Hello Dear Fellow ! .....a dream that everyone agreed to dream and now I think there actually is a country called India. Midnight뭩 Children ! The narrator of Midnight뭩 children describes it as a kind of fantasy. I think that what he or I - through him -was saying was that there never had been a political entity called India until 1947. The thing that became independent had never previously existed, except that there had been an area called British India. If you ask people in general , They would have absolutely no problem with the idea of India at all. The history of India is the history of independent nation-states. All those independent histories agreed to merge together into an idea of the nation of India. This idea of nation-state was an invention. It was an invention of the nationalist movement. And a very successful invention. From Kashmir to Kanyakumari in south and Kutch(west) to Nagaland in the east, India is one country. Kashmir called a haven of peace, of beauty, of unrivalled tranquillity, where forests of pine, deodar and spruce are watered by gushing streams, fields of wheat and barely sway in the cool Himalayan winds, all surrounded by majestic green mountains crowned by wispy clouds , attracts thousands of tourists annually all over the world. India enjoys the taste of four seasons. All of them are unique and have their unique significance. Taj Mahal - It has been called the most beautiful temple in the world, the white marbled mausoleum at Agra has become the monument of a man's love for a woman. I'll take you guys to India every week ! Cheers and wait for the next time ! With Love to all ! :) |
