Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel remarked:
"There is something unique about this soil, which despite many obstacles has always remained the abode of great souls".
In the Ancient Period, India was very developed, prosperous, rich, and civilized. That is why it was known as the Golden Bird by foreign visitors who visited it. Industrially, militarily, scientifically, agriculturally, medically, and every walk of life was developed. Its development was even par excellence so far as the development of modern western countries are concerned.
Indian villages were self-sufficient units of human life.Their agriculture was more developed than even that of today.
It is like a story. A few centuries ago India was the world's wealthiest nation. There was no poverty, plenty to eat, trade was booming... riches abounded. Fittingly, it was called the "golden bird" by the rest of the world.
Which is why it attracted first the Mughals and then the Europeans, including the British. They plucked bare the bird of gold. By the time India became independent, it was a hollow shell riddled with poverty, illiteracy and crippling debt -- this was a fairy tale with no happy ending?
Present picture:-
The rift between Rich & poor is on its continuous increase.
Common man is getting all the more burdened with the increasing cost of living . Food inflation, Education inflation, Health care expenditure, Rising rates of real estate making it hard for a common to live in his own home.
Loans are becoming a favorite option further adding a burden on his life.
We say that we are a developing nation or developed as few call it. But at What COST?
Today, Lifestyle diseases are the major cause for deaths in India.
-> India No.1 in cardiac patients.
-> India No.1 in cardiac patients.
-> India has one of the highest numbers of diabetic patients in the world, as many as 30 million, and growing by the day.
-> Hypertension & Stress, especially from work, account for more than 50% of heart ailments.
-> 100 million people in India have high blood pressure.
-> Two out of three employees in India are victim of stress
-> Over 40% of urban Indians have high lipid levels (cholesterol and triglycerides) that are the major risk factors for heart disease.
