An expensive GARLAND!!!
I have lived in Bahrain for 9 years now. I have seen a lot of different dinar notes here. The design, colors and looks of the notes have changed 3 times in these 9 years. I guess it will be a similar case when it comes to UAE Dirhams, Kuwaiti Dinars, Saudi Riyals, etc. People here love to change the designs every few years. People love to see new notes. You will never ever find a cut in a note. You will never ever find an old note. Banks circulate them very well. Actually, its funny at times. They, sort of overdo it. But hold on, I think the people here love their currency. They take pride of their currency. It’s as if - it's a National Symbol and they want to show the best to the world. You might call is show-offism, I'll call it Nationalism.
In India we lack it. When you see people making garlands out of currency notes, that’s highest form of disrespect that you can show to your nation. Forget Mayawati for a while. We all know what kind of Nationalist she is, but making garlands out of currency notes has been there for a long time now. Why are we waking up now and ostracizing the CM of UP? Is it because of the value of the garland??? Why didn't we ever blink our eyes when our brothers wore a garland of currency notes at his marriage or when we greeted a religious guru with such a garland??? Any impertinence shown towards National flag, national currency, national heritage is a complete 'NO-NO'. It shows our values, our love for the country or THE LACK OF IT.
As I have been saying for quite some time, in the last few years, there has been an erosion of values among my brothers and sisters living in India. The 'Chalta Hain' attitude is killing us. The 'ignorance is bliss’ attitude has taken roots in our minds. No wonder the Government and the media has taken all of us for a ride. They know, nothing is gonna affect us too much. We will 'forget and forgive' or even worse - ignore!!!
Wake up guys!!! The world is looking at us. We have to live up to it!!!

News which we never got on our main stream TV media.... Communal Riots in Bareilly.... CM Mayawati released the main accused Maulana Tauqir Raza Khan after police arrested him as main accused... to pacify his supporters I guess :-P Shameful....The news is on NDTV site... wonder why they don't show it on their news??? Is it because the main rioters are from the other side??? Your guesses are as good as mine.....
