Young India Wants Change

[2008-12-23 17:00:50]

"Enough is Enough!" This is the slogan what young India has been rhyming after the recent Mumbai attacks. The mayhem created by these attacks has really brought solidarity between Indian citizens. And this is for everyone to see. The writing is on the wall. Indians need change; such kind of change that can transform the inefficient, corrupted, immoral, unethical India into an efficient, innovative, ethical, moral, and transparent India. This is the current requirement. And the country politicians should fulfill this requirement immediately. Otherwise, they need to vacate their power seats, which they have been sticking to it for so long! In short, this is what young India has been trying to communicating to its country's politicians. Read further to know what young Indians want ...

India, one billion people, one billion minds, is vibrant today with the CHANGE concept. After American president Obama conveyed the same change concept to the beleaguered Americans, who has been suffering due to the misguided policies of self-styled financial institutions in the name of financial innovations, they accepted it and voted for Obama allowing him to become the first black president of America. In America's case, the change concept has been suggested by the politicians-to-people, a top-down approach. But in India, it is the reverse case. Indian citizens want the change. In India's case, it is a bottoms-up approach. Indian people are forcing their politicians to Change.

The foundation for this change revolution has been laid by the country's economic and political conditions caused by the recession and recent spate of terrorist attacks due to which so many people killed. At the same time, political parties showed laxity in taking preventive steps and in controlling the terrorist attacks, in turn displaying apathy to the public needs, who voted them to power.

Now, Indian citizens are blaming and asking the entire corrupt and insincere political system to GO HOME! Instead of thinking them as the servants of the people, these politicians started thinking themselves as masters of the people. This kind of mindset has rotten the whole political machinery making politics as a sort of business to mint money for oneselves instead of serving the people. Now, Indian citizens are asking politicians to change this kind of mindset. If politicians will not listen to them, they will face wrath in the hands of those people, who have the power to vote against them.

India is the world's largest democracy and according to the world analysts, India has the potential to become the next superpower. The one billion educated people of India have the potential to generate one billion innovative and creative ideas, which can storm the world like a tsunami. Such is the potential and might of India people. Unfortunately, Indian politicians are a rotten lot. They are still following the old tactics like sticking to their power seats even after becoming old, siphoning money out of the public system to serve their personal needs instead of serving the public, inconsiderable and intolerant to people needs and worries, etc.

As you are all aware, that patience has its own breaking point and it seems, Indians have reached that point. Being educated and talented, instead of going for a mass revolution, which ultimately leads to anarchy, Indians are coercing their country's politicians in a noble and non-violent way. This particular act is a symbolic representation that the young India loves Mahatma Gandhi, father of the nation, and still believes in the potential of his Non-Violence weapon.

Hope politicians of India are intelligent enough to consider this people's revolution and bring changes in the system and in themselves, to build an efficient and transparent India, then that is well and good for everyone.
