I was just going through the News section of the rediff home page. There is an article about the Cauvery issue called "Award is flawed". I just went through the comments for that article. People from different states are challenging each other. One is calling the other a begger & so the others are calling the people of the former state as rowdies who only believe in violence. I read some one calling Dravid a Maharastrian & what not.

Cool down guys. I thought we are all Indians. Indians who want to challenge the world to become a super power. Indians who will unite to be invincible. Unity???? I don't see it anywhere in the near future. It is like the time when the British came to conquer India. All the kingdoms considered themselves as different & supported the outsiders(British) just because they couldn't stand each other.

Lets not repeat history by crumbling like this. We have a law & we have the right to appeal. We have the right to put forth our facts. Lets do it. Its a fight for water. Its a fight against a judgement that we want to object to if at all we do. Its NOT a fight between the people. Please differentiate between the two. Please remember that a violent bandh is also expensive for the state that declares it. Lets calm down & think logically.

Today India has become a brand to the world. Violence in Gujarat, bombing in Bombay, earthquake in Bhuj & Tsunami in Tamil Nadu are all percieved as problems in India rather than a particular state. We all want to grow so lets grow together as one by being the sensible ones.

Lets show the world that even in troubled times we say "Sare Jahan Se Accha Hindustan Hamara".

Jai Hind!
