Winston Churchill said . "Power will go to the hands of raascals, rogoues, freebooters; all Indian leaders will be of low calibre & men of straw. They will have sweet tongues & silly hearts. They will fight amongst themselves for power & India will be lost in political squabbles. A day would come when even air & water would be taxed in India." [He wrote this 64 years ago. Our politicians are incredible; they have worked very hard to prove him right.....

George Bernard Shaw said it aptly- “Democracy is a device that insures we shall be governed no better than we deserve. Democracy substitutes election by the incompetent many for appointment by the corrupt few.”
Sadly, we have one of the most corrupt, immoral, bigoted societies. Discrimination & Exploitation on the basis of caste, colour, religion, gender, subcaste and even dietary preferences. The politicians have perfected & patented ways to maintain the status-quo and this suits their Divide & Rule policy! In a democracy, the people get the government they deserve! So just as the UP Wallahs thoroughly deserve the government they are getting by reelecting the SP and Mulayam Singh's mafia, Maharashtra also deserves what is is getting for relecting NCP and Congress inspite of their dismal track record on governance!
This is goondagardi at the legislature level! Beat up a police officer, suspend him, suspend MLAa, revoke this, revoke that. Is this all the Govt of Maharashtra does?

What can we expect from Pawar Raj
Ajit Pawar asks farmers if he should urinate into the dam? And then jokes saying farmers are producing more children due to power cut as they have nothing else to do in the dark!!!!!
When an elected MLA beat an officer on duty inside the premises of state Legislature and slapping by a breach of privilege motion the police should retaliate.When he was reinstated he should have gone to Kshitij Thakur`s house and should have taught him how an Officer can behave when the MLA is not in the inside the premises of state Legislature.You can do it now Better late than neverDo it now.All the best

You are right. Our corrupt and criminal minded legislators have no faith in law and democracy. They are arrogant with power. May be, they need treatment with their own medicine.
