We can feel Doon
I am pleased to inform you that our initiative of making Dehradun a brand and taking its heritage a step beyond has taken a giant leap by releasing this e magazine . Team Doon mozaic is the dream of all the readers across Dehradun . In our reader ’ s survey , there were large number of people who want to know about the heritage and its illustration . The question was obvious and , it ’ s understandable that , if a city is representing itself for “ smart city ” concept , did it really deserve this ? If yes , then what will be the pros and cons of it on our people and culture ? Yes , changes only bring good , but for whom ? This was the biggest question stuck behind our minds . Hence , there is only one solution to it , “ interrogate ”. The moment the capitalization of Dehradun took place , there was utter investments in modernisation of this area . Real estate gave rise to anti socialism in the people , pre capitalisation era didn ’ t need any communities like “ been there , Doon that ” but , now there is a need of such an initiative .
I remember a Doon where there is greenery everywhere , a clean atmosphere with only abstract noise of cricket and beetles remember a Doon which had a empty roads and sugarcane grown over a wide range of area . I remember a Doon which has “ mohollas ” which has harm of social meetings . Though , some areas are still alive with those vibrant colours of ancient Doon but , the immigrant of other states , should respect the aura this city is providing them .
Our initiative is to focus the hidden talents in any sector accept politics has taken a shape in form of this magazine . Our aim to make this magazine a journal on Dehradun is on the way of progress .
