Will you be my Valentine?

-


On this auspicious day around the world, flowers, chocolates and gifts are exchanged in the name of St. Valentines between the loved ones. But who is St. Valentine and what is the history behind the Valentine’s Day? We are all busy building up new relationships and ending them when we want. Relationship is a very strong word and it’s not just mere a word, it’s the faith between two people. It’s a kind of a feeling that the couple experience between them.


“Will you be my Valentine?



This phrase is often asked to those with whom we are either already in a relationship or with whom we want to grow old with, but never tried to realize its value and the real sense behind these powerful words.


So, here the story goes like this:



It’s a story of 300 AD, when Rome was known to be the most powerful region in the world. Claudius-2 was the king of Rome at that time and was known for his rude and cruel behavior. He was a fast developing king who was busy extending the area of his rein all around the world. King Claudius-2 was a calculative and a sharp person, so with his analysis and research he found that a single Male youth is far more powerful than the married male, this made him have a thought to make a new rule for his kingdom.

So, finally king Claudius-2 came up with a decision that no unmarried youth under his leadership would be allowed to marry. This started a series of protest and rallies against him.


St. Valentine




There was a priest. He was against his decision and hence started organizing marriages without the consent of the king. Soon the Claudius 2 heard about him and St. Valentine was arrested and was put behind the bars. The daughter of the jailer admired him and visited him frequently in the jail. Soon they started to develop feeling for each other and in no time they were in love.


Then Why 14th Feb?



St. Valentine, a genuine person and with his feeling for love, was tied to the gibbet and burned to death on 14th Feb. Before he was executed, he wrote a letter for her beloved and the love letter consisted of a blank page with only 3 words written at the bottom-
“From Your Valentine”

St. Valentine left this world leaving a strong message of love.
This made the public realize the true power of love and they started their protest against the king. The pious love which was given by Valentine is remembered even today and in his remembrance the loved one’s quote

“WILL YOU BE MY VALENTINE?”

A total of 6 submarines are to be delivered under the project-75 and INS karanj is the 3 rd one. The first among the six was INS Kalvari which was scheduled to be commissioned before 2012, but due to some unknown reasons, it was commissioned late on December 2017. Next comes the INS Kandheri, which was commissioned in the Indian Navy on the staring week of January and now on 31 st of Jan, we have INS Karanj which is earlier scheduled to be commissioned in the Indian Navy in 2012. One interesting fact about all the six Submarines is that the first four of them will not have any “AIR PROPULSION SYSTEM” whereas the rest two will be equipped with an Air Propulsion System. Air Propulsion system basically enhances the capacity of a submarine to stay under water ...
