This is with reference to the report,"Vasco MLA collects soil from temples.......- The Goan Everyday 30 July 2022." Great thought that, collecting soil from various religious places in Goa for the construction of the new Parliament House, sending out a strong message of unity. Yes, we are all connected to the soil. It is a pity however to see our countrymen migrating to other countries, leaving behind the soil which is supposed to unite all of us to this great nation, India, irrespective of caste, colour, religion, culture, etc.
Another thought, is it just the soil which should unite us all? We have the Constitution, framed by our great personalities, which speaks of justice, liberty, equality and fraternity among all citizens. We need to uphold this Constitution and live with one another in a spirit of love, peace and unity, no matter whatever the differences were all have. Parliament building or religious buildings are mere blocks of stone. The real India is, living in one another's heart! Is this asking for too much?
