LOKPAL
From the day one of man’s life on this earth began, he was experimenting with the surroundings for better means of living for his security and comforts. In this long race he has formulated many gadgets to set right his life style in harmony with nature and the other living and non living species. This background was kept as our “anchor block” to sort out the issues that confront us in our modern life ensuring security to our life and property and goodwill of our neighbors.Now as it is, we have almost all the elements to run our life’s business much better than ever before. The most important being our TEXT of Administration- the Constitution of India- Our sacred GEETHA/BIBLE/KHURAN and this Holy Book as I may call it, propels the line of action of all of us. The three formations, The Legislature/The judiciary/The Executive are the three “Moorthies” to handle the Sacred Book.
Of late, we on our struggle to attain greater heights in our position amongst the nations of the world, took shortcuts and plunged ourselves in an irreversible “Muddle” and lost sight of our “guiding star”- the provisions of the Constitution. If the constitutional provisions are meticulously followed in style & use with absolute involvement, we would have been in an enviable position in Social/Economical and technical fields.But what happens! We are trying to be over sensitive and suddenly burst into abstract ideas of improvements in the Administrative machinery resulting in an awkward situation. As we know, corrupt mind begets corrupt thoughts and corrupt thoughts beget corrupt actions leading to all types of evil doings. Though we have inbuilt provisions/remedies in our administrative system we always run on slipping gear and resort to counter arguments and try to find out shortcut solutions. We continue endless discussions on one subject without any End result!
Such situations only have given rise to the idea of forming LOKPAL. I feel that such formation of a separate body of Experts to set right our evildoings will not cure our “ailments”. It will only be a “Pillar to post” journey only to bounce back to “square one”. We do not expect any Angels or Archangels to run or administer the LOKPAL. It has to be manned by the same human beings as in the case of all other Institutions! They are also of the same flesh & blood and will not have any Supernatural powers to outlive human weakness. By introducing such system we will be forced to continue to live in Chaos & Misery without any remedial measure to come back to normal and peaceful existence in our country with people of different tastes and social environments.
Therefore what can be the ultimate solution? May I suggest that we should continue to apply corrections in our thoughts & actions concentrating in the provisions of the “Constitution of India” and set right things by the correct application of mind with a WILL without fear or favour.
I am sure that our present administrators will put their shoulders together and pull us out from the fathomless pits we are falling into! William Shakespeare said “ FRAILTY is thy name woman..Now we can correct it as “CRUELTY & CORRUPTION is thy name…
