NP Rank:
India Day Parade Bharat Mata ki Jai Gujarati/FIA style
since 2006 the undersigned has been raising the issue of <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 />Bikini clad/barely clad girls on Floats and children wearing rags shaking on vulgar Hollywood/Bollywood songs called Fusion (Utter Confusion) in India Day Parade organized by Gujarati Goons controlling FIA in NY & IBA in NJ. This year they have broken all records in Nudity and vulgarity to Insult India on the streets of New York & New Jersey.
India Day Parade has nothing to do with India and its rich culture but every thing to do with our PHD (Photo Hungry Desi’s) FIA/Gujarati office bearers, their families & friends.
India Day Parade in New York by FIA & in New Jersey by IBA has become a mindless affair for Democrat Party & few PHD individuals posing as Indian Leaders along with their friends who can not be paraded for any cause any where in the world. These so called community leaders who can not stand up against the worst ever called racial slurs against the entire Indian community by a Police Union, for the human rights of the less fortunate in the community and can not give any help to a 4 year old and 7 year old children in distress are paraded on the streets of NY & NJ like those who are paraded in famous annual Pushkar Mela in Rajasthan, India. Even those who are paraded in Pushkar Mela will refuse to be paraded with PHD's from FIA & IBA Office bearers.
In both Parades the organizers do not try to promote local talent who can play their ancestors musical instruments and can sing their traditional songs. This year FIA got Ms. Ashwariya from India to do the National Anthem of India and USA which NY based Riti “sunshine” Bhalla and her elder brother Vishal could have done if not better but equally good. The locals FIA & IBA promotes you can see them dressed up in vulgar costumes and shaking on vulgar numbers of Bollywood & Hollywood.
Most pathetic in India Day Parade is dominanance of Bollywood personalities & their totally out of tune & character local imitations with doubtful integrity, who are stealing from the community by selling our honor & dignity. Then there are meaningless & irrelevant floats which is no where reflecting the rich culture and heritage of Maa Durga’s India or Lord Krishna’s India or Guru Nanak Dev Ji’s India or Jesus Christ’s India or Prophet Mohammad’s India or Mahatama Gandhi or Sardar Patel or Abdul Kalam or Ratan Tata or Azim Premji’s modern India. Neither these floats reflects the contribution of Indian American’s like Dr Sam Pitroda, Deepak Chopra, Dr. Sanjay Gupta, Nora Jones, Prof Jagdish Bhagwati, Prof Sunil Khilnani, Indra Nooyi, Victor Menenzes, H P Rama, B U Patel, Umang Gupta, Vikram Pundit, Sucheta & Anil Kapuria, Vinod Khosla, Vinod Dham, Sonny Mehta etc. in the American society and economy.
People who understand public service and are capable of bringing good for the community are side lined because they are not willing to bow to the dictates of photo crazy organizers. Then there are those who are buying spots in these mindless events like a crazy doctor who bought a Pravasi Bhartiya Award by bribing the Indian officials and another got it for controlling GOPIO for 20 long years.
