IS OUR DEMOCRACY
ON ITS LAST VOYAGE?
Earlier
I had written an article on our life Before & After independence. The
sanctity of our Democracy is deteriorating very fast and if we do not arrest
this downward trend we may witness the collapse of this democratic governance
very soon.
We have
presently a set of elected representatives (selected?) who seem to be not
bothered about their responsibilities and commitments to the people who brought
them to power. Most of these MLAs/MPs are behaving so unmannerly in Assembly
& Parliament resulting in disruption causing untimely adjournments of the
sessions. These politicians are nurturing and maintaining their party interests
only and not trying to find solutions to the numerous problems faced by the
public at large. The sufferings of the people are always on the increase and no
action is taken timely to protect the common man to live a peaceful life.
Murders
and brutal killings are daily occurrences in this country of ours! We are
afraid of our own countrymen than those who are termed as our enemies!! Why we
should fight against our neighboring countries when we are at STAKE in our own
country? I find that the leadership failure is the root causes of this plight
of ours. The leaders are not able to guide and control the followers resulting
in chaos and unruly assaults on people and public properties. The leaders fall
in line with the followers! That is the bane of our society. We do not have a
committed and responsible LEADER who can take us to a GREEN PASTURE.
The
intended policy & structure of the Judiciary & police was to work independently
without being interfered or influenced by the politicians. But now the whole
system have been “turned turtle” by the interference of the introvert
politicians. Both these departments must be free to perform and there should
not be any external forces acting on them… Therefore the Constitutional
provisions have to be observed in both Style & Use if we are to exist
peacefully in this Independent country. Otherwise we will perish in a worst
deplorable manner.
