There was an ID celebration at my community today. I went to a farm for a birthday party too. Everyone greeted each other. It was a happy day.
Nothing wrong at all with this.
I got back home and saw all the messages on our 80th ID. It swelled my pride of being Indian.
Until this video rolled in.
Am not ashamed of my privilege. I enjoy it almost everyday - the doors that open, the exposure I take for granted, the friends I keep, the society I live in. All.
But when I saw her ask for what I never ever thought of asking. It made me stop. And ask myself: has 80 years of Independence been equal to all?
Happy 80th Independence Day!
