		Said Fate: "O gifted one, I have a tryst with you, somewhere in later years." Said Destiny: "Here, I do perceive an error, your tryst is with him now -- mine yet to be." And so he travels through the years, keeping his tryst with Destiny.

	Economic freedom from poverty (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		This is one day in the year when TERI staff and their families, including children, get together not only to salute the national flag but to celebrate an event that most Indians appear to have forgotten the significance of.
		Pandit Nehru, the country’s first Prime Minister, rightly invoked the image of the country’s tryst with destiny when independence was granted, but a much bigger expectation now lies in attaining economic freedom from the problems that have afflicted Indian society and particularly the poor for so long.
		The intolerance of current trends has found protest and expression at the international level, but it would be naive to believe that we at the national level would remain insulated to the anger that widespread poverty is likely to foster in the years ahead.

		That breathtaking moment in Wolpert's life set the stage for the remainder of his career, the last 39 years of which he has spent as a UCLA history professor.
		Most recently, Wolpert earned rave reviews for Nehru: A Tryst with Destiny (1996: Oxnard University Press), which sheds new light on the complex character of India's first prime minister and second-most important 20th century leader.
		Wolpert began his journey into Indian history immediately after his experience in Bombay, when he had trouble reconciling the fact that a Hindu nation's spiritual leader had been felled by a "devout Hindu." In his search for answers, he began to explore the recent history of India, which had just emerged as a nation-state.

		As a result, in Nehru’s India they could hardly feel having made a tryst with destiny after they lost everything in Pakistan: hearth, home, own folk and ancestral villages where their roots lay too deep.
		If Bollywood and Tollywood have revolved against the “tryst with destiny” made at the stroke of midnight on August 15, 1947 there are reasons for it.

	The Telegraph - Calcutta : Opinion
		Or think again of Nehru’s speech on the midnight of August 14-15: “Long years ago we made a tryst with destiny” Nehru spoke for India that morning, but one would like to think that he was much too sensitive not to have noted the contradictions embedded in the choice of that pronoun, “we”.
		There are remarkable similarities between the situation facing the new prime minister and the one that was faced by India’s first prime minister, Singh’s hero and role model, when he made his tryst with destiny.
		There are communal wounds to be healed, there is an air of uncertainty and threat that has to be dispelled, confidence has to be instilled, India’s position in world affairs has to be reaffirmed, the promise to eradicate inequalities in society restated and India’s commitment to democracy, against all odds, has to be reiterated.

		One-sixth of humanity, no less, hugely diverse and much of it poor, emerges from a history of colonisation and exploitation; a history of mesmerising design and complexity, riches and war and want.
		Recovering from the trauma of Partition and fuelled by a strong collective sense of destiny, it sets itself a clear agenda for development, aiming to improve the lot of every citizen and to become an influential voice in the world.
		Then, most remarkably, it opts to achieve this not through any oligarchy-dictated short cut, but through an elaborate and highly inclusive process of democracy in which every individual, rich or poor, educated or illiterate, has a say.

		His followers included the great ‘Jawaharlal Nehru’ and ‘Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel’ who were already among the young leaders of the INC. It was this lot of great men that took India on a great ride towards that ‘tryst with destiny’ and gave birth to the largest democracy in the World.
