Answer the public
This is a time when everyone in India is eagerly waiting for the inauguration of Commonwealth Games. Just when the Queen's baton is doing the rounds of the states the lid over the commonweatlth preparations has gone off. Suddenly everybody has woken up, woken up from a sleep, just to realize that we as a nation are not ready yet to host the commonwealth games. It's just like you have exam tomorrow & you realize it only day before that you are not yet ready to take the exam, now what to do. But unlike in the exam where an individual is responsible for the exam readiness, this is a case of collective responsibility towards hosting the games. The respect of the nation & it's nationals is at stake. Who is responsible for the last minute mess, who has moved our cheese. It's none other than the elected ones. The ones we have elected using our power of votes. Our own elected leaders have brought shame to us. They have made us realize how irresponsible we are in voting them to power. We didn't even think once before rooting them to power. Our elected leaders failing to address the foodgrain management faultiness, encouraged blackmarketing in the busy hour which led to high inflation. Instead of focussing on the real problem they increased taxes, base prices of many essential items. We cannot blame them, because we have rooted them to power. How irresponsible can the management of Commonwealth games be who did not start the actual work before more than 60% time of actualization had passed. No work, just taxes & talks & credit taking speeches, what sort of leadership we have put into power. Is it what we wanted ? A leadership just to siphon off the funds, non answering on any issue to the nation/public. Be it budgeting of Commonwealth games from 1800 crores to 30000 crores, rotting of foodgrains in storage houses at a time when inflation is at all time high- prices are touching sky, non-execution of anyone in '84 riots when the victims' voices are falling on deaf ears, siphoning off public money allocated to Commonwealth games. We must ask Rahul Gandhi/ Priyanka Gandhi/ Manmohan Singh/ Sonia Gandhi where are they now. They must come out & explain what all is happening. Or are we used to seeing them making rosy pictures giving sweet speeches in election times, answerable to no one on any issue, why are they in power for ? just to make hay on our money ? We must ask ourselves as well, Why we root them to power ? They make hay coz we give them way! Stop feeding the lazy, irresponsible, incompetent leaders cos a habit like this of voting such people to power shows a tendency towards slavery, where the only difference is slave have masters by force & such people have masters by choice. But the end result is the same both are slaves. Come out of such habits & raise concerns, it takes courage but it gives freedom & better life. The one we deserve not the one being offered presently.
