The Gandhian Pledge

On the occassion of 2nd October, here's the India of Gandhiji's dreams.........

I shall work for an India in which the poorest shall feel that it is their country,
In whose making they have an effective voice,
An India in which there shall be no high class and low class of people;
An India in which all communities shall live in perfect harmony.

There can be no room in such an India for the curse of untouchability,
Or the curse of intoxicating drinks and drugs.

Women will enjoy the same rights as men.
We shall be at peace with all the rest of the world.

This is the India of my dreams.

--- Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi
