The Indian roads.


India is the land of tradition, custom, culture and various civilization mixed together. They all form the intricate pattern beyond imagination. but pattern so beautiful and practically functional that, in day to day affair one may not find any problem in their applicability.
But, all this would not have taken place if there would have been no roads in India. This worlds seventh largest country would have come to halt. i know one will argue that any country would have come to halt, but not like India. In India these are not only the dead roads but a living legend in itself.
This road only take the passenger to his destination, but if given a close look, also indicate the social aspect of it. All different and unequal, yet so close with each other. There would have been no "dilli Chalo" if there would have been no roads. Politics, the soul of Indian life, would have never survived. If there have been no roads, how the contractors and politicians would had ever succeed in buildings huge meson and industries. On which basis votes were begged.
If there would have been no roads, who would have ever been able to guess the power that one hold. Better the road, more costly the land price of the houses near by it and as more the money more the power. thus roads in India are even indicator of power and richness.
If there would have been no roads, even the foreign automobile manufacturers would not have been able to develop cheap, durable and yet cool looking machines. Thus a bit, Indian roads had again contributed in the economical development.
If there had been no roads, "chakka jam" was not at all possible, common people would had never been able to catch the governments eye easily.
People would had never been able to express their rage, happiness etc. if there would had been no roads. Thus, it will be a stupidity to neglect the road, they are dead, materially, but alive abstractly.

The Theory of Proportion and basic structure.

I have observed many of my elders saying the same sentence each and every time and on every occasion, "the present world order is too ill (aaj kal zamana bahut bura hai)". No change i had found in many years in this statement. The majistical and surprising thing about this sentence is that, it never get old. Every time, in many occasions, one can found it blooming like a fresh flower, and people enjoying its fragrance. But the question worth to inquire is the reason for infinite life of this flower. The reason is, what i have observed is, very simple. 1) the basic structure of an institution never changes. 2) the proportion and the rate of change of proportion between various things remains constant. Confused!!! Don't worry its not even that typical. You might have observed while studying history that the politics, war, plots, feelings, condition of women, children ,men, the discrimination all were static. And they will remain there forever with little change in their...

India. Diverse and Adapted.

i am always very much surprised to see the height of adaptive nature that every Indian possess. they are flexible. put them in dirt they will be happy put them in hygienic luxurious places they will be contented, no matter what they always find a some or the other way to enjoy themselves. I have seen, people from European and American nation find Indians to be very much weird. but there is a very valid reason for this weirdness. this nations has its own very long history of war, loot, plunder, exploitation and acquisition. They have already faced a lot thus they have adapted a defensive way rather an aggressive way to social problems. This defensive approach can be seen easily in regular life, people avoid confrontation and are more diplomatic, they always keep a check that they don’t hurt other nor other hurt them (traffic on Indian roads is best example.).  All these factors have made them adaptable and to protect themselves and their interest they have formed hundreds and thousa...
