Another year has gone past to let
us enjoy another Diwali. As Cityblog has mentioned that its more about how you
celebrate your life between celebrations is what matters. Though I appreciate agents of change as it’s
a common saying that only constant in this world is change. Some changes are good.
In context of Diwali, awareness about damaging consequences, wastefulness and
exploitative production of crackers is one welcome change. In our childhood say
in 80s no one used to care and we used to spend money and create hazards
uncontrolled. Apart from this change there
are few other changes i am positive about since 80s is step towards gaining
rightful place in world. India is no more a pushover. It’s an economy to reckon
with, brand that world is aware of.
People in India have found benefits of education (at least small % of
its populace) and have opportunities to make some future beyond its status at
the time of birth. Development has
percolated to hinterlands though not the required extent. Awareness of
environment at least in common people is much more than in 80s. I remember
travelling in PMT bus in 80s from Deccan to Vanaj and seeing ARAI hill as we
see it today as a barren treeless mountain.
Today we have ARAI hill as lungs of city. So can be said about Cummins side
of Warje hills, Pashan hill, Taljai hill. Agreed that greedy elements have had
their say but visible differences are hard to ignore. Kids today are much aware of their future and
exposed to the latest trends in world. It can be a boon or can as well be a
bane.
