Man to my left is Mr.Veneeth Mohan, He is the man like many who leave their home while their life hangs in balance. They live in Kerala facing #RedTerror against the brutal intolerance of CPI which murders those who belong to different school of though!
It doesn't matter which they kill Left, Right & Centre, former CPI, Congress, RSS, ABVP anyone who has his own opinion which doesn't please the State & its ideological Militia. Those who live in a bubble of pseudo intellect & raise debates about #Nationalism Vs #Patriotism should open their ears and hear us roar! Now now we are asking questions about strategic targeting of #Hindu girls for forced conversions and them being trafficked in the Middle East as sex slaves in the name of Jihad! Yes We are ready to face those who kill even for having a opinion of your own! Yes we are marching against authoritarian coverup! Wes we are marching against constant and brutal attacks since 1969! Yes we are marching against atrocities by CPI and their goons against a 5 month old to grown men and women who possess a spark of individuality, their own opinions and who believe in the spirit of this nation! Yes we are marching, MARCHING TO KERALA! #SaveKerala #ChaloKeralk

As I always do again I'm not going to narrate the whole #50thMahaABVPConf session by session. My twitter feed @EshaanGanpule and the official twitter handle of ABVP Maharashtra @MahaABVP will provide good glance at that! Woah! The Golden Jubilee conference of ABVP Maharashtra was held between 24,25 & 26 December at 'Mahatma Phule Nagar, Mhada Ground, Vandre, Mumbai' it's been weeks and yes I've experienced a great program like #ShivshaktiSangam after that and yet I find myself daydreaming about waking up in my room, Getting ready, Arriving at the venue walking up front sitting on our "Social Media Table" or going to our "Social Media War Room", Meeting great people like Varda Marathe, Pallavi Deshpande, Devashree Khare, Amit Tambulkar, Zankrut Sir, Raghav Risaldar,Nikhil Karampuri and get Tweeting!! All three days I was honored with the responsibility of Live Tweeting about the things underway on the Dias and Off The Dias. I've never picked up a pen or a paper the whole duration as I always do to make notes. I was just clicking Pictures, swooshing tweets and retweeting loads! But the whole thing a essence that came through shocked me! I've known ABVP as a non-political student organisation of the students, for the students and by the students. The first program I attended was a lecture on Chatrapati Shivaji and how youth should look up to him. The one I truly took part In was a state level workshop of TSVP which I helped organising I was their making arrangements, Gathering funds, taking care of the last detail of 'Niwas vyavastha', Dealing with caterer for what menu we wanted to serve and amidst all that getting familiar with student activism which was so pure at heart thinking about nation and trying to achieve its betterment via educational activism (I'm not going to claim I understood whole of ABVP then and their, Nor I Do now but You get the jist!!) The 3K+ activist gathered their showed me real components that unite to give ABVP such a Vast and wide scope. Apart from me each and every one their had their own version of ABVP in their mind, They were introduced to the Ideology of the organisation or the body of work through different mediums than me. As I've described I was Introduced to ABVP through a program but some of them were their after experiencing ABVP through participating in a agitation or Some after they participated in program or even attended one and were drawn to the Student activism like I did. Each and every one their had a different background and a different introduction of ABVP as well as he had his version of positive, Constructive and progressive student activism in mind. But all of us had one common thing in our mind, that's a thread of patriotism, A bond of Brotherhood, A will to serve Mother Nation to reach the top. Not just a vision but a Action in form of movement for nation, that spark unites us! I've read, though about and I've experienced ABVP as a activism for three years now but the absolute unification or as Shri.Sunil Ambekar said at the #61stABVPConf a progressive unfoldment of Spirit of Nation against my eyes was one to witness! That day I rediscovered ABVP once again as I saw the whole 'Saidhaantik Bhumika and Karya Paddhati' of ABVP unfold through small incidents! It was a Epiphany to me and I'm Glad I Witnessed It! The Inaugural session kicked off the Conference when the member of NITI Aayog, The Thinker, The Economist and The man of the hour Dr.Bibek Debroy spoke about patriotism and it's Importance. The Idea he put forth was simple,"Each country in the World racing for growth, Development, Education and Economic Stability a Bond between a Individual and It's nation is vital. To be part of our nations growth and development each of us must be Proud of our nation this Torch of Patriotism forms a bond. Bond of responsibility, Towards Nation, Towards Each other. 