| India's
60th Independence Day... expectedly,
it's time to hoist and celebrate.
Subsequently, 15th August will
see the Prime Minister hoisting
the flag at Red Fort followed
by the glilttering parade. While
these festivities transpire every
year, we think the relevance of
this historic day isn't catching
up with the youth.
Large
number of our population falls
under the age group of 35. But
how many of them feel deeply
rooted to their motherland?
Cynics point out that the young
generation of the country have
completely forgotten their roots
by way of American degrees,
MNCs, MTV, McDonalds and fancy
gizmos .
So,
what does freedom, patriotism
really mean to the `Chak De'
generation. On the eve of the
Independence day, Mayur Lookhar
and Rachna Trivedi spoke
to few of our young patriots
from Tellywood.
