Message on 65th Independencen Day

Have my heartiest greetings on the 65th Independence Day of our nation.Many of you've not seen the British Raj but fortunately or unfortunately I did.I can proudly claim I happened to be a witness to historic event of transfer of power from the British and emergence of an independent and sovereign nation India.On this auspicious day I can't help striking a discordant note like our Prime Minister that India has earned the dubious distinction of emerging as one of the most corrupt countries of the world in 65 years also.What's most worrying is our elected leaders fail or don't like to realize this home truth.So they're reluctant to weed out corruptions and instead endeavour to pamper them.It's people who can bring them to senses.Perhaps those days are not far off.We have to find solace in such optimism,may it be a wishful thinking.Thank you.
