Vinta Nanda peace protest event at Lokhandwala Gardens
This goes out to all members of Staying Alive, Other groups on Facebook, Mumbaikars and all Indians. We have all joined some group or the other on Facebook that has something to say against terrorism and what happened in our city Mumbai.
We have all also attended some meeting or the other or some candle light march to show our support to the victims, to salute the martyrs and mourn the innocent who lost their lives.
We have all made tall claims of solidarity, secularism of bringing about a change etc etc. I have also done all of this…..but this time i wanna go a step further, infact i wanna take many steps further….steps towards startin a Civil Revolution.
Enough of talking, discussing and then forgetting, enough of peace marches and promises of making a change.
It’s time to act and i mean acts of defiance against the system, the corrupt politicians and everyone who has anything to do with causing harm to my country or my fellow countrymen.
I dont wanna walk for half a km in my backyard with a candle, i wanna walk from my house to the Taj and then from there to the Oberoi and to the Mantralay and then maybe all the way to Delhi. I wanna walk holding in my hands a baseball bat or a hockey stick,not because i am instigating my fellow countrymen to resort to violence but because I wanna show that the common man has to stand up and be prepared to fight for his life, for his family and his country.
I wanna start a revolution and if each one of us decide to get together and revolt against the system, we will be heard, we will have a voice and we will be in a position to demand for change. Two young boys who came for the meeting today, told me later on that they wanna walk to the Mantralay and throw a stone at the CM’s office and if it means courting arrest then they are willing to accept that too.
We need this emotion in every one of us, we have to be willing to stick our neck out, to risk something, to sacrifice something if we want to achieve all that we have been so vocal about. I made a few suggestions today and i plan to implement them and get as many people as possible to join me in this, as of now i have a two point agenda:
1. I will stop paying my taxes because the taxpayers money is not being utilised where it ought to be. Imagine if just all of us in Mumbai stopped paying out taxes for one year….will we not be heard?
2. I will apply for a arms license and with me get others to do the same.Imagine if the home department received 5000 arms license applications or 10,000 or lakhs. By doing this we will make a statement. The idea is not that all of us take to the gun, but to make a statement.
I want all of you who read this to add to this two point program, lets make this a 10 point program or more but only if we are confident that we will implement every one of those points.
I am angry, i don’t want peace…..10 young boys came into our Mumbai, our India, our Motherland….and they raped her, they have raped our Mother for 60 f#**in hours and i will not light a candle for that…i want to fight back.
