Below is a special contribution by Col RD Singh (Retd) about Republic Day.
Celebrating Republic Day
Here comes 26 January and the magnificent  Republic Day Parade - the day to feel proud of. The parade show cases the strength, unity, and rich heritage of our nation. It displays our national will, unity in diversity, and a patriotic fervor. The armed forces showcase their splendour, while we remember those who sacrificed their life for us. As we see the smart marching contingents, our chest swells with pride. The nation is dressed up bright, in a secular thread, during the various functions held at the national level and in each state.
R-Day celebrations  has many more pluses. First, on this day, the whole nation is spruced up as parades and functions are held from at least district upwards. It is like the nation going through an annual inspection. Second, a number  of other functions like Beating The Retreat, At Home, cultural functions etc are held subsequent to the R - Day parade. These are good events which bind the nation in a secular thread. Third, various bravery and achievement awards are announced on this day. This is good for the morale and motivation of the nation. And very important, it adds glamour to the nation which is a must for the largest and  vibrant democracy like ours. The parade is watched across the world. The national spirit and ethos, developmental projects to uplift the poor, advancements in science and technology, strides in international sports, our election system, free and dynamic media, and above all – the largest ticking democracy of the world – it is all there in front of the world to see. Why should we not be proud of it.
Some quarters may raise their voice against the parade. It needs to be reiterated that cancelling, scraping, dismantling, destroying are the easiest thing one can do. But organising, building, constructing, and holding an event require hard work and unity of effort. There is no  gain without pain. So, let the show go on,
today is not the day to just sit indoors and take a holiday, because it is cold outside. Watching the R D parade on TV and sleeping off is not enough. Lets go out and be part of the celebrations where ever we are, join in singing  the national anthem, salute the national flag, and pay a homage to our martyrs. If possible, share some food and clothing with the poor who are out there on the footpaths. They are also our fellow country men. Lets rise above the narrow confines of caste and religion, or political affiliations, and hug one another as Indians. For today, lets not talk negative politics or scams, but achievements. Lets not crib and criticize, but spread some cheer around. Can you imagine, when over 1200 million people are rejoicing together, how happy a nation we will be! And a happy and united nation can do wonders in peace and progress.  Happy Republic Day!

10 years Jail term for OP Chautala and Dr Ajay Singh

10 years Jail term for OP Chautala and Dr Ajay Singh
SIRSA NEWS ( www.SirsaNews.com )
22, January 2013
Pictures and Videos: Amar Singh Jyani, GS Mann
A CBI Court in Delhi has pronounced 10 years jail terms for Ch OP Chautala MLA, Dr Ajay Chautala MLA Dabwali along with 53 others who got terms varying from 3-10 years as per independent pronouncement for each accused. The sentence is an outcome of the Haryana JBT recruitment scam.

1.      Before the sentence was announced, the supporters had clashed with the police, which was grossly outnumbered, and used tear gas and batons to stop the mob from entering the court complex.

2. Haryana Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda has appealed for calm. "All are equal for The court, and we have faith in the judiciary. We will appeal to the people to maintain peace.There are legal processes, if anyone has objection they can follow legal procedures," he said.

3. The Chautalas were convicted last week, along with 53 others, of hiring thousands of junior teachers for government schools in exchange for bribes.

4. Mr Chautala, who has served five terms as chief minister of Haryana, was moved from jail to a Delhi hospital two days ago after he complained of chest pains. He was not brought from the hospital to court today. The defence lawyer had asked the court to factor in Mr Chautala's age - he is 78 - and his poor health, while deciding on the jail term.

5. His son, Abhay Singh Chautala, has accused the Congress of misusing the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to frame his father in the scam.

6. The CBI, which investigated this case, had asked for the maximum possible punishment for them, saying the crime was pre-planned and committed after deep deliberation.

7. The CBI says that Mr Chautala and his son had used forged documents to appoint the teachers.

8. Haryana votes next year for its new government. The Chautalas were planning to target the ruling Congress for being entrenched in graft. But their sentence disqualifies them from contesting the election.

9. The Chautalas will appeal against the verdict and sentence in a higher court. Senior leaders of the INLD meet later today in Delhi to decide their strategy.
