Do we have real Democratic government in India?
When U read news paper/Magazine, it is full of caste wars, Communal riots,Eve teasing,Offences against women,Political murders and financial frauds…so many.When a honest person tries to represnt it in court/forum,either he will be shifted to other location or to Heaven.Take examples of Great Shri Seshan for his untiring efforts to reform electorial issues or Mrs Kiran Bedi for attempting to make reforms in Goonda culture in National capital ie,New Delhi or the recent murder of Public Engineer Mr.Pandya for his efforts to intiate measures on cost controls for the one of the World Banka aided National High ways project..etc.When some one tries to make better India, he/she will be victimised and our impotent citizens remains silent spectatorThe film makers makes money by screening movies on social evils like corruption(Sahenshah),Cola wars(Corporate),women issues (Mirch Masala).We watch,Talk and forget about them.The question remains same ie.,R we really living in democratic India?
Well, what is your question ? Democracy ? Or disorder ? Democracy–yes, we do have a legitimate, officially established democracy. But the constitution was formed by the modifications in the British constitution, that too to the “conveniece” of the then ‘patriotic’ leaders ! The changes and modifications angered Ambedkar then, but he was not in a position to do anything. This ‘convinient’ pattern produces MPs like the late Phoolan Devi, our Laloo (or Aaloo ?), Shibu Soren and the like. If constitution allows for electing criminals and ignorant, simplistic people who cannot even have most common social skills, what can the public do–except revolt just like in 1857 ?
