Why Today is Sachin's Day?

It was 23 rd march yesterday and 80th anniversary of execution of legendary Bhagat Singh, Rajguru & Sukhdev..The day is remembered as Martyr day (Saheed Diwas) and should be a day to honor the sacrifice and introspect whether we kept the principles and independence still ablaze .
Today exactly after 80 years of that milestone of Indian freedom struggle, when India is touted as world's biggest democracy, Indian parliament witnessed boisterous uproar of legislators when one more scam is exposed by wiki leaks.
"Cash for Vote", as they call it , is a stain on the chapter of Indian democracy . In 2008, congress had won the vote of confidence by buying the vote of many MPs.The price was 10 crore for each vote.
It was a complete subversion of democracy on Saheed Diwas. Prime minister had condoned his henchmen's crime by his fallible arguments. It would have been prudent of prime minister to order for an inquiry and take the moral responsibility .
Today we are on the verge of facing one of the biggest oil crisis , thanks to Libya- NATO war. There are other umpteen number of problems when more than 50% of Indian population in its twenties is contributing to unemployment significantly. Corruption is proved to be the Achilles Heel and the broken cog of our progress wheel. The impious nexus between politicians, industrialists and media is the only reason why India's biggest swindler and tax evader Hassan Ali is out of bar. Why no one raise the question of arresting. Lalit Modi ,who is enjoying his asylum in UK after earning billions of dollars, thanks to his shrewdness.
If you are a whistle blower, be ready to face the music. See, what happened to Bagcha,  A. Raja's aide.He was said to be converted to CBI informer. His body was found hanging in his house. Was it a suicide or he was strangled? No penny to answer this question.

SO many scams in public domain have maligned India's image in world .Here it's imperative to mention one more scam which came to light last week only. A large number of pilots in India have earned pilot license by unscrupulous means.A pilot needs to complete 200 hours of flying before he obtain a license. In India you can earn a pilot license, if you have some money to buy those who have authorities. 
In hind sight  we all are plagued with corruption and all ethical parameters are bruised aside . I will not be bemused if Mr Warren Buffett, who is currently in India on his philanthropic mission would regret his decision when he would know that a bigger chunk of his money would never reach to needful.

Can we look upon someone for some inspiration ? Can we think of someone for our edification? Do we know some one who is Mr. Clean and never been implicated.

On Saheed Divas, I can think of only one man, Sachin Tendulkar , who has the stature of Bhagat Singh.He had the uncanny resemblance of Saheed -e- Azam Bhagat Singh.Both of them devoted themselves for their nation when they were adolescent. Today, one day later to Saheed Divas i.e. on 24th March, India will play Australia in Motera, Ahmadabad and whole nation is vying for victory and looking towards one man....Sachin Tendulkar . Only Sachin can transcend the mundane with  sublime rendition of his master strokes.
 Sachin has been the best shot in our armor and he is the most astute yet humble player of this era. He don't have swagger in his gait but in his strokes. Such is the man or (Sachin is the man!)....

Remember these australians are the descendent of Britishers and there National anthem still adulate Queen.
So when you hear the song before the match , adrenaline should rush to you blood and so in your elevan men army and JAN GAN MAN should give you the same boost which Bhagat Singh had that time.
As Bhagat Singh coined the word "Inqelab Zindabad", word for you is "De Ghuma Ke".

Will Sachin rise to occasion and salvage team India from getting knocked off . Go Sachin Go...we all are ordinary people looking for you to ward off the Australian blow. We wish for your 100th century and we know you had already taken up the gauntlet.  Period.
