"No Country". by Kalyan Ray

Recently I had the opportunity to read the review of the book written by Kalyan Ray namely "No Country".

Best lines: if I think of a nations, it is when they are misbehaving, or are playing sports like good boys.What does it mean to belong to a nation? Is it the accident of birth? Is it your memory, a yearning for some obscure stamp on the soul, some tune that plays in the blood? Or is it what others insist you are- painting your corner of the room around you."

While reading this lot of ideas flashed in my mind and the foremost being-Do we love India? Do we love cities we live like a Londoner loves London or for that reason a resident from Paris loves Paris? Do we love our villages as most of us still belongs to our roots? And, finally do we love Bhartiyata?

    it's better to be quite rather than being a vocal.
    Thanks.

  • Rajan Varma सत्य तो यही है- हम देखना चाहें या आँखें बंद करलें- कि 'भारतियता' या हमारी सभ्यता अॅौर तहज़ीब का कोई अस्तित्व ही शेष नहीं बचा है- न कोई समझना चाहता है अौर न कोई सहेजना चाहता है अपनी धरोहर; सच तो ये हे कि इसे धरोहर कोई मानता ही नहीं- बाहर जा कर हम खुद को...See More

  • S.p. Singh अगस्त के इस पावन माह में प्रश्न अपने आप ही महत्वपूर्ण हो जाता है। यह भी सही है कि लोग सत्य बोलने से कतराते हैं।

  • Sp Tripathi भारत छोड़ो आन्दोलन भी १९४२ में अगस्त माह में ही प्रारम्भ हुआ था जिसने भारत की आज़ादी का रास्ता साफ़ कर दिया । स्वतंत्रता का आन्दोलन इसी के साथ समाप्त हो गया था ।See Translation
