साहित्यकार का लक्ष्य केवल महफिल सजाना और मनोरंजन का सामान जुटाना नहीं है- उसका दरजा इतना न गिराइये. वह देशभक्ति और राजनीति के पीछे चलने वाली सचाई भी नहीं, बल्कि उनके आगे मशाल दिखाती हुई चलने वाली सचाई है.

If you think about it we are one of the luckiest people in history for being alive at the same time when some of the worlds greatest leaders are also alive -Xi Xinping , Narendra Modi, Erdogan, Putin. These leaders will be remembered in history for giving a new life and new prominence to their respective countries, duniya me Danka baj rha being their greatest contribution.

I think the same can be said about every generation. People living in the era of the 2 world wars saw the likes of Lenin and Gandhi and Nehru and Stalin and Roosevelt and Churchill and Hitler. The generation before had Marx and Garibaldi and Mazzini.If you think about it we are one of the luckiest people in history for being alive at the same time when some of the worlds greatest leaders are also alive -Xi Xinping , Narendra Modi, Erdogan, Putin.

A new addition the Neo-Pharaoh Al Sisi heralding the reemergence of Egyptian civilisation on the world map with a brand new parliament, a palatial presidential palace all costing just around $45 billion, not a huge price to pay to leave a lasting legacy in the scroll of history. Plus it will generate huge employment opportunities, much like our very own Vistas project. It's not just india that became independent recently , the whole world is overthrowing the elitist yoke of yesteryears and installing sincere, grounded, people's leaders in their place. New Egypt , New India , New Turkey, new China, isn't it such an exciting time to be. Granted people in Yemen , Afghanistan, and such other hellholes are suffering but history is not written from perspective of such nondescript, unrefined geographical entities, it's written for civilizations.
