Seventy-seven years ago, India was released from British enslavement and hatred. By 2124, I envisage a new and better India, free of problems like unemployment, poverty, illiteracy, and a slew of other societal ills.
I envision an India in which women have equal rights and impoverished children receive adequate education. I wish to see India rise beyond its challenges and social ills by enacting effective and equitable policies of secularism, equality, and justice. I am still hopeful that my vision will become more than a pipe dream, and that by 2124, I will witness a new and improved India free of the incessant stigmatization and inequity that is a part of its society. But, in order to attain such a future, we must first work on the present and learn from our history.
Throughout Indian history, there was not always unity and tranquilly, but there was always variety and dignity. That is, until the British grabbed control of the country and invaded it. This had a significant influence on Indian culture and civilization, and there was no further progress for many years.
Years passed until we became tired of being mocked and imprisoned, and our forefathers battled for our rights and growth. Now that we’ve imagined our future and how we want it to be, as well as researched our history and ancestors, it’s time to go to work on improving the present.
