Ignorant IITians

The development of social structure is very complex phenomena. Many forces are consistently working for giving it a new shape, a new direction. Unfortunately these forces are not always good for humans or a particular community. As the process is very slow, the impact is observed in many advanced stage which sometimes becomes incorrigible.

The wise person of a particular community are supposed to keep eyes on such development and project its implications on the society in long term. After understanding the problem well, he is supposed to aware the common mass and take necessary steps.

But it was unfortunate that wise men of India are very ignorant about many issues. One such burning issue is the problem of conversion. A conscious mind is supposed to take his own path for fulfilling his goal. But problem is common mass follows things just for immediate gain. They can not be categorized as persons acting consciously. The problem arises because of conversion of these lot of common masses. I will write the problem of conversion in detail later. Today I just want to high light that even IITian who are considered as the brightest breed in India could be ignorant about social structures.

While talking on the issues of conversion I found that my senior from IIT doesn't know that Hindus are staying in Pakistan, leave the status, social and economical condition of those fellow brother who are treated as secondary citizen in their own homeland. Historically Pakistan was the land of Hindus, but because of ignorance our ancestors these people have to live there as secondary citizens.

What is more unfortunate that, that particular person is very caste conscious. As a girl in his community refused to marry him and chosen a boy from other community, he gave a great deal about the distinct culture and tradition of that particular caste. How fool could an IITian be? We have to raise question about our education system, which rate a person on his capability of earning or making money rather contributing significantly on building his own society.
