When India will have a Buffet ?
I read this question asked by some editor in certain editorial. I dont know exactly when ?
I was going to Delhi in auto rickshaw last night. Since it is monsoon time, Shiva Ratri is comming soon, I saw lot of pple, mostly guys wearing orange dresses traveling with Kavad on their shoulder. I saw almost after every KM there is kind-of-camp (highyl decorated with lights) for theses pple and they are given best of the treatment. From Haridwar to almost every direction all major roads are usually blocked to give thm smooth walk. Ever KM there are resting places where they are served best of the food they are given money by pple, mostly industrialist and massage as well. In 10 days total of 13 carore pple are expected to take holy Ganga water from Haridwar and start a walk back home. They are given free bus and train tickets from to home to reach Haridwar.
Its tough to expect a philanthorpist from India till we are so much digged up into religious habbits. We are always ready to donate for religion cause but when it comes to social cause, a very less name will be heard. We have birla temples, we have gigantic stupendous Akshardham temple erected in every major city, delhi gives the worst example, we have tirupati richest in the world. I remeber in south a rajasthani family donated some 2 carore to a temple to give holy bath to Budha or Mahavira. Industrialists, politicians, stars will be heard of visiting Tirupati, Vaishnodevi, Amarnath, giving donation for temples, for status of their beloved in public places. But where is Buffet in India ? God knows !!
