Shavitriji,
We have to accept certain basic facts of life and trends as prevalent in present day India. The trends that you have mentioned are all valid and the causes for the same are well know , so there is no pint in repeating the same. The influence of the Western media both print and electronic have been enormous . This was very much evident when the new cabinet was being sworn in . A very few of the Ministers took the oath of office in Hindi. This was not only true in case of Ministers who are from non Hindi speaking States but quite a few from the North also. A few of them who may consider to be class apart use their own expensive designer pens to sign the register , rather than using the Sarkari India made Parker . The pictures in the print media of our worthy elected representatives gave a clear indication of the dominance of the English speaking, anglicized elite class.
It cannot be said that all of them got elected solely due to their family connection. Obviously they have been voted by a large number of commoners. Therefore, it can be well assumed that the western ideas and sophisticated looks and dresses of these young ladies and gentlemen have been well accepted by the masses. You may be aware that the designer made Kurta and Paijama were a great hit this time and so was the Bell212 and Eurocopter Helicopters. The day is not far off when we may have a bar in the vicinity of Parliament House for the benefit and convenience of our representatives.
This being the peoples increasing chioise, the task that you plan to undertake is indeed uphill .Contrary to general belief, the lifestyle of many of our leaders in the BJP is no different than their counterpart in the UPA. All are crazy for the nicer things of life as is evident from media report that a Karnataka Minster spend an astronomical sum on his sonâs wedding at Bangalore. Certain things go with power and it is same for all politicians irrespective of their party affiliation.
I wish you all the best in your most noble effort.
