My father was a child when India got independence.My father's father i.e. my grandfather was a Professor of History in L.S.College ,Muzaffarpur,Bihar .He and his colleagues worked under Britishers for 25 to 30 years,before India got independence.My the great grand father i.e. grand father's father was a land lord.I surprise to note that ,Being with English people for so many days and years our ancestors had never been fascinated by English people,though they had been facilitated by Britishers a lot.Rather they fought with them to quit the India so we are the children of Independent India.If they learned something from them ,it was creativity,speed,office decorum/ discipline, punctuality,awareness,planning,administ ration, devotion towards work ,accuracy, patriotism,dutifulness,quality ,purity,cleanliness,to implement rules and regulations strictly etc.- all good qualities only.But the youngsters ,teenagers ,who never had been with English people,most of them would not have seen them physically except in cameras,movies and TVs.But it is surprising that being untouched with them completely how come they have learned a lot from them except the good qualities as mentioned above.......ha.....ha.....ha.. ....
