Peace March – I was there

5th December – Radio Mirchi organised a peace march against terrorism and in honour of Mr Kamte who passed away during the terror attacks.

As a common man, I couldn’t reach out to those who were attacked, I couldn’t help those who were killed brutally by the terrorists, but I am happy I could be a part of the peace march in honour of all those who laid their lives for India. I am satisfied that as an Indian, I could be a part of a rally for a good cause, a rally that promotes peace.

With thousands of Puneites participating in the march, we could feel the Indians in us, we could feel how everyone was deeply moved and terrorised by the brutal attacks. All our aim was one – we Indians, we salute our brave leaders, we Indians grieve over those killed, we Indians vow to fight back terrorism. The anger, anguish and patriotism could be well observed from young primary school children to the elderly couples.  It The terror attacks have only served the purpose of uniting us, served to fail the politicians and terrorists attempt to divide us Indians, and has made us much stronger. We will fight back, we will not be quite. During the march, it felt like pre independence era – may bee even those days they would march down singing praises of India. I really felt we were in the  1940’s… just that we need a true leader for our country.

I was there – 5th December – the peace march in Pune – because I’m a proud Indian.

Bharat Maata ki Jai! Vande Mataram!

Hum sab ek hai!
