Post Title – Era of Judeos Laxmans and Kulastes

Original Post Date – Tuesday, December 20, 2005

Not so long back we have seen Judeo and Bangaru laxman taking bribes on television. What started as a big melodrama, sensational story and front page news items ended up with enquiry commisions, courts and courts' dates. And we all know how it will finally end.

What's wrong here - In one of my previous article I said politicians are not bad. In fact, they are one of the most pro-active and hard working part of the society. It is in fact the value system in the society which is to blame for. It is typical "Indian" attitude which has to change. We collectively as Indian encourage corruption, carelessness and unethical behaviour.
But I am not saying that this politians are pure and good. They should be equally blamed. In fact they should not be spared and stringent, strict and immediate action should be taken against them. They are misusing public funds for the long long time. It is only now that they are caught.

Role of media - No one can deny the role of the media in todays world. You cannot stop people to become corrupt. But these are the clearer detterrent for them to become so. Sad part is that it all ends up here only. There are many stories which becomes headlines and then soon vanishes. Very rarely channels take the social responsibility and take the story to its logical conclusion. To quote the example. Madhumita murder shouldn't be quoted in the media if the culprits are roaming freely in the society. They are taking the shelter of law but media can rake these issues and get the culprit punished. Same is the case with Abu Salem.
Lately I was watching interview of Sachin Tendulkar in Aaj Tak. Anchor Prabhu Chawla was bomarding him with his question. He was not interested in what Sachin is answering. The only thing he was interested was creating controversies. He was looking for that "Single Statement" which can become a classic controversy. He was paraphrasing Sachin's statement to give it controversial taste. He was raising unrelated issues and questions to him. This was just an example. Similar things happens in other channels and programs. Media just wants to create stories to fill up its prime time. It does not shows any responsibility beyond that

Post Title – Communists - Which age you are living?

Recently, Montek Singh Ahluwalia commented(read lamented) that india has the potential to grow @ of 10% but looking at the coalition politics it simply could not. What a subtle admittance to the helplessness government has in the presence of Left parties. It is loud and clear "AS LONG AS LEFT PARTIES ARE PART OF GOVERNMENT WE CAN'T GROW FREELY"
Left parties are only responsible for keeping the growth of the country at low rate. Had congress goverment had clear majority at the centre BHEL would have disinvested by now. And the Sensex would have been soaring at much more than 9000 as it is now.
What is wrong with the left parties? Left parties are ruling West Bengal for almost half a decade. Mind you, this is the same bengal whose prosperity has lured the British to come and establish business here. And now WB is nowhere in the FDI map. Why?? It is very discouraging.
Left is living in the Karl Marx' regime. It still believes that communism is a valid philosophy. But the history has shown that communism has failed badly all over the world. Communist USSR is broken into many part. Even, China is now inviting FDI to spur its growth. But why communists in India are so ignorant. Communism is a utopian concept. Any society where Human beings are inhabited cannot accept ideal communism. Human instincts like competition, having more than other, and have social disparity cannot be suppressed. There would be no motivation to work hard if everyone is going to get the same irrespective of the quality or amount of work. As simple as that. Human nature is like that.
In short, Communist should come out of their shells and see the world has changed too much since Karl Marx. Foreign investment, free trade, globalization are the buzz of the era and the only mantra for survival and econonmical prosperity

Much ado about nothing

As a part of my blogs consolidation process, I am importing the following blog from one of my old blog(http://political-viewpoint.blogspot.com/). This blog was originally written on Tuesday, March 07, 2006.

It has got one comment from Praveen(http://www.blogger.com/profile/15505567619444159599) and the comment says
----------------------------
Well n good!
For a moment forget about the unprecendented sympathy. Someone killed her, that's the fact. Media sometimes do a good thing. So, the case has been reopened and we do hope for justice. I tell you, there is absolutely no sympathy... who has that time? But if the culprits are brought to justice, we will be happy. If the culprits are from "leaders" category, we will be happier, definitely:)

Thanks Praveen for the comments. Here goes the blog

Much ado about nothing

There is so much fuss over the Jessica Lal case in the media. It is only because the case got too much of media coverage therefore this case is gaining unprecedented sympathy from the people. But it should not be forgotten that daily a number of such cases occur in the country. And most of these crimes are committed by affluent people in the society. Political leaders, business tycoons and their relative never ever care about the law. It might sound strange but the truth is that the influential people carry very low and negative attitude towards the law. They think that as long as they have power and money they can do anything. From the moment they wake up to the time they to got sleep they are ridden with the same impudence and arrogance. It is obvious from the way they behave in the society that given the loopholes in the legal system and the power of he money they don't have to care a little to abide by the law.
