Very good article, filled with bitter truth and reality.
Its sad how rich person can think of how they can make their life more easy and or luxurious whereas, poor rikshawalaa keeps thinking if he would be able to provide three meals to his family? I can only wish that one day this indifference would become thinner. Where poorer will at least be able to eat three times a day, if not live lavishly.
Thanks for sharing your article!
Shubhra Krishan comments : Sunanda, I thought your article was very thought-provoking, but I would like to know what you mean when you say "My tirade is against people who trample on others to reach to their bit of the sky. My fight is against people for whom making tons of money is the only goal..." Is this fight and tirade only verbal? What have you, as a citizen of India, been able to do towards making the rich conscious that the poor exist? When I say you, I mean all of us--Indians who are educated enough to feel saddened by the rich-poor divide. Perhaps what we really need are practical tips on how to develop more compassion and give some of their time/money/ energy to the not-so-privileged.
Shashi Bansal comments : Hi Indians do not believe in the welfare of their fellow Indians. Rich probably has enough money to feed generations and poor do not know where is the next meal coming from. We need to learn this one good trait form our fellow Americans,and that is chrarity and thinking of welfare of fellow men. Slavery may have been abolished in States but Indain servants are just short of it. People own them at a meager price.
