While celebrating our Independence day, many will upload status, and stories on their social media and express their patriotism in all possible ways. They are proud of their India and its rich heritage, of course, it is true and they are not faking their feelings. But, what if they commercialize these feelings??
The product will be the best if it's made in India at an affordable price. That's why Jio hits up like anything. Ambani keeps a step up by advertising it with the Corporate Manager of India, Narendra Modi which made the common people think it's a product of the government. Even I, without more exposure at that time to current affairs, thought like that. Also, the companies like "Unilever" were renamed "Hindustan Unilever Limited", "General Motors" "Hindustan Motors", and much more...... Even "Boat" company, which business hiked as it is an Indian Product, has many Chinese investors.
PM was used as a model in Jio's advertisements
People during King's rule have undergone autocratic rule. They have to pay taxes, if they weren't paid on the date they may be punished severely, must follow the feudal system, had no rights for them, no self-respect, were treated as untouchables by upper castes, and no education (only Gurukul system for Brahmins). They were forced to do their family's profession if they weren't ready to do it. There is no justice too. During Britishers, this feudal system led them to a state of confusion and started analyses. The Mughal rule and King's rule didn't have any change for this fellow common man but the Britishers freed them at least from the caste system and tried to give an equal education to all. They allocated 1 lakh (approx.) to each part for education expenditure but the Brahmins of Gurukul took those and didn't make the education reach the poor. After Macaulay's arrival, he saw the ground reality and gave free education to all and now to date, the education system was followed. At that time most of the upper castes opposed this Educational system. But, during these dark days, a set of people enjoyed most of the luxuries in their life, called Upper caste peoples. They find it difficult when Britishers normalize the concept of equality, providing education for all, caste isn't a priority, the introduction of world class technologies, teaching scientific methods, and much of course they hiked the taxes, made peasants sell the products to them at cheap rate but there is some transition in common man's lifestyle. It hurts the upper caste people. Their lifestyle has been changed, luxuries are reduced. 1st class seats aren't allowed for them while traveling and much more. Which made them revolt against the Britishers. They washed the brains of common people and changed their mindset of them against the Britishers. This made the independent movement and independence also gained by them.
There is no change in the the lives of common people and if visionary leaders like Periyar, Annadurai, and Ambedkar aren't there, the reservation and representation of common people won't be this effective, and again the domination of Brahmins would be continued. Even till now, the domination of brahmins is continued in the so-called high-profile job, Judiciary. And the 3% brahmins are all in important profiles of government agencies who run the government literally. All chief editors of the Indian Press are from upper caste fellows.
Independence is an illusion
Even today, 1858 police law is followed and sedition cases are still followed which was formed during the British period. Pakistan and Bangladesh, which was considered single nation along with India, are now different nation. And still, the press didn't get their full freedom.
When the BJP government and RSS get rid of the nation, then India might be a full-fledged independent country
There is no use in celebrating our independence day of ours until the common people get rights
