Republic day rendezvous !

At 5 45 am, while I was crossing the road, I saw something like a heap covered with a tattered blanket. Under the newly being constructed metro bridge, in the windy cold weather, I wished it was not any living being. When I peeped through the blanket, to my shock, curled up with the support of the pillar was a middle aged man. Probably, he would be one of the migrant construction worker fled from his land and people under extreme economic and social distress. Empathetic, I felt towards him, but I was cruel and too selfish to look over his plight. I moved on.

At such economic inequality and social apathy why would crime not exist in India.

'Republic' that means 'state in which supreme power held by their people' , does it still remains symbolic in India and least from being manifested for the people.

Whatever ! Let me enjoy the holiday today..and unapologetically wish you all ...'Happy Republic day'
