Re: [MTC Global] RE: India a view point

Dear N. Chandrsekhar,

I am glad to have found someone like-minded - I get a lot of flak from various sides, but obviously, all have th!eir own (not-so hideable!) agendas. Especially political outfits: they need the reservation system as it is an easy tool fro them to play the votebank card.

Let reason and a humane mindset prevail!

Greetings,

Well said Irmel V Marla. We have to follow a system for 'all of human beings' and not lower the standards for a certain class of people. A law is a law for all and goal posts cannot be altered suiting the circumstances. When you do this the politicians take advantage and make use of the altered goal posts! They tend to play between communities, people and systems!

Warm regards

Dear Satish,

there's nothing wrong with our Constitution! The problem is that our (political and other) decision makers violate it continuously, and that the reservation system is adverse to any sustainable development. These have to be tackled!

Sir,

In my humble view we neither lack patriotism nor will to excel.Even before independence we had Nobel laureates, international sports persons, scientists etc. All these people have vanished post independence. One can easily deduce that problem is with our governance which directly depends on our Constitution.

I maintain we need to urgently look at our Constitution if we want to make headway

I agree with the views expressed by Mr Satish . There is no point in continuously cribbing that we don't have this, not good in that.

Improvements are taking place, may not be at the pace required. The need of the hour is to inculcate individual social responsibility in youngsters as they are the hope of tomorrow, while chipping in to supplement their efforts.

Sir,

It is agreed that we are in a bad shape. But we must remember that India was an extremely rich and progressive country. It implies that we have in us everything to make us a great power. All it now needs is to look inwards and find the solution.

Satish

Dear Sirs,

We should stop blaming the British as they have gone. We have devised a system of governance and if things have gone wrong it is up to us to rectify the system.We can suggest suitable system only when we know the problems and causes for the same. For this purpose we need to examine the issues with an open mind. 

 

The task is not easy as politicians, businessmen and bureaucrats are in league and are unfortunately working against interest of the  country.

Satish

The views are optimistic but in reality hard to achieve goals as we lack patriotism. We work

all PMs from UP. Where do these States stand today? Biharis and UP people can do wonders (rich
in water. land and minerals)if properly directed by the stalwarts of democracy.

Think of productivity of the work force in organized sectors. Think of law enforcement in
India. Who will bell the cat? Not certainly common man alone who is starving, hungry of, for
