Ideological Bankruptcy and India

Wish you all a very happy Independence day….!!!

Sixty four long years. More than a life span of an average Indian. The Doordarshan will play some patriotic songs, PM will hoist the flag will repeat the same speech about the how government is working for the common man, our growth, the govt. schemes for poor people and so on so forth. We all know nothing of that is true but we will still listen. All news channels cover the flag hoisting ceremony and debate about PM speech. Come 16^th August we will forget about our nation. Patriotism for us has become an enjoyment and holiday twice in year. We remember our nation only on 15^th August and 26^th January.

We Indians have become ideologically and intellectually bankrupt. The financial bankruptcy that US and Europe is facing can be easily tackled as they have still not become ideological bankrupt. People in those countries stand for their rights, they are concerned for their country; they care for their country so they will do everything to come out the financial crises. We as Indians have shown no sign of this kind our concern in last sixty years. There is enough of evidence to show that we have reached a situation where we just do not care for our nation. Every individual including me are responsible for the state of our nation today.

Let me give certain situations to explain my point of Ideological and Intellectual Bankruptcy

In last 64 years we have not been able to reduce poverty. In fact all the growth stories talk about no of billionaires and millionaires but not but how much poverty reduction.

In 1947 we had sex ratio of about 990 females per 1000 males, as per 2011 census it stands at 940 females per 1000 males. Clear decline in our ideological and value quotient. We are a culture where we worship woman as Devi. We seems to have forgotten that.

64 years and not been able to provide proper healthcare facilities to common man. Just week before we saw a case wherein people are forced to sleep in toilets at major hospital in Delhi because they did not have money to pay for facility.

Infrastructure is a bottleneck for growth, we know that but we are still not connected to every village by road. Everyday we are building only about 4 kms of road which will take another 50 years for completion of road network. We are facing acute power deficit. Lakhs of villages face more than 12 hours of average power cut.

In 1947 our literacy rate was 14% today it is 74.20%, in 64 years we could not even achieve primary education to all in our nation. We have spent thousands of crore rupees for the same. It shows we are only good at planning and not execution. May be we do not want everyone to be educated.

The country is facing inflation more than 7 % since last 2 and half years. We are supposed to have economist prime minister and the party in power claims to be working for the common man of this nation. What we got is 8 to 9 deadlines set by Government to bring inflation down, which never became the reality. We are supposed to have great brains in the world but none of the issues concerning the common man are solved.

We Indians still believe in dynastic politics and kept electing election after election same politicians, their relative, sons, daughters, in laws and the list is never ending.

We are a democracy but we Indians still treat our politicians are kings, where as are they are our servants.

We have never raised our voice against anything exception was time of emergency. We are basically become insensitive to every issue whether it is corruption, failure of governance or our fundamental rights.

I do not remember a protest against the issue that matter to us like terrorism.

India must have had most number of terror attacks than any other country in last 64 years. We are still keeping quite and take a pride in calling ourselves resilient, May be one candle march to offer condolences to the families who lost their beloved and over.

We have never got angry for anything.

When some like Anna Hazare, Kiran Bedi start some movement we still watch it as spectator and never think of participating.

If we browse social networking sites you will find more comments discouraging these movements, raising doubts about the success of these movements. Sadly the youngster of the nation saying that. How can we raise doubt about success when we never tried these methods of change?

It is not that nothing has happened good in India but then you need to understand that there is law of averages. Some good has to happen.

We do not even care to exercise our fundamental right to vote. In fact I feel it is our duty. We enjoy the Election Day as one more holiday.

We never believed in giving tax for the development. Every time we think of evading tax. That has created black economy. Most no of people who kept their money in swiss banks are Indians. We never ask for receipt of the money we pay to the service providers whether it is retailer, goldsmith and so on. Our only endeavor is to make sure that we do not have to pay legitimate tax.

The insurance schemes are sold in India in the name of saving tax not for life security, this is the reflection of out mentality of tax saving or tax evasion.

The previous generations have failed in giving us the idols that we should look at. This puts added responsibility on us not to make the same mistake as that of our predecessors.

These are just few things but enough evidence to prove that we have become insensitive to our own problems, we do not want to fight or we follow no ideology except the ideology of ignorance? Are we not capable of thinking and take right decisions?

Our methods have found no solution to our problems, and we have run out of ideas to find new ways to tackle the problems. A major concern of inflation bothering common man has not been to able to solved for last 3 years given the fact that we have an eminent economist as our PM.

