Respected Friends at IAC,
To say the least, we seem to be running a democracy very loosely.
The most tragic and an unbelievable part, that clearly shows up is, to what end ? !
The MPs' productivity, per session wise or annually shoots "way up", on a "tarazoo"
-- very light, empty, compared to the salaries/allowances and other goodies, apart
from the pension, health care, travel, etc. -- yet they all appear to be dis-satisfied !
How many of them have cases hanging a-fire on account of criminality or other such
illegal acts ?
Its great to have gained freedom, under the leadership of a Gandhi ji or a Vinobha,
regardless of the progress we may have made, it is sad and tragic that a different
kind of "values" and materialism has taken over. with a laid back approach with no
productivity. Compared to those who fight for us at the borders or against the ravages
of Nature or man-made disasters, the contribution of our law makers or the bureaucracy,
on one hand remains very low, and on the other hand they keep looking to grab more !
This so-called freedom and democracy, loaded with corruption, is NOT really worth what
we will bequeath our children and society. Low nutrition, sordid sanitation, pollution, foul
air, low gender issues, massive inflation, non-existent health care except for the rich, very
low education standards for the poor, tribals, the minorities and caste-riddled society --
neither the parliamentarians or the legislative authorities and the babu-giri is likely to
deliver. It all appears beyond their ability to implement the reforms our India needs, starting
with the Police, et al. Are we giving up...i do not have an answer being 82 now.
Hope, hard work & optimistic approach does deliver.
Where is it currently now, does anyone know ?
Best wishes for 2016 with the hope that we repent, change and do better...
