Isn't it a bitter and unfortunate fact that beyond announcement of monetary compensation by the government and posthumous homage for few days, our patriotism and gratitude towards them goes for a toss, while our bravehearts one after another continue to lay their life for us, for the Nation?
Does the administration and the government, after the initial hu halla, visits to the home of the martyrs, giving bytes in the press and media applauding the sacrifice of the Bravehearts even bother to look upon and enquire about the well being of their kids and other family members?
In majority of cases, NO.
They are left to lead their life, post loosing their near and dear one's, in absolute oblivion, ignored and forgotten. And yes, why only the government, even we, the public has very short memory. This is unfortunately a hard and bitter fact.
Basically, we are ungrateful evils wearing a mask of nationalism that sparks during such calamity and/or on the eve of the Customary Independence/Republic day celebrations.
Once spark ceases, those who laid their lives for us, too ceases from our memory...till some other Braveheart/Bravehearts take their place and sacrifice their life..
