culture, for if the Indians think that all that is foreign and English is good and greater than their own, they will lose their self-esteem, their native self-culture and they will become what we want them, a truly dominated nation."
The quote is usually referenced as "Macaulay, British Parliament,1835".
But today I feel we lost our caliber after I lost my mobile again. Now people are not ready to give back anything to the owners if they find a penny on the road even if they know the pocket from which it fell down. When I lost it on the auto rickshaw and I found out that in 15 seconds and couldn’t catch the auto rickshaw again. The mobile rang for couple of times till I alert the driver that my mobile on his auto rickshaw. The third time I got the message that my mobile is in unreachable zone. (With in 5 minutes of time in a main area like Andheri in Mumbai city)
I feel very bad about my carelessness and about my country men. There is a scarce for Good people. I am loosing pride on my nation when this kind of things happen to me despite there are some good things to cherish about my country. But these reasons to cherish are vanishing day by day and becoming scarce now a day.
I need to be careful and every one of you too.
