While worrying about the state of India,I used to think that our politicians have little stake in this country because a) their moneys are in swiss banks and b) their children are settled abroad in cushy jobs.
On reflection I feel I was only partially correct. At least their children seem to be worried about this country though their fathers themselves feel they have little stake in this country.
Otherwise <i>this site</i> would have become extinct long ago !
What I am about to say is not anything new.. This has been said many times before. I feel this needs to be said again.
What if the Congress and the NDA come together--at least for the duration-until this Country is lifted up by its bootstraps?
The numbers of both these parties in the present Parliament will give them a good majority. This will put an end to the Commies dictating terms and thus be in the way of all progress.
After all they are <i>playing</i> democracy only to wreck it from within !
The NDA may be justified in putting certain conditions such as a) getting rid of the present Dynasty b) agreeing to a common minimum programme the main feature of which will be the State treating Hindus as human beings and stopping the pampering of ANY religion -minority or otherwise.
The result of getting away from the left influence will free our Historians to teach our History afresh thus putting some pride into the young minds about our past and getting rid of the Aryan/Dravidian divide in a very short period of one generation.
This is bound to change the face of the South-atleast Tamilnadu.
Not being dependent on minority votes to retain power (after all power is given to the politicians only for doing good to the polity in general) the present behaviour of our politicos may change for the better.
After having exhibited good governance for one term there is every possibility of their getting re-elected.
Any takers?
Or I am asking for the moon?