We as nation have never registered our protest or showed our displeasure even on the issues that affect us.

Is this not ideological and intellectual bankruptcy?

We have to start all over against let us pledge that we will become catalyst for change and really transform the nation for ourselves only.

Let us not give chance to ourselves to crib, let us do it. Let us achieve real independence from corruption, dynastic politic, terrorism and all evils that are stopping us to be Incredible India.

Let us not forget scarifies made my people who lost their lives to make us see free India.

Join Anna Hazare’s anti corruption movement and let these movements continue till we really feel that we have become Incredible India and Incorruptible India.

Proud to be Incorruptible and Incredible India

Reality of Govt Lokpal Bill

Writing a blog after almost a year and writing for a cause. Support for the Lokpal bill proposed by team Anna, Arving Kejariwal, Kiran Bedi.

Today after drama of having joint lokpal committee UPA govt finally tabled the bill in parliament. I said drama of having joint drafting committee because even without that committee we would have got the same lokpal bill. Govt has done what it wanted to do. A poor, toothless lokpal bill and make a joke of the democracy and public. So tempted to call this bill as jokpal bill.

Let us understand why we need the bill and how can we have control on corruption after the strong lokpal.

1. We all agree that our Incredible India has actually Corrupt India. A farmer wants to get 7/12 property extract he has to pay bribe to get it, need a bed in govt hospital pay for it, pay to file FIR, pay to get driving licence, pay to get cast certificate, pay more that the price to get ration on your ration card, even pay to get death certificate. Corruption has become a painful reality for common man if India. From PM to peon in Gram Panchayat office every one is corrupt.

2. Why no action against anyone, the reason is very simple; we do not have Independent inquiry and prosecution agency. All agencies that we have like CBI, Police, CID or even Special investigation teams all are puppets in the hand of govt. So everyone knows nothing is going to happen. All corrupt people have got natural immunity.

3. If we want to really make India incorruptible and thereby Incredible we need a very strong independent agency to look into all level of corruption cases from village to Delhi. Lokpal is a solution to the problem

4. Lokpal is not one person but it is panel of 11 members selected by independent panel every eminent personalities of India which includes all sections of society.

5. Today we have CBI's anti corruption wing, after lokpal that wing should come in under lokpal so that instead of two agencies it will be just one agency to deal with corruption cases. So that the common man knows whom to complaint for corruption cases.

6. As mentioned earlier from PM to peon in Gram Panchayat office everyone will come under scanner of Lokpal which includes judiciary also. Any complaint files against anyone PM, Ministers, MPs, MLAs, MLCs, Govt officiasl, judges; in short anyone will be investigated and prosecuted by Lokpal.

7. Person who files complaint will get security cover so that more and more people come forward and dare to fight against corruption.

8. Lokpal should have powers to dismiss govt officials and also recover loses from the guilty ones if proven guity. Imagine 1.76L cr can be recovered from A Raja, 70000 Cr can be recovered from Kamadi and many more.

Instead making all that mentioned above possible what Govt has proposed is a weak advisory nature Lokpal bill who is not independent. Let me explain it point by point

1. Prime ministers (only after demetting the office), CM's, Judges of any level, Low cadre govt officials do not come under lokpal. Only Group A Govt officials come under lokpal. So common mans worries are still unaswered. He still has to pay for ration card, cast certificate, death certificate. Who will benefit? The answer is no one.

2. As per govt bill Lokpal is elected by majority of people seating in Government. So naturally it will be puppet in the hands of Govt. as that of CBI today. How can it be independent agency?

3. CBI's anti corruption wing will continue working as it is it will not be under Lokpal. So technically you have two agencies for the same purpose. How will decide which case or scam will be investigated by whom? Answer not known in present lokpal bill.

4. Lokpal is just investigation agency can not prosecute the accuse as per Govt. draft that means it is just advisory in nature can not take action against the corrupt. What the use of such Lokpal?

5. Person filling complaint if found false complaint will be jailed for two years on the other hand the corrupt person will get three changes prove himself guilty. Whom are they trying to save?

6. Lokpal can only investigate and not prosecute. In this case how is it different from the existing agencies dealing such cases.

Now the youth of the country must decided who they want to support to. Anna Hazare, Arvind Kejariwal, Kiran Bedi and many more are there to guide us let us take the advantage and make our nation

Incorruptible India... Incredible India
