what are we upto??

Visit any of the monuments near by your city or in India.
Or rather I will start from, see the heritage buildings of India, and ask yourself "Have I done justice to them?"
My recent visit to Nahargarh made me ponder over the point really hard. I was shocked to see area, disarrayed!!!
Yes you will discuss the matter at home with family, at coffee with friends but never with yourself. One is never going to discuss with oneself about what is or what can be done.
People often debate this issue with this being the responsibility of the government, but have you ever sat alone with yourself and pondered over the fact that self responsibility is what affects the matter the most. If one has a little bit of self responsibility and cultivates the right habits, we can take a step forward to secure our national wealth.
People from around the globe visit India, with tourism rate growing 9% annually. When they come to see the land which is indeed rich in culture and heritage, we show them something they barely expect!!!
We have monuments built thousands of years ago, but the artwork on its walls belong to the 21 century!!! we build new buildings but forget that we have to even preserve the older ones.
Its like littering around in your own home.
The simplest things of all....when you want a cleaner environment, why don't you yourself make an effort for it??
We youngsters have the capacity to change the face of India. We have the capacity to make India the best place on earth, We are endowed with the treasure from the past which many great countries like America and China don't have.
When we see India growing, econimically, why cant we think about it in terms of enviroment around us??
We can keep the foreign lands clean because we cannot afford a thousand dollar fine, but cannot make our nation graceful.
It takes a small step to make it like vanilla, just do not litter around, and ask of each one around the same. It does not start with the responsibility of the government, it starts with you now and here.
