We might be the creation of the situation
but when given a chance if we blow up our chance to change the situation then
we don’t deserve to blame our situation. Despite of the democracy, we've always
kept grumbling over the situations of the drowning country whether
economically, morally or in any other way. While attending one class, a professor
who’s been to other countries like USA and China, talked about the situation
there, how people roam round freely at night without the fear of being looted,
girls dress the way they want. He asked to the whole class ‘how long will our
country take to reach to the position’? Nobody had the answer. He is few of
them who look concerned about the situation of our country and make an effort
to bring change by one way or other.
He said ‘we need more
Kejriwals in our country’. I strongly agree with him but I fear the fate which
Kejriwal is going to meet, (if we believe the survey of the news channel which
I saw yesterday in the evening) I don’t
know how many Kejriwal will dare to even think of standing against the
democratically elected autocrats. According to that survey Aam Aadmi Party is
going to secure only 8 seats. A shudder
went through my head to toe, thinking of the efforts put by Kejriwal, thousands
of his supporters and all those families (even if they are contributing just Rs
10 as a donation to the party) all going to waste. When at the same time Mrs.
Sheila Dikshit is wasting a huge amount of public money (which was meant for
developmental works) on putting glittering posters fooling the public, like a
poster read ‘Delhi has the largest fleet of CNG buses in the world, Development
is evident here’. If she will come and tell it to my co-commuters from Palam in
the route 727 in the morning rush hour and I am sure they will beat her to
death. They never say that income earned by public authorities and government
from the state of Delhi could be enough to take care of the whole country if
spent wisely.
India is a democratic country but democracy
doesn't do any good here, if it would be doing well, then there wouldn't be any
person everywhere cursing politicians. Democracy works for the country where
almost every person is wise and rational in making decisions. People here are
greed-driven, you just need to show them piece of paper with the picture of
Gandhiji. I hope you know what I am talking about. Besides that, people always
complain that they didn't have any choice. Speaking broadly, the candidates
which were nominated by parties previously weren't always honest. People did
have to choose any one. That’s why many people chose to maintain distance from
politics and political parties but when for the first time they are getting the
chance to elect honest candidates. They may believe that if elected, whatever
they’ll do they will never be corrupt and if in any case they get corrupted
they cannot get away with it.
My Appeal to the people of India (presently to the residents of Delhi),
Don’t blow this chance otherwise it will become your last chance.
