MORAL STORY.
There was a farmer who grew excellent quality corn.
Every year he won the award for the best grown corn.
One year a newspaper reporter interviewed him and learned something interesting about how he grew it.
The reporter discovered that the farmer shared his seed corn with his neighbors.
“How
can you afford to share your best seed corn with your neighbors when
they are entering corn in competition with yours each year?” the
reporter asked.
“Why
sir,” said the farmer, “Didn’t you know? The wind picks up pollen from
the ripening corn and swirls it from field to field.
If
my neighbours grow inferior corn, cross-pollination will steadily
degrade the quality of my corn. If I am to grow good corn, I must help
my neighbours grow good corn.”
So it is with our lives...
Enrich the lives of those around you and your life will become beautiful.
call it a principle of success...
call it a law of life.
The fact is, none of us truly wins, until we all win!!
Story.
Welcome cup of Tea...
( a touching true story...)
A
group of 15 soldiers led by a Major were on their way to the post in
Himalayas where they would be deployed for the next 3 months.
The batch who would be relieved waited anxiously.
It was cold winter & intermittent snowfall made the treacherous climb more difficult.
If someone could offer a cup of tea. .
the Major thought, knowing it was a futile wish..
They
continued for an hour before they came across a dilapidated structure,
which looked like a tea shop but locked. It was late in the night.
"No tea boys, bad luck", said the Major. But he suggested all take some rest there as they have been walking for 3 hours.
"Sir, this is a tea shop and we can make tea... We will have to break the lock", suggested one soldier.
The
officer was in great dilemma to the unethical suggestion but the
thought of a steaming cup of tea for the tired solders made him to give
the permission.
They were in luck, the place had everything needed to make tea and also packets of biscuits.
The solders had tea & biscuits and were ready for the remaining journey.
The
major thought, they had broken open lock and had tea & biscuits
without the permission of the owner. They're not a band of thieves but
disciplined soldiers.
He
took out a Rs1000/- note from his wallet, placed it on the counter,
pressed under sugar container, so that the owner can see.
The officer was now relieved of his guilt.
He ordered to put the shutter down and proceed.
Three
months passed, they continued to do gallantly in their works and were
lucky not to loose anyone from the group in the intense insurgency
situation.
It was time for another team to replace them.
Soon they were on their way back and stopped at the same tea shop which was open and owner was present in the shop.
The owner an old man with meager resources was very happy to greet 15 customers.
All of them had tea and biscuits.
They talked to the old man about his life and experience specially selling tea at such a remote place.
The old man had many stories to tell, replete with his faith in God.
"Oh, Baba, if God is there, why should He keep you in such poverty ?", commented one of them.
"Do not say like that Sahib ! God actually is there, I got a proof.
3 months ago."
"I
was going through very tough times because my only son had been
severely beaten by terrorist who wanted some information from him which
he did not have.
I had closed my shop to take my son to hospital. Some medicines were to be purchased and I had no money.
No one would give
me loan for fear of the terrorists.
There was no hope, Sahib".
"And that day Sahib, I prayed to God for help. And Sahib, God walked into my shop that day."
"When I returned to my shop, I found lock broken,
I felt I was finished,
I lost whatever little I had.
But
then I saw that God had left Rs 1000/= under the sugar pot.
I can't tell you Sahib what that money was worth that day.
God exists Sahib. He does."
The faith in his eyes were unflinching.
Fifteen pairs of eyes met the eyes of the officer and read the order in his eyes clear and unambiguous, "Keep quiet".
The officer got up and paid the bill.
He hugged the old man and said, "Yes Baba, I know God does exist.
And yes,
the tea was wonderful."
The 15 pairs of eyes did not miss to notice the moisture building up in the eyes of their officer, a rare sight.
The truth is
"YOU" can be GOD to anyone.

The
States Reorganisation Act, 1956 defined boundaries for the states
within India on the basis of languages.[3] The Bombay State that was
formed as a consequence of this act, however, was composed of different
areas where different languages were spoken; Marathi, Gujarati, Kutchi
and Konkani. The Sanyukta Maharashtra Samiti was at the forefront of the
movement to divide the Bombay State into two states; one composed of
areas where people primarily spoke Gujarati and Kutchhi and the other
where people primarily spoke Marathi and Konkani.[4][5]
The
state of Maharashtra and Gujarat were formed as a result of this
movement according to the Bombay Reorganisation Act, 1960 enacted by the
Parliament of India on 25 April 1960. The act came into effect on 1 May
1960,[6] hence the reason of annual celebration.

Every
year the Government of Maharashtra issues a notification declaring the
1st of May to be a public holiday to be celebrated as Maharashtra Day.

jurisdiction of the State and central Government celebrate this day by
