“I have travelled across the length and breadth of India and I havn't seen single individual who is a beggar or a thief. Such prosperity I have seen in my country, INDIA!” These are the words of Mr. ‘M’.
Do you agree or disagree with him?

ReplyDeletedon't think so!!
ReplyDeleteDisagree totally! Just yesterday I saw a chakka begging at a signal here.
ReplyDeleteSend him to participate in some comedy programme.
ReplyDeleteyah all beggars and theifs are in disguise of politicians who beg for votes at the time of elections and earn money like thiefs when they come to power , Mr. "M" is correct , i agree with his words
ReplyDeleteThese are the words of a British national, an East India Company employee, I don't remember his name. He said these lines way back in the 18th century before the actual onslaught by the English on India started and India was still 'sone ki chidiya' Am I right?
ReplyDeleteHe he i hope Mr.M is not serious about his comments :D
ReplyDeleteI heard somebody saying these words so wrote a blog about it.
ReplyDeleteAs Bhagyareema commented, Lord Macaulay's addressed to The British Parliament on 2nd Feb, 1835 as "I have travelled across the length and breadth of India and I have not seen one person who is a beggar, who is a thief. Such wealth I have seen in this country, such high moral values, people of such calibre, that I do not think we would ever conquer this country, unless we break the very backbone of this nation, which is her spiritual and cultural heritage, and, therefore, I propose that we replace her old and ancient education system, her culture, for if the Indians think that all that is foreign and English is good and greater than their own, they will lose their self-esteem, their native culture and they will become what we want them, a truly dominated nation”
Thanks everyone for comments. :)
Chandrika,
ReplyDeleteIn today's time I would say NO. But now on reading your reply I agree. I feel no one would have remember this part of history when you say Mr M.
Take care
I enjoy reading ur posts though \i do not comment often. But I had read this earlier and it had made my blood boil. SO when now I read it again, I just couldn't stop myself. Thanks for visitng my blog after a long long time.

That's absolutely rubbish. Ask Mr.M to come and meet me. I will show him what India is all about.He might had a reverie.
