Well.... I was feeling bored..... there are 10 members online and 2 new threads......
I have been feeling damn depressed abt the state of our country..... I guess this must have been evident in some of my posts......
I mean, our country is going nowhere. Don't get me wrong. I love India. I would love to see it move forward. But what I feel bad is that in spite of we being so highly advanced in the field of technology and all that, in a way our country is moving backwards...
See the corruption in our country. People lile Lalu Prasad Yadav become big shot ministers. I mean does Lalu look like a person who is capable of handling such an important ministry like the Railways ??? And what crap abt cool drinks like Coke and Fanta being banned..... No one has folllowed this rule(AFAIK) but still... even thinking of enforcing this rule shows how stupid he is.
And the worst part is that he is still elected to the govt. what are the people in Bihar doing?? What are people throughout the country doing?? Why do we elect such people to the government???
L K advani goes to Pakistan and makes a fool of himself. I am not judging Jinnah here(maybe I should start another thread for that :bleh: ) but what Advani did went against the basic ideology of his party. The party which he has created along with some others. The party which would look incomplete without him. What was he thinking??
He betrayed the trust of millions of Hindus who back the Sangh Parivar to it's fullest(I DO NOT. I personally think they are all crooks and should be hanged by their b@!!$).
and then we have Pakistan..... Let me not even start on that.... Gandhi and Nehru were great leaders no doubt. But I blame them for the mess we are in today. In a way, I blame Gandhi more. What if he hadn't accepted the 2-Nation theory ??? the British had to leave India anyway. The worst that would have happened was that they would have left in 1950 instead of 1947.
Gandhi was a great leader and in a way was responsible in the bigggest way for bringing India freedom. But why could he have disagreed with partition?? If the Muslims really needed another country, then how is it that India(which was cast as a HINDU nation by Jinnah) has the highest Muslim population who live more or less in peace with the Hindus ???
Due to partition, thousands of people lost their lives and due to partition, and the subsequent wars, a HUGE part of our economy has been wasted towards the war. Wouldn't this have been better spend on the country???
And the goddamn politicians. they make me sick to the core. My blood boils every time I read abt them or see them on TV.
They claim to be "leaders" of the community.... I would like to ask how?? what do they do for the country?? I know there are a few good people like PC, Manmohan, S M krishna, etc.... but the vast majority are psychopathic, heartess, cruel, greedy, selfish, ba****ds.
People die of hunger in their constituencies and they do not care. They make a public appearance and promise the family some money. What use is this money?? Can money bnring back a dead person??
Just looking at one of those donkeys makes me mad. With their big fat bellies. People are living in poverty and they do not care. They eat up the money meant for the people and the development of the community.
Even in times of crisis, they do not care. Case in point : That IAS officer in Bihar Gautam Goswami who pocketed laks(or was it crores??) of rupees meant for flood victims. Can anyone get any more heartless than this ???
nd the worst part is that we the people are to be blamed. We elect these greedy people to power. Democracy we say. India is the world's largest democracy we say proudly.... What is the use if the result is politicians like we have today???
But look at it from another point of view..... There are no decent politicians to elect!!! Aprt from the handful of good guys, most candidates standing for elections are crooks in one way or the other.
The solution is that mosre young people of our generation stand for election. That is happening in a small way with Rahul Gandhi, Scindia, etc.... But then the number is again so small that they cannot do anything on their own.
And if we the educated people refrain from voting due to lack of decent candidates, then even more greedy pigs will be elected as the illiterate people will just vote for the person who speaks the most and promises the most and in most cases bribes the most.
This is a sad part of our country. We very proudly look at the sensex toda yand say that we touched 7200 points. But what use is that to the common man?? The common man who doesn;t even know what the Sensex is?? How does it help him ??
Theoretically, the economy booming means that the govt has more money to spend on infrastructure and development of the country. But in reality what happens is that the money is eaten up by the middle men. Right from the top fellow to the Panchayat at the village level.
And illiteracy is one of the biggest problems. People do not know a damn thing. They are taken for a jolly good ride by the cunning and greedy.
And just being literate is not enough. People must be taught as to what is what and politicians should be exposed for what they truly are.
We as an educated class should take a more active role in the running of our country. But I ask myself how??? And what is the use??? And the answer is that until the MAJORITY of our population change their thinking and views, our country will go no where.

I want to know what other members at TE think of all this......
