60th Republic Day

{[['']]}
I love all the optimism that surrounds Republic and Independence Day; the debates, the future of India, the achievers in the last year, the achievements, the causes, the concerns, the speeches, images, songs, SMSs, email forwards with ppt attachments detailing the number of Indians in Fortune 500 companies, etc etc etc....

However, we here at 'only in india' would like to celebrate India's 60th year as an independent Republic with a slight amount of....how can i say it...doubt, cynicism, suspect, pessimism, reality, whatever...in our true style..

Let us start with "Republic". Not sure if a large number of people in Nagaland, Arunachal Pradesh, Mizoram, Assam, Tripura, Orissa, and Kashmir are too keen on being a part of the great Republic.

The Republic however in turn has been true to its republicees. Chopping of the RIT was a lot of fun. All the enquiries into scams, killings, rapes, booth captures, that saw the light of day in the last 60 years has also been very encouraging.

Correct me if i am wrong, but i would think in the last 60 years, the 60th year should technically have been in the top 5 or 10...right?

The last year was really really worth celebrating....

- Nithari killings - the work of the UP police should be a shining example for police forces across the world
- Blasts in Bombay - shit happens. A "foreign hand" was even confirmed.
- Blasts in god knows how many towns and cities in India - feels good if shit happens to a lot more people
- Some convictions in the 1993 Mumbai Blasts Case...yes i was celebrating this all through the night. 13 years laters almost all the foot soldiers will see some jail time. yipee..
- Gazillion suicides by farmers really shot up the business for pujaris taking on death ceremonies
- Bangalore is now called Benga#kluru0290@.
- Jawans killing officers. They are trained to kill afterall.
- Dengue. I just like the name. Just seems we seem to have resurrected a bug from pre-historic times. So cool.
- Sex scandal in J&K. Politicians accused. I dont believe it. No way. Shocking. No way. Its a lie.
- Verdict on Parliament Attack - the who done it is more entertaining that a Robert Ludlum novel.
- Rains. Now these things have been very strangely occuring for all of the 60 years of being a Republic. It really screws up the building or roads, sewage, water proof roofs and buildings. However, the Republic leaders have sorted this and replaced roads with rivers. How ingenius.
- HIV: Looks like we are going for gold on this one.

I know i am missing out on something....

ya ya ya..The Ash-Abhishek engagement. The Republic salutes your contribution.
