Republic Day Special
Mera Bali
Shekhawati is located in
North Rajasthan comprising districts like Jhunjhunu, Sikar, Churu, and parts of Nagaur and Jaipur. History has it that in the 17th to 19th centuries, Marwari merchants constructed these grand havelis in the Shekhawati
region. Steeped in wealth and affluence, these merchants got busy outdoing
others in building more grand edifices - homes, temples, step wells which were
richly decorated both inside and outside with painted murals. It is bounded on
the northwest by the Jangladesh region, on the northeast by Haryana, on the east by Mewat, on the southeast by Dhundhar, on the south by Ajmer, and on the southwest by the Marwar region. Its area is 13784 square kilometers. The inhabitants of
Shekhawati are considered brave, sacrificing and hard working people.
Shekhawati was first
mentioned in the book Bankidas ki Khyat. Contemporary of Bankidas was
Colonel W.S.Gardener, who used the word Shekhawati in the year 1803. Later
Colonel James Tod wrote the first history of Shekhawati. The term Shekhawati was
used frequently in Vamsh Bhaskar. This suggests that the term Shekhawati
came in use about two and half centuries ago. Shekhawati is named after Rao
Shekha Shekhawati is in the Thar Desert of Rajasthan, and has special importance in the history of India.
Shekhawati is a dialect of the Rajasthani language and is spoken by about three million speakers in the Churu, Jhunjhunu, and Sikar districts of Rajasthan. Even though it is a very important
dialect from the grammatical and literary points of view, very little work is
carried out on it. In 2001 a descriptive compendium of the grammar of
Shekhawati was published. Shekhawati, like the Bagri dialect of Ganganagar and
Hanumangarh districts, has a parallel lexicon which makes it very rich from the
lexicographical point of view. Word order is typically SOV and there is an existence of implosives. The presence of high tone at suprasegmental level classifies it with other dialects of Rajasthani. It has contributed a lot to the development of Rajasthani
language and linguistics.
Many historians have
considered this region included in the Matsya Kingdom. Rigveda also provides certain evidences in this matter. Manusmriti has called this land as 'Brahmrishi Desha'.Shekhawati region was
included in 'marukantar desha' up to Ramayana period. Out of 16 mahajanapadas prior to Buddha, only two janapadas, namely Avanti and the Kingdom of Virata were counted in Rajasthan area. This region was also influenced
by Avanti but later on Nandas of Magadha defeated Avanti. Historians believe that Mauryas obtained the Rajasthan from Nandas.
ALUMNI
Dhruv Rajpurohit / Batch
2003 visited the School on the occasion of Republic Day. He was invited to
speak a few words of motivation to the students.
Keynote Speaker Mr. Dhruv Singh Rajpurohit’s Speech
I am Dhruv Rajpurohit.
Dear Madam Principal, all the teachers,
staff members and fellow students, thank you for giving me the
opportunity to speak in front of you all today. I promise I'll keep it short
and simple and hopefully won’t bore you too much. First, let me
congratulate all of you gathered here today, a very pleasant and Happy
Republic Day. As I stand here today, I remember the time when I was a student
at The Fabindia School from 1996-2003. I left in 2003 to further study
abroad in the USA.
I was fortunate to be a part of The Fabindia School
because this school instilled in me all the qualities and challenges
of life to be successful in the future. I want to thank all of my teachers for
helping me get to where I am today. All of you students, I will tell you
today that use this opportunity and education to better yourself and go further
in life than you would love over imagined. In this atmosphere I received
all guidance necessary to tackle whatever obstacle that may arise in the
future but you must take the initiative yourself by giving your best effort and
using your time wisely.
Become
a good student, be a good listener, be a respectful classmate, be curious and
most important always be willing to work hard for what you want. When I was a
student of your age my dream was to become a doctor. I made sure that I did
everything I could to make it come true; it was never easy and it will never be
easy if you have a similar dream. There were times when I thought I wasn't good
enough, or that I will never get into medical school, or never pass a test. One
thing kept me going and then t was motivated. I was motivated to be successful,
and would never accept failure as a result.
I
knew in my heart that if I worked hard, studied more, slept less, that one day
I will make my dream come true that I had when I was a child. The point is that
once you realize your dream and work hard for it, it will come true. Don't
think you're not good enough or you can't do it or let other people discourage
you. Work hard even if you have to sacrifice a lot of things because those who
never give up never lose. I have no doubt that you all can accomplish your
dreams if you give your best effort, work hard and remain motivated.
I
would like to end this speech with my favourite quote by Abdul Kalam;
"Sapne
wo nahi jo neend mein aaye, sapne wo hain jinhe pure kiye bina neend nahi
aaye"

निराला देश भारत
जहाँ जलते हैं एकता के दीप ,
जहाँ लोग रहते हैं हमेशा एक दुसरे समीप ,
वह भारत देश हैं निराला।।
जहाँ न कोई हिन्दू न कोई मुस्लिम ,
न कोई सिक्ख न कोई ईसाई ,
हैं तो सिर्फ भारतीय ,
वह भारत देश हैं निराला।।
जहाँ हैं दिवाली और होली ,
हैं ईद और लोढ़ी ,
वह भारत देश हैं निराला।।
जहाँ औरतें भी मर्दो के साथ कंधे से कन्धा
मिलकर करती हैं काम ,
जहाँ प्यार का नहीं हैं कोई दाम ,
वह भारत देश हैं निराला।।
जहाँ एक चायवाला उठाता हैं पुरे देश का बोझ ,
जहाँ मर -मर के भी लोग जी लेते हैं हर रोज़ ,
वह भारत देश हैं निराला।।

India Our Motherland
I am your Motherland
I was under the rule of Britishers.
My children came
forward
And fought for me.
Many went to
jail, many sacrificed their lives,
Many shed their
blood, just to save my life.
They made me
independent on 15th August 1947 and
Celebrate it
as “INDEPENDENCE DAY”.
The
constitution was set up on 26 January 1950
which you
celebrate as “REPUBLIC DAY”.
SO LONG LIVE
