Indian
We
are Indians and we are proud of this identity.
We
are Indians and we don’t have to prove to anyone about our Indian-ness.
We
are as Indian as the national flag is or the national anthem is.
We
are as Indian as the Ganga is or the Himalaya is.
We
breathe India. India is our heart. India is our soul.
We
may live anywhere but India lives within us.
We
are Indians and we’ll always be Indians.
Being
Indian is non-negotiable. Indian-ness cannot be discussed, argued, debated,
contested or questioned.
Once
an Indian, always an Indian.
India
is not only a country. It is a way of life. Let’s not disrupt it by asking an
Indian if he is an Indian.
India
is an ideology. And as Indians, we adhere to it.
India
doesn’t belong to a select few. India is for all Indians.
India
is inspiration. It inspires 1.3 billion.
India
is greater than all Indians. Let’s not tamper with her greatness.
Indians
are great because of India. Let’s stay that way.
We
are Indians. That’s a privilege.
All
Indians are not same, cannot be same. But the Indian-ness is identical.
India
runs in our veins like blood. Our blood is for India.
Hindu,
Muslim, Christian, Sikh, Parsee, Jew, Buddhist, all pale, fade, before Indian.
As
Ambedkar said, ‘We are Indians, firstly, and lastly.’
