Start adopting sustainable life-styles. Dont ignore environment related issues. Development at the cost of environmental degradation can never make life easy. Agriculture activity is the bottom line of well being of people of India and exactly, this is what was missing from so called development plans for India. Economies which ignore their strengths are bound to collapse. And if the economy is driven by factors which are not basic needs, fall is bound to happen. World will have to pay price for ignoring agriculture and environment related issues. It would be foolish to believe that these two factors dont affect the economic development.
People in metros are wasting food; spending money on lavish dinners; while a major part of population goes without proper food. How this can be termed as development? You have 24 hours electricity supply in Metros, while villages are going without electricity for 18-20 hours. Average electrcity consumption of a Shopping mall is more than a village of population of less than 1000.

Should we all go to villages and start living there? Or should we face the challenges and try to find new solutions. The victory of human race is not in receding into older ways but continuously finding newer ways of life.

Shoot all those corrupt who take bribe and who do not work being in public service. Start with police, custom officers, excise people, sales tax, income tax people, RTO, registrars, who eat up India's 50% revenue.

Great Man. Shoot all these, including the Guilty and Non Guilty everybody and leave the criminals (who shot the non guilty) rool the country and India-In-Soup will provide a database of whom to kill to these people. What a statement. How can one identify the Guilty. You know about Naxalism. They tried to do the same. But ended up living in Forests, doing many things for slef benifits and Revenges. Be constructive yar, these type of shooting will not work. Did you ever dare to chanllenge any corrupted official in public. May be you are, but majority will not. But they come here and talk all the nonsense. The country is a group of billion people like you and me. Start from you, at least stop paying Bribe, if you are living in India.
