Vande Mataram!



Today is August 15th. India is 58 years old today. I think in days like these, my patriotic side comes alive. In everyday conversations I tend to slight India as I suppose all Indians do. And of course, she has her shortcomings. She may be corrupt and overpopulated and reluctant to take opportunities when they come along… but she is Home. And today that spirit of belonging overrides everything.

So here’s wishing our home a very happy 58th birthday and may this year be famously successful for her and may her IT and BPO sector continue to grow to greater heights and may her lands be independent once again from her forces within her that are slowing her down!

Vande Mataram!
