A proud Indian... am I??

Standard 9th... Civics class. I am sitting at the back of the classroom, head lolling off to one side. Lectures on the Indian Constitution are a very, very bad idea... especially after lunch break. As I struggle to maintain minimal levels of consciousness (while words like ‘secular’, ‘democracy’ and ‘citizen rights’ fly right over my head...) the guy sitting on the seat behind me grumbles under his breath, “Why the fuck do they even bother to teach us this shit... none of the secular-democratic bullcrap holds true when it comes to Indian politics anyways.” “Seriously...,” I snort... and go back to my semi- comatose state...

In the name of awareness...

Yeah, yeah, I know I've probably posted more this week than I had in the past one year (a direct outcome of joblessness)... but if I used to think that I'm losing my brains, I have realised today that I'm not alone. The entire world is going bollocks!
