THE ACCET TIMES:

CUBA-The face of revolution

The first thing that comes to mind when we hear the name Cuba is Che Guevera. The other name which comes to our mind is Fidel Castro. But even before that era the Cuba got freedom from Spain and declared independence on 20 May 1902.But Cuba after independence Cuba stuck under Capitalists of America. The Farmers land had been taken away by the Capitalists of America with Govt support. At that time Batista(dictator) was ruling Cuba. This cruelty irritates a student named FIDEL CASTRO and he created his own group to create a revolution against government and was jailed. Later he was released by the Government two years later and he fled all the way to Mexico to plan and execute the revolution in Cuba against government. At that time he met one of the greatest revolutionaries of all time Comrade CHE GUEVERA. Che Guevera along with Castro planned the revolution and sailed with their troops all the way to Cuba. Then they fought with Cuban Army with Guireilla war technique and defeated the Batista in 1959. This was one of the greatest revolutions of all time. Castro became the prime minister of Cuba and Che Guevera became the Head of Cuban National Bank, Medical Department and Educational department. The Castro government established the Communist form of Government to ensure every citizens gets everything as they are interested in Marxist-Lenin policy. In Cuba every citizen have free education and free medical facilities. This was due to the reforms inutaited by CHE GUEVERA. Cuba’s literacy rate now is above 99%and Cuba is one of the Countries with leading medical facilities. These all credits goes to only one man who is none other than CHE GUEVERA. Now Cuba is helping all other countries which are affected by Corona virus. Even the developed countries struggle to manage the pandemic but this small island nation is helping the whole world with its Trained Doctors since the Cuba has the least doctors to people ratio which makes them one of the outstanding counties in the World in Medicine.Thus the COMMUNISM teached Cuba to think that all the people around the world are their brothers and sisters.Cuba has no private  educational institutions and hospitals and all are owned by the government as they don’t want business in people’s basic necessities. Thus Cuba stands as a great example of how the government should be. All the credits goes to Che and Castro.

In Che’s  cemetry it is quoted that

“YOU WILL LIVE FOREVER CHE”

Thus he is living in all the Cuban doctors who are fighting Corona virus all over the world.

Stay home! Stay safe!

IRFFAN KHAN:

2020 is not one of the greatest years as we all expected! It is heading opposite to that of what we all thought! It didn't wipe everyone on a single day with Tsunami or Earthquake. It's playing its own innings slowly and steadily, wiping people day by day. Natural deaths, accidents and great Corona deaths! 2020 took off Kobe Bryant(Basketball player), Gene Deitch and thousand of lives across the globe. Sadly, Irrfan Khan joined them on 29.04.2020! Irrfan, one of India's beloved stars who had achieved a lot died aged 53.The man who had tasted Hollywood industry with his amazing talent suffered from neuroendocrine tumour from 2018.He was admitted at the hospital for colon infection and it took him away! His career spanned over 30 years and earned him a Padma Shri, National award, Asian Film Award and four Filmfares. From the words of his colleagues, it seems that he is a man of words, calm and composed. Although Khan was never a superstar who starred in big-budget blockbuster movies, he had a quiet, noticeable presence cultivated over the course of several years while appearing in a wide array of roles in movies that sometimes tackled subjects way ahead of their times. He struggled a lot to reach the top! He fought every bit of his life and ended up being a great inspiration for the people who look up to him. Rest in Peace, Mr.Irrfan Khan!
