[CP] Janagana Alochana Sabha (Citizen's Discussion Convention)
Uv Ajed
Greetings Everyone,
The Father of the Nation, Mahatma Gandhi once famously quoted "Unity to be real must stand the severest strain without breaking".
The reason I am writing this is because I find the nation slowly being drawn towards the disease of Decisive Politics. It's a parasite that weighs heavily on the country, it's progress and welfare, while slowly consuming the innards of the nation. This is a war of ego. A war without an end, a war in which no one is right, no one is wrong. It's all about view point of two sides, who start presuming the other as their enemy, while ignoring the fact that the enemy isn't a person or a group but their views. The enemy is within them, in their minds. This enemy is an entity which gleefully savours on power and lusts for fame.
And in this struggle for dominance if there is something that gets annihilated, it's the idea, the idea of One Nation.
This is a virtual world, run on pixels and bits. We all play this game for our own reasons. Some play it to kill boredom, some come here seeking attention, some play it to get over the pains of real life. But if there is one reason that unites us into one single entity irrespective of our language, religion, region, reason to play the game, etc. then it's the idea of a nation, "India"
It does dishearten me a lot to see the countrymen brawl and clash over pixels to prove their "value".
What will we do with the Fame and Laurel we win by going against the very cause that unites us in this game?
Will our bragging over pixels about the accomplishments and achievements we get by having proved our dominance over fellow countrymen and letting the cause of the unity die, be really worth it?
Once again I urge my fellow country men to let go of their struggle for personal interest and, put their nation and unity above everything else.

Im on baby 😃
my 5 cents: moderator(s) must be very serious and everybody (no matter the eAge, gender, etc) must obey to some common sense rules.
Agree. But easy to say, hard to do...
a wise man as always!!!! 🙂 Love you Maniu!!

bro it's on saturday 😒
sorry......its my mistake....
If I wake up, I will attend.
atleast some sincerity 😃
8.30 on a saturday.
Mods should expect drunk people also 😃
i will try my best.
just hope we will stick to the agenda and avoid party debates!
I will attend... umm in USA 8:00 erep time is about 11:00 in the morning... looks like i will be waking up really early on Saturday 😛
I look forward to the discussion, but I really dont see the harm in political fighting. It isnt like were not fighting in the same battles, or against each other. I have seen that happen, like in eCanada, and that is a bloody mess. We just like to throw fits at each other.
IST (India Standard Time) is the GMT (Greenwich Meridian Time) + 5:30
So, it will be IST - 3:30 = EET (East European Time), IST - 4:30 = CET (Central European Time), IST - 5:30 = WET (Western European Time) = GMT.
For USA, according to the area, you do the math 😛
So, for the meeting time, which is 8:30 IST we will have:
5:00 EET, 4:00 CET, 3:00 GMT
All is PM (Post Meridian), meaning afternoon 😃
Hope this will make it more clear regarding the meeting time. 😃
maniu bhai we dont have GST in India 🙂 US and others do
DST*
8 30 (pm) IST is 8 am PDT (Pacific Time) Thos eon the east coast can calculate based around this.
