India was always centre of attraction for the world. The social political system that prevailed here was never found anywhere in whole world ,its uniqueness has made it the world leader ,that was the golden period of Indian History. the kings ,rulers ,saints & leaders which took birth on this holy land of Rama & Krishna were always praised and gave India a discrete recognition all over world. But soon after the independence the political and social system began to change drastically.Britishers sowed the seed of disparity in secular India which finally led to the division of Indian subcontinent.
This division was the root cause of communal riots and rise of insecure feelings among minorities ,earlier they even don’t know what this insecurity means .If we analyze that instance of time ,we can clearly observe that Political leadership and desire for absolute power was another major cause for partition .It has initiated the notion of being in minority ,religious insecurity and insecularism. Since then the level of politics has been on constant decline ,be it the political parties morals ,values or the imgae that leaders portray (which sometimes puts black spot on nations image).
Earlier leaders were thought to be a person with decent image and educational background be it , Bapu,Jawahar lal Nehru,Lal Bahadur Shastri, Indira Gandhi, Sarojini naidu Rajive Gandhi all these were eminent leaders of all time .they showed such a behaviour that people try to imitate them, common masses trust them like anything.There might be some controversial decisions taken by them(like of calling emergency by Indira Gandhi)Inspite of that the image of political leaders was not so disfigured.
But now a days when we give a look to our political system ,we find so many political parties mushroomed all over country ,each shouting their own slogan raising their flags ,each claming to be voice of common masses .and try to portray themselves as the social reformers. All this seems to be very fanatical and looks like any commercial ad .what game they play at their level everyone knows well. Though there is still a large mass who is uneducated , and this mass is which they target to convince for vote bank by injecting revolutionary thought on the basis of caste ,religion & social backwardness.
In reality none of them is interested in all that, they all just aim their vested interests and give their political career a thrust .
Moral principles and parliamentary codes are a luxury for the political parties these days and they can forego all this in the face of hard realities. They are proclaiming faith in pragmatism which is a philosophy to bypass the question of ends and means and concentrate on the practical side of things. But the expression in relation to politics has acquired a certain kind of acceptability. Real deals are needed and not the theories of dreams to run the present governments. If the chaos that is cooking now and threatens to overwhelm our polity is to be avoided the low type of pragmatism has to be countered well in time. And intelligentsia (serious about the matter) have to see that they do not follow the easy going route to power but honour their own known credentials. They should get into the strenuous mood and face the ordeals of labouring spirit.
Be it Godhra riots ,or Ayodyha temple clashes , Amarnaath shrine board ,burning missionaries and churches all these events are politically motivated and are being done under their supervision. Political Leaders have no morals left to follow ,they just insure that how much vote bank they will be able to draw out of this controversies.
It’s a matter of great concern ,why our system has become so much corrupt and polluted ,the law and order are becoming uncontrollable.
To our dismay none of the political party have agenda of national interest ,all they have is only to cash the feelings ,emotions & religious issues for vote bank politics
We are reflecting crumbled Indian image to world that we don't have a strong political will over certain basic common issues of national interest such as nuclear deal, amaranth shrain board prblm, no confidence motions, waving notes in parliament & making fun of Indian democracy. when will these Old Idiot fellows governing our country will awake .Terrorist have adopted proxy war policies serial blast are examples of that , but our so called leaders are busy in fighting whether the shrain board should b given land or not ,whether SetuSamundram should be built or not, creating obstacle in industrialization for short term benefits(Ms. Bannerji at singur hats of to the lady )
Then why to blame that 50-60% people didn't go for votes , why they should bother about importance of vote when these political fools are shaking hands with one another when they have to safeguard their interests.
Most political parties, despite their track record of corruption and skull duggery, manage to deviate into a show authenticity with rhetoric and a suitable agenda to extract the best out the particular occasion. Under such an atmosphere, the innocent people before they go to vote, are offered a feast of half-truths and equivocal dreams as also a whole plate of platitudes and rationalizations. Of course, the darkness and the plague spots are kept hidden so as to be out of the public vision those evil practices and policies which the other party in power had converted into an electoral art.
So I think its time to bring some reformation in this system ,where political leaders must have certain eligibility criteria on educational background, and youth should be encouraged to take politics as a career and a way to serve nation .Then only the India shining image will be worth some in world .
