Unity in diversity in Kabuliwala by Rabindranath Tagore
   Unity in diversity means unity among those people who are different, culturally, socially and religiously. People living in India are from various religions, casts and beliefs, however they are living in unity and providing the fact that unity in diversity.
 In short story Kabuliwala Tagore presents the characters who are from different culture, religion and country. Tagore attempts to depict the concept of unity in diversity. Narrator's daughter Mini says to him " Dad our sentry Ramdayal doesn't even know  how to pronounce the word crow. He is so backward." His father says, "before I could enlighten her on the differences between languages" It shows  though Mini is just a child, she curbs the unity in diversity. Mini's parents are worried about the ''tall shabbily clothed Afghan " because he is not from their country and religion.They aren't accepting the concept of unity in diversity. Later her mom says to her "Why have you accepted this from him?" As the story moves ahead, writer moulds it towards the concept of unity in diversity. Firstly Mini accepts Rahmat, Kabuliwala , as her father says" I saw her sitting on the bench next to the door speaking non stop to him." Later Mini's father also feels for him when he comes to know about the circumstances he has gone through. It no longer mattered to me that he he was an ordinary  fruit peddler from Afghanistan and I was from an aristocratic Bengali family. "He was the father and so was the I" He gives him money to visit his hometown in Kabul. He tries to show that India accepts all the cultures, races and religious beliefs without any discrimination. That's what Tagore intends to show when. he says  it's not the spirit of India to reject anything, reject any race reject  any culture,It comprehends all. It clearly shows the concept of unity in diversity.

The so Called Revolution

(The Pakistani version of revolution) Demagogues will continue their demagoguery until and unless the nation  asks them why don't your own children need these revolutions,changes and Islam.They are humiliating the sacredness and highness which is attributed to revolution.The Pakistani version of revolution needs to be added in oxford dictionary which would mean;to fool the masses in order to rule over them.  How would a person revolutionise the nation when he himself doesn't think this land worth living.On the one hand politicians enjoy the privileges of dual nationlities in developd countries like Canada and UK,on the other hand they claim for change and revolution.Had they been so sincere and honest,they would have changed the system.Why would one change the system or at least try for its betterment when he himself enjoys all the  facilities and privileges abroad.Why would one enlighten the nation by introducing the revolutionary steps in education sector when his o...

My Poem

NCULPABLE SOULS. A seemingly jubiliant April morning Mothers–innocent flowers all smiling. apparently, universe seems in order and peace For the Lilacs, blooming–allowing despair to cease. They left the threshold– all over happiness Ah! but who knows permitting forever–despair and darkness. Affection, Love, Joy drenched in tears–eagerly waiting Unbearable wait–wait compels –sits at the door praying. from nowhere bloodthirsty wolves erupted All the dreams to kiss, touch, embrace –shattered,devastated For how long in your bloody game Humanity will face the humiliating shame.

Definition of Sensitivity

Sensitivity erodes the joyfullness of life.Happiness can't be touched sans certain sleep of mind .More often than not,People in possession of sensitivity lose the cheerfulness and blithesomeness of life,even when it's knocking at their door.😊 Abdul Muqset Awan
