I was a rock music fan from the beginning.........but it took me lot of years to realise that there are number of rock bands in india that are capable of making a mark in the international rock stage.

Second Swadeshi Movement-- Hail India......!!!!!
i am a proud indian..............and i will do anything to increase The greatness of my country.............
U CAN MAKE A HUGE DIFFERENCE TO THE INDIAN ECONOMY BY FOLLOWING FEW SIMPLE STEPS.
Please spare a couple of minutes here… for the sake of India … our country.
Small example,
Before 5 months 1 US $ = IND Rs 36
After 5 months. Now it is 1 CAN $ = IND Rs 50
Do you think US Economy is booming? No, but Indian Economy is Going Down.
Our Economy is in u’r hands. INDIAN economy is in a crisis. Our country like many other ASIAN countries is undergoing a severe economic crunch. Many INDIAN industries are closing down. The INDIAN economy is in a crisis and if we do not take proper steps to control those, we will be in a critical situation. More than 30000 crore rupees of foreign exchange are being siphoned out of our country on products such as cosmetics, snacks, tea, beverages… etc which are grown, produced and consumed here.
A cold drink that costs only 70 / 80 paisa to produce is sold for NINE rupees, and a major chunk of profits from these are sent abroad. This is a serious drain on INDIAN economy.
To protect our own interests we request everybody to use INDIAN products only for next two years. With the rise in petrol prices, if we do not do this, the rupee will devalue further and we will end up paying much more for the same products in the near future.
What you can do about it?
1. Buy only products manufactured by WHOLLY INDIAN COMPANIES.
2. ENROLL as many people as possible for this cause.
Each individual should become a leader for this awareness. This is the only way to save our country from severe economic crisis. You don’t need to give-up your lifestyle. You just need to choose an alternate product. All categories of products are available from WHOLLY INDIAN COMPANIES.

WE ACHIEVED OUR INDEPENDENCE AFTER LOSING MANY LIVES.
THEY DIED PAINFULLY TO ENSURE THAT WE LIVE PEACEFULLY. THE CURRENT TREND IS VERY THREATENING.
MULTINATIONALS CALL IT GLOBALISATION OF INDIAN ECONOMY. FOR INDIANS LIKE YOU AND ME IT IS RECOLONISATION OF INDIA …
THE COLONIST’S LEFT INDIA THEN. BUT THIS TIME THEY WILL MAKE SURE THEY DON’T MAKE ANY MISTAKES.
WHO WOULD LIKE TO LET A” GOOSE THAT LAYS GOLDEN EGGS” SLIP AWAY.
PLEASE REMEMBER: POLITICAL FREEDOM IS USELESS WITHOUT ECONOMIC INDEPENDENCE.
RUSSIA, S.KOREA, MEXICO ……….THE LIST IS VERY LONG!!
LET US LEARN FROM THEIR EXPERIENCE AND FROM OUR HISTORY.
LET US DO THE DUTY OF EVERY TRUE INDIAN.
FINALLY: IT’S OBVIOUS THAT U CAN’T GIVE UP ALL OF THE ITEMS MENTIONED ABOVE,
SO GIVE UP ATLEAST ONE ITEM TO FOR THE SAKE OF OUR COUNTRY.
We would be sending useless forwards to our friends daily.
Instead please forward this mail to all your friends to create awareness.
“LITTLE DROPS MAKE A GREAT OCEAN”
BE INDIAN BUY INDIAN............
DITCH THE FOREIGN GOODS................HAIL INDIA........
