Just quoting GEETA or Bapus word will not yield anything

Nor Empty debates on NDTV

what we need is a steely resolve to EMPOWER our Instititions

i)CBI should be autonomous and Independent

ii)Police taken out of Home Minsiters control and bring it under the POLICE INTEGRITY COMMISSION (Just like australia ,uk etc)

iii)Take out the First Past the Post system and get the Mixed proportionate electrol system as well

iv)Get Judicial Reforms

v)Get Police Reforms etc

Then Indian democracy will shine

All this articles saying

we are Dritirastra
we lack spirituality
we lack morals etc

Caste System is the root cause of India's misery
by Kumar on Oct 17, 2012 03:17 AM  | Hide replies

Caste System is the root cause of India's misery. Manusmriti made favoritism and cronyism supreme over talent and aptitude as a result India had 2000 years of caste based reservation leading to the current dismal state of the nation. India will become a slave nation again unless the people wake up to the games played by the Manubadis.

I think Caste Sytem came about due to Traditional Occupations since a long time

But such Castes have been exploited by the indian politicians to keep it alive

But biggest problem is lack of Empowerment of Institutions

1.Make independent CBI and give it the autnomy

2.Vote out Congress led Govt for Good

3.Make all Foxy and Cunning politicians retire as well

4.then Lokpal
electrol reforms
Judicial reforms
Police reforms etc

INDIA will definetlt shine and have a proper Democracy where all Indians can have opportunities as well

Politicians without children
by palanki narayana on Oct 16, 2012 08:35 PM  | Hide replies

Politicians without children campaign for votes claiming that as they have no children for whom to leave their wealth,they will not be tempted to amass wealth.An example is the Madhya Pradesh legislator Shabnam Mausi,who being of third gender could use the argument to win the election.

Administrative reforms and accountabilty measures are needed
by RamRahim on Oct 16, 2012 04:11 PM

What we need today are more of administyrative reforms puuting clear accountability of officials concerned. What we have is authority to an official but no accompanying accountability. We have punishments for the offender in public but no punishment for non-performer or colluder in authority. What we need is more transparency and reforms in administrative arena rather than economic reforms including reforms in FDI as in a corrupt sysyetem all the economic reforms are used by the rich and powerful to accumulate more wealth and power and the poor becoming more poor.

Correction
by Jaganniwas Iyer on Oct 16, 2012 04:04 PM

Shreekant Sambrani's comparison of modern-day Indians to the physically, morally and ethically blind Dhritarashtra is apt. There's a small correction, though and I hope the writer won't mind. It was Bhim's iron inage that Dhritarashtra crushed in his embrace, post the Kurukshetra War, not Yudhishtir's. Dhritarashtra's uncontrollable fury was vented against the second Pandav, the mighty Bhim, who slew all of Dhritarashtra's hundred sons, including the blind ruler's favourite Duryodhan. The writer's analogy to present Indian political, corporate and social life is apt.

Promoting the welfare of their children is not just Indians
by Ekalavyan Acharyan on Oct 16, 2012 01:33 PM

Almost every where it is the same.. even the Bush family which is quoted a selected through democratic process is same as the democartic process which any of our sons of netas go. There is a tacit understanding with everyone involved. Rest is all eye wash!

Also, it is not confined to just netas. Its every where.. a doctor wants his son to run his clinic. The shop keeper wants his son to run his shop later on.. and so on. So, a neta does the same whether it is public or private. That is what they know. The natural instinct of protecting one's offspring cannot be just wished away!

BTW, it was Bheema's statue which was crushed. Why did Dhritarashtra choose him? Think about it...

I don't know much about mahabharata is not good excuse for handing free advice to all! Especially when you try to prove your point! - which is like saying water flows from high to low! Everyone knows it and it is nature's law!
