So much from an honorary and dignified civil services officer for over more than 40 years. it’s not that the aforementioned lines allude towards an astounding hypothesis but state a very simple fact which is imbued and imprinted in the souls and mind of all and sundry. Call it complacency, call it cowardice , call it imbecility call it whatever you like but you don’t have any sound explanation for I billion people choosing some crooked fellows again and again only to be bashed and exploited by them. It never would have dawned on the founding fathers of world’s greatest democracy that what what they were giving the people of India was going to be their worst nightmare and the night would never end.
The fact that India is ranked 83rd among list of some 150 nations listed in order of increasing corruption levels does little to alleviate or ameliorate the wretched living conditions which millions have to cope with. Obviously , the fact that India’s

In communism man exploits man . in democracy the reverse is true. Soviets have learnt the lesson but india’s still to learn from it’s mistakes.

Right from your home , right from your street, right from the town /village you live , right from the place you work . imagining India today as ever being equal to west is a rare possibility , a distant dream , a bit of exaggeration but let’s not forget our past and our present potentials which is our valuable human resource which is more efficient than the any other human resource in the world.they pertinently point t the fact that we were and we can be the best in the world.
Only thing required is a little sacrifice on our part so that our posterities live in a much better off world. Sacrifice- you must be crazy- nobody does that- a tleast I am not doing that-this is just a bluff not to be taken seriously------seriously.
