English Literature – Article ☆ Victory Day Special – Memories of the Victory Day 1971 ☆ Shri Ajeet Singh, Ex-Director (News) Doordarshan

By Hemant BawankarNo Comments
Shri Ajeet Singh  (We present an article ‘Memories of the Victory Day 1971’ written by Shri Ajeet Singh ji, Ex-Director (News), Doordarshan.) ☆ Victory Day Special - Memories of the Victory Day 1971 ☆ Shri Ajeet Singh ☆ Bliss was it to be in the newsroom of All India Radio Simla this day 50 years ago. And it was heaven to be a young Sub-Editor listening to the relay of Prime Minister Indira Gandhi addressing Parliament on the fall of Dhaka garrison after the 16-day long Bangladesh liberation war. Clapping and celebratory gestures erupted as she announced, "Dhaka is now the free capital of a free nation". Member after member hailed the indian victory over the Pakistani forces. I still remember Srinagar MP Shamim Ahmad Shamim who while congratulating the Prime Minister said, "She has not only created a new history but also a new geography". It was a bigger bliss for me as I was to read that evening's regional news bulletin as our regular Newsreader veteran Ramkumar Kale had taken ill since...

By Hemant BawankarNo Comments
Shri Ajeet Singh  (We present an article ‘All 'Reborn' on the 15th of August!’ written by Shri Ajeet Singh ji, Ex-Director (News), Doordarshan.) ☆ Independence Day Special - All 'Reborn' on the 15th of August! ☆ Shri Ajeet Singh ☆ Dr. Subhash Kalra, an 82-year old senior citizen of Hisar in Haryana, celebrates his birthday every year on the 15th of August. A senior citizens' group , the Vanprastha, gives him the honour of unfurling the national flag at the Senior Citizens Club to mark the occasion. Last year he wished everybody Happy Independence Day and surprised by disclosing that all his brothers, sisters and cousins also celebrate their birthdays on the 15th of August in different towns they live. How could that be? Coincidence could be in respect of one or two members being born on a particular day, but about a dozen people born on the same date in an extended family, though in different years, seemed almost impossible. Dr. Kalra narrated the story behind it . His family migrated in 1947 from Kamalia...

By Hemant BawankarNo Comments
☆ Nirvana – The Highest Happiness ☆  The present times are turbulent indeed. One needs to have peace of mind to tide through the pandemic. There is a greater need to follow the doctrine and the discipline enunciated by the Buddha. His teaching is simple and easy to practice. On the auspicious occasion of Buddha Purnima it is worth to share two interesting facts:  1.   Buddha Purnima is actually 3-in-1: Buddha’s Happy Birthday, Day of attaining enlightenment, and also Maha Parinirvana Day!  2. Buddha was born under a tree in Lumbini, found awakening while meditating under a tree in Gaya, gave his first sermon in  Saranath under a tree and all his important sermons under trees, and also reached Maha Parinirvana under a tree in Kushinagar! Nirvana is described as the highest happiness - the supreme state of bliss. Those who have attained Nirvana live in utter bliss, free from hatred and mental illness.
