National player thrown off train in UP, loses leg
For those of you who say "India toh India hai(India is India afterall)"... there...your India! It is a shame that your national player had to travel in a general compartment, it is a shame that a robbery attempt was made and she was thrown out of the train.
India Today reports
"A profusely bleeding Sonu was rushed to the district hospital here. "
It is a shame that India today uses the word 'rushed' whereas it isn't probably true,
Hindu reports :
"The injured and unconscious Arunima was cited by the tracks by a cabin man. No passenger or official of the train-guard, driver or the police force lodged a complaint at the next stop, let alone bring the train to halt or provide care."
It is a shame that she was offered a paltry sum of 25,000Rs and only when she snubbed the offer was she offered 2lacs and a railway job.
It is a shame that a national level player was to attend a recruitment examination of CISF.
It is a shame that a complete fool like Mamta is our railway minister and a thug like Mayawati is UP's chief minister.
Mind you - this is definitely not an isolated incident. It is just a high profile case that was worth publishing according to the calculation by various media groups.
Police will probably not even be able to catch the culprits, and even if they do, what is the guarantee that the case will be solved in the next 5 years?
The despair you feel.Such shame India, such shame!

Despair, yes. I share similar feelings. Blogging for Indians is all about despair, why?
Every time I visit an American's blog, I learn something useful. It feels good, because it is not about reacting to some negative events they saw on the news. But for English educated Indians, blogging is all about sharing their outrage and negativity. We live in a world that our media projects, a very negative world. Believe me, there is another world that we keep ignoring, something that you won't find in newspapers. Let's try to discover it. And let the din of daily "news" not hinder our search for this better world.
Agreed.
In my perspective, its important that you do not get complacent about it and give up on your despair.
Critics play a vital role in nation building and I am one such critic.
Cheers
In India we are habituated to live with this kind of shame. Because our maximum leaders are not even 8 pass.
