When the ropedriven fan stopped and the wind of slavery stopped The slaves who provided the air stopped breathing, when technology pressed the button! The British came, the wind of slavery blew When the British set foot on the land of the Indian subcontinent, they not only snatched the land, but also started blowing the air at will! Yes, this is not poetry, but a bitter truth when the British took offtheir shoes in the mansions of Delhi, Lucknow, Lahore and Bombay, large cloth fans hangingfrom the ceiling would start swinging and the ones swinging them would be deaf anddumb slaves, who would lie on the floor and pull the ropes with their feet. These servants were not slaves, but silent fan operators! The British used to say: > We want air not ears! That's why they kept deaf and dumb servants, so that they couldn't hear or speak just keep moving! Technology put an end to slavery Then came the era of light bulbs, motors, and buttons! And the day also came when the slaves left their ropes and flew into the air and the electric fan started laughing from the ceiling as if saying: > Now I will provide air without any slaves! The British left, the fans remained, but the ropes of these fans hung as questions on the wall of time. Interface: Slavery is not just the name of the chain Sometimes the rope is also a symbol of slavery! Written by: Professor Faisal Ghafoor (MPhil History) Chili Spice Scene Think! A white Englishman sits with a drink in his hand, a carpet under his feet, a dancer dancing in front of him, and a fan swaying above under whicha servant lying on the ground is pulling a rope drenched in sweat Is thisthe civilization that the West prides itself on? Is this the civilization that some people in the subcontinent still consider fashionable? The slap of technology Today, when we turn on the air conditioner or operate the fan remotely, stop for a moment and think This is not just a convenience, it is a sign of freedom! Technology has freed us from the ropes of slavery. Fans are still running, but now their strings are not tied to a human body, but to the necks of machines. Conclusion: The fan is the same, the heat is the same, the ceiling is the same The only change is the system! Where dumb slaves used to provide air, now silent machines work. The only difference is that now a human sits under the fan, and there is no slavery above there is electricity.
