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 profession, 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.

Happy to help !!!
India, my fabulous country, born out of the culture of the sharing and the caring not only at the international front but also at family level. India on the international front has always been a helping hand for its neighbors and friends so are its local inhabitants.
Happiness and sweets are shared not only on Diwali or Id but at localized gatherings too like Kitty parties and family gathering. On close observation on these gatherings one will definitely find this exchanging symptom. Moms and aunts do keep exchanging saris and suits; so that they can flaunt their clothing collection. To some extend I guess it gives them the opportunity to proudly bitch about the other female. It keeps them so engrossed that they actually prepare a list of the kind of saris she wore on that last particular event.
A similar incident occurred last week when my mom had to go in her kitty party and as usual her all sari collection was used up. Dull and pale she had no idea what to wear for the event. Then suddenly my maternal aunt called in up to tell about her recent purchasing of crockery. It reminded my mom of the saris my aunt bought last week. She was so jubilant of the thought of borrowing that she just jumped in to ask for the dress. And to her much expectation she found the one.
This sharing business is so real and practical that people specially aunts find it easy to relate and work upon. They would borrow clothes, accessories and other household stuffs to flaunt as their own in front of guests or in parties as the case may be. They have this smart business of lending out unwanted and extra stuff that usually comes in the form of gifts, depending upon this very characteristic of the ‘kind’ of the person / party is on the other side is.

certainly it remind me of the the Vodafone ad - Happy to help!!!

Job of ordinary man ?
Really sometimes i think! do our generation has time to actually ponder over things that matter to our country. Country when i say in particular our nation, India.
I sometimes feel that the root cause of all these problem is the MNC culture that had in someway benefited our country but also had derooted us from Indian culture. People really are left with no time to actually sit together, chat and make some logical debates.
I wonder if in today's world Gandhiji would have been here how would he had gathered masses. Probably the answer is media. Today media has so much penetration into our society that it is difficult for everyone to stay aloof of its impact. Convergence of media has gifted us with an attractive force through a new medium of debate and forums. Thanks to the Blogging and the social networking phenomenon which has given us the space and shape to express our thoughts.
For this process I agree with my faculty that 'social networking in and social gathering out'. But will we really be able to think and form an opinion the way it used be in past times?
Students at colleges hardly think about the classes and no one takes interest in reading newspapers, postgraduates at colleges think about either higher education or dream of getting placed in top media houses, professionals at work space think about promotion or probably marriage, recently became mom and dads think about securing their new born child's future, once their children grow up they think about their marriages and the cycle goes on......
Hello! where is our country in this whole circle? Is really consideration about our country a job of intellectuals and politicians? Where is the contribution of the ordinary single man in opinion formation? Think about it because otherwise we have no right to crib over any situation!