60 years ago in 1947 we achieved our Freedom, The Movement for freedom was Operated by people Proud of Our Nation, It's Freedom, After that the Pride slowly declined But Now You have to reignite the flame of pride as you students have a huge responsibility to achieve Mission 2020" The Speaker of the Evening, Popstar Writer of "Shiva" Trilogy Shri.Amish Tripathi took the podium and with his words he Drew a Superb caricature of Bhagwan Ram for us underlining the importance of the Family in a man's success. He said,"The family has been very Important factor throughout the journey of my of my life. They've supported me in each endeavor I've Undertaken and they still do! without them me a established banker, couldn't have chosen the path of Literature that I love they supported me to follow my Inspiration Shiva!". When asked about his next book "Scion Of Ishwaku" he added,"The life of Bhagwan Ram is a pinnacle of Perfection. He has Inspired generations upon Generations to follow him. It's not about the adventures of him but the values his life teaches us are Practical, Time Tested and still applicable and relatable today. Students should learn from him." The small Interactive session set the tone for what came next but as I've stated before I'm not going to narrate a event like a reporter! The Speakers from Inaugural Sessions came from different life paths their expertise vary but the essence of what they presented was clear. The Deep rooted Love and Pride of Nation, The Brethren Bond between its inhabitants and respect and Belief in our Culture and our Indian Values and Morals is necessary for our nation to keep up with this age of Globalization. The Inspiration, Motivation of these two was overwhelming. Sure they made me feel more proud of Being a Indian and Reinstated my choice of being a Student activist of @ABVPVoice I felt good that time knowing that the principals @ABVPVoice teaches me and the Ideology that I work upon,with and for is far more bigger and as I Liked to summarize "All Inclusive, yet Conclusive" one for greater good with the moral means of Knowledge,To the end of Character and Unity. Stay Tuned for Next Vol. on Speech Session of National Organisational Secretary Shri.Sunilji Ambekar! Check out the Slideshow for Pictures! Later in last month I attended #61stABVPConf, I’ve tweeted about it, Posted about it on Facebook but I seriously needed to write about it in detail as the experience and It's impact was so deep and powerful that it would be a crime to keep mum!! The first ever conference I’ve ever attended was 48th state conference of Maharashtra, Last year I attended my first National Conference held at Amritsar,Punjab. It was fabulous there were 3,000+ of us, The crowd, Huge Stage & Stellar Public Address held at the heart of Amritsar after a massive Rally, I mean it was ‘The whole Nine yards’! But right from the start this one felt Different! Something was pleasantly different with this one. The Venue, ‘Dr. Kalam Nagar,SOA University ,Bhubaneshwar, Odisha’. The actual auditorium, The way it was glistening, The way it was all abuzz with enthusiasm, The moment I stepped in it the massive stage, Staggering Symbolism igniting the flame of nationalism, The clever arrangement of Backdrop everything was breathtaking. At the flag hoisting ceremony, massive choir of Students singing ‘Vande Matram’ launched a wave of Patriotism which enchanted whole crowd. The formal Inauguration ceremony marked the beginning of a great carnival of thought which let me a glimpse of mega mechanism that #ABVP is! I’ve been a member of ABVP since late 2012 but I started working ‘Actively’ in late 2013 around month of august to be exact. In three years I’ve never experienced event so massive yet so meaningful. I’ve never had a chance to think or process the vast scope and relevance of the Ideology that defines our activism, the mechanism that makes us so efficient, the standards that mould our activist & the motivation of our Movement, “A movement for Nation” and their I was between those thousand activists starstruck ready to churn and burn with the thought of future in head but of my nation at heart. I was wondering the campus day and night meeting great people who inspired me, who answered my questions to satisfaction and who taught me a new approach to see the world with better and a brighter standpoint! I’m not going to write a narration of conference, but focal point of my blog is going to be the values that were discussed during speech sessions, The opinions that were expressed in Parallel Sessions and a Ground Breaking “Vishwaroop Darshan’ that I had of ABVP as a whole! I intend to publish a series discussing all Speech Sessions, Parallel Sessions and the Collective conclusion session of each! Stay tuned! Being an activist of ABVP, The question I get asked most is, 'why am I a Student activist?'. Well I've had my run with it and now I'm writing to answer! The reason i was drawn towards Activism was simple. I used to romanticise about a perfect harmonious society, as I grew I began to understand real face of society, It's Mechanism and what's going wrong. As I was awaken to the harsh world beyond my oasis I was taken over by a wave, a cold wave of reality! I was disappointed and frustrated to see the corruption in Government, Profiteering in Education, Division in Society and Hypocrisy in Politics. At this time I was introduced with ABVP, the world's Largest Student Organisation, It taught me to see through to the governing Dynamics, The Solution of all problems we face, "Education" All inclusive yet conclusive Solution for all problems that our society faces today and also to Stand up and Raise my voice against the wrongs in the 'Education System' instead of whining about it! Yeah I was and Still am frustrated with the wrongs in society but ABVP taught me not to just Point out the wrongs but to correct them Democratically! ABVP also taught me not to plunge "Revolution" with means of 'Violence' when the system is faulty, but to Start 'Evolution' with positive and collective activism. ABVP taught me to include the thought of nation's betterment in my daily life. ABVP taught me to hold my head high and keep it straight in era where the wise are taunted and Hypocrites are Hailed! ABVP taught me to give back what i owe to society! ABVP taught me to Use my Skills (How few there may I Have) to help Others. ABVP taught me to Think, Act like and Be a True Student! ABVP taught me to Enrich my "Knowledge"! Enhance my "Character"! and Postulate "Unity"! ABVP also taught me not to just stand but stand United and Tall against all Wrongs in society in pursuit of Logic, Betterment, Unity, Brotherhood, Nation, Society and Truth! These are few among various reasons I became an Activist! |
