Vote for Taj

Posted on 30th June 2007 at - http://www.saregamapa.rediff.com/votefortaj.html

Taj is a tomb, its an expensive monument, not only in the sense that it was adorned with gems as the folklore goes, but also it costed all the artisans the death of their art.

How can such cruel witness in Indian history be called to be a wonder of the world.

Ok, point 2 for my angst against this 7 wonders campaign is more contemporary.

I got a mail saying are you sleeping, Taj is 100 something in the ranking, and I shld wake-up and do my patriotic bit by voting at the link.
Crap, I would ask the people of India who have access to the internet to pledge rather than vote for better things like 1098 - child help, CRY - sponsor a child and any other ngo.

If India has educated folks even in the rural areas, we might all comeback from across the 7 seas forever, we dont want to comeback just to see the Taj for heavens sake. There are much better things in life.

BTW - has anyone been to Agra lately, has anyone read how the government treats the drinking water source - Yamuna for the people of Agra.

My friends, there are much better things that we all can contribute back if we really think abt.

an educated India will be strong and wise enough to discourage corrupt politicians make our nation inhabitable.

The punchline is if all Indians are educated, there will be 100 million votes than 1 million votes now. Do you think the worldcan stop us then ?

This is really food for thought

God Bless,
