INDIA, a new upcoming super power.Sorry! is that real.But somewhere we all see it as a dream.I condemn the statement because of the kind of the state of affairs we are in.Great round of applause for our Politicians who are really keen on projecting India a secular, democratic,republic, economic country on the international front.
As far as I remember, our constitutional framer-forefathers developed our country democratic structure on the three pillars of democracy-Executive, Legislature, Judiciary. Fourth one as unsaid -Media ,also holds the task of now projecting a magnificent picture among our "foreign friends".
Thanks but no thanks!
Executive,the very branch which has been given the task of executing all the programmes, policies,initiatives etc.are implementing laws and regulations formed by the legislature branch very efficiently. So efficiently that terrorists like Afzal Guru has not been sentenced till date even after Supreme court pronouncing him guilty.So efficiently that about 34% of India still lives in malnutrition.So efficiently that 80% of the educated India lives below Rs. 2700/- of earnings per month.So efficiently that in last 10 months India saw 83 bomb blast all over the country.
Legistature has always been working so efficiently that in last 20 years there has been no stringent laws made to deal with terrorism.Not even that there had been no provision made to get the Federal investigation done in such cases.So efficient that police reforms are still pending.Poor hawaldars! bechare! jab samne terrorist gun se fire kara hota hai toh aap lathi se uska samna karte hain.So efficient that there is no Uniform Civil Code of law for Secular India.So efficient that Women Reservation Bill, in, India for Equality is still pending.So efficient that out of some 536 MP's about 348 MP's are having bad name and criminal offenses charges registered against them. Sorry let me ask - politician sir do you need anything more than money, fame, power, girls,oil reserves, bank accounts? We Indian can provide you .We know it is hard to find "GREAT PATRIOTS" like you!
Judiciary our third foundation stone has also worked so efficiently to maintain the law and order in the country that about 14,000 cases are still pending in our courts.The names goes on increasing,the list goes on multiplying.For every law in our country there is way to break it out.Fast Track Courts were to be made in order to resolve cases fast in our country but they are also under the influence of the rich and the money class.So efficient are our lawyers like R.K.Sharma who were fighting for the rights of Nanda's,another money spoilt brat.So efficient that our judicial gurus are involved in the bribary cases.
These 3 pillars of our democracy on which our forefathers laid our constitution has begun to shamble.Politicians are involved everywherer and how now media has also forgotten its principles. No doubt, education in journalism and education/work experienced gained in the pofession, the duo cannot match anywhere. There is serious dearth of good journalists.Media has forgotten the ethics which are ATLEAST expected out of them to follow. But what the scenario now!
Our economy has become capitalists plus materialistic.
Elite class used to trust NDTV for its comprehensive and correct ethical reporting. But sorry after the Mumbai terror attack, the series of the unethical reporting done by media has led the hopes of the lay man/ common man down.So what do you think Should be done? Are we really to become a superpower? Thank you but this title suites US only or say upcoming global power China wherein atleast people have the faith in government.Contention of the fact that whom so ever they will choose to govern will prove beneficial to them and their country.

Say no to crackers on Diwali, save kids from misery

DIWALI IS round the corner and everyone is busy preparing a welcome for Goddess Lakshmi in their homes. They are cleaning up their homes, white-washing, painting, buying new clothes and of course, stocking deadly crackers. Crackers are like the spice of Diwali without which the our food would taste bland.
But have you ever thought where do these crackers come from or who makes them?
We all agree to this statement that no poor child chooses to work in firework factories or take up other horrifying work in coal mines by will but they are either forced by people or destiny itself. They work in congested, dusty and horrifying environment that severely impair their health. The young innocent children are considered as the source of cheap labour by their bosses. Children also give more output than input and that also without creating any fuss. They can be easily manipulated into overworking and paid less.
They work in difficult environment for long hours as compared to adults. They face both verbal and sexual abuse. We feel pity for them but after some time we move on in our lives.
It is really difficult to understand how people can be more sensitive to their own children and totally insensitive to other’s children. Just see your children in place of them and then you would realise how painful it gets.
Not only Goddess Lakshmi but do you think any God of any religion would be actually happy about this idea of celebration that involves misery for children.
Before buying crackers this year just think that we may be contributing to their exploitation by buying products and services, which actually involves young children. This is not the real picture of true India where the future of it is itself so brutally moulded.
I would like to salute the spirit of those people who voluntary don’t burn crackers and who would pledge not to burn crackers after reading this article. Children are like soon to be made earthen pots that will be moulded the way we want them to. We would surely not like to see India’s future moulded this way, as this way we are only teaching them to be slaves.

Really! Children have become self-independent; after all they now want to have a separate home. Distinguish identity, autonomous control, independent culture and their own land, their demands are quite high, though. Sadly, they also long to have a no-interference guarantee from their mother. Effacing their mother tongue use, they even want to talk in their own language. Pursue their own interests and do all things. The worst part is that the Indian children are egged on by few poor Indian mindsets. Though all of them don’t want it, but the influence of mighty people is so high that they give away to big decisions. Doesn’t this aptly explain the current situation India is going through? Protests, terror, rebel in Assam, Andhra pradesh and J &K aptly questions Indian mentality. The half-joined bandwagon by Maharashtra also wants its residents to speak only Marathi. At least this is what a political nobody, Raj Thackeray wishes to propagate. According to him, if we reside in Bengal, we should better speak Bengali, Assam, should ideally speak Assamese and while in Gujrat, please speak Gujarati. His profound pro-marathi Sentiments negates the requirement of Hindi in Maharashtra.
Politicians like these are actually worsening the Indian Mentality, breaking people in different groups, thereby striving hard to cause a great Indian Divide. Speaking Hindi is our religion, our culture; practically it is our national language. Now, do we have to miserly use it, depending on the place we reside in? The cutting comments on the Biharis made few months ago, well suggest that Indian people are born through different mothers and hence should go back to their own mom. Is this the same Indian culture we all are born with? Respect for mankind, admiration for other religion, values and ethics seems to have wiped out of the Indian minds by some filthy and corrupt politicians. Immoral people and their inhumane acts are constantly pricking the Indian fabric, leaving us wondered whether the situation would ever get better.
When will people stop fighting over miscreant acts and live peacefully. Think about it, it is our own country and we are impelled to live our own life on the terms of other people. Our ancestors gave their blood to this country, their sacrifices are unforgettable and so are their values and beliefs, but who thought the coming generations would take their efforts to the drain. Forget foreign terror outfits, the biggest threat to India is from its own rabble-rouser politicians. Therefore, the reigns of the Indian Kingdom should be in the hands of young, educated and civilized people.
