WAKE UP INDIANS LET US VOTE FOR CHANGE.

Again valid argument…

I see and vehemently say we are all right in our points of view…. But our points of view are all different perspectives for the same issue..

Yet no one addresses that ...

The crore rupee question is… who is going to lead a united voice that is looking at the solutions only… we could produce one superman or woman in 1000 years but again that superman was supported only by the downtrodden and was marked out for reasons best left to history. Even in those days, India never had a united middle class…

What you are mentioning and this can go on for quite some time – we will have a very short commercial break in between – and will run out of time or will have only 2 seconds for the comments and views to be grasped and taken further – before we realize we are back to square one… as always.

The only way out is for EVERY T D & H worth his salt to join the politics and chisel the system from within..

You and me can be fiery on issues but it is the politicians cool collected and completely criminal mind that can only be tamed to improve the system…

And also learn from history geography illogic biology and intuition that.. maybe Maybe MAYBE.. this region, its positioning and all that has gone into making it what it is today might have to just be like this… 'cos it's in its genes… an analogy similar to what we have in the middle east where 'peace' will NEVER be possible because the genetic code of those people there does not have it in them.Its only a non-rhetoric look that will save this country and that too once self-interests are totally curbed

Well said!!

But, changing governing body is a reflection of change in attitude. If no, think for yourself. Believe me, it takes a lot of persistence from your own conscience before you change the party you vote for. Can you switch from Congress to BJP in the wink of an eye? No. It has to come from within even if it's only a vote. And that feeling is the reflection of change in thought. We need to start somewhere, right?

Also, we don't have 1000 years to live that we go about changing ourselves bit by bit and then the governing body. Such things need to happen in parallel. Problems are plenty, but its high time we dwell on solutions and not the problems.

Well said – emotional charged rhetoric and totally theoretical..

Which are the competent parties and their candidates who can be voted into power in any of your or my constituency..

Do any of us have the luxury of taking time out to find them out and see what they are upto? We educated so called middle class nouveau rich Indians are only going to be as fragmented as shards of broken glass

each educated Indian just like the politician is busy trying to save for his rainy days ahead…

NONE of the educated middle class Indians will ever come together on any issue and fight with one voice – unlike the class of Indians who are relegated as the labor class who will unite under some or the other pretext to show their unity simple situation… -

I as an educated middle class guy have an argument with an rickshaw driver on some issue

He will have 10 others to support him, but none of the other passengers of my own class will ever come forward the way the other rickshaw drivers come to their rescue.. it's like watching crows and pigeons who flock to assist an injured or helpless member of their class,we being so educated totally disregard our own voice forget about an united voice..how do you think this attitude will change? Before you change your governing body?

A) Is this Government really protecting us??!! 7/11 2006: Mumbai Train Blasts. 209 Killed. 25/8 2007: Hyderbad Blasts: 42 Killed Oct 11 2007: Ajmer Blasts : 2 Killed May 13 2008: Jaipur Blasts : 68 Killed July 16th 2008: Ahmedabad Blasts : 57 Killed July 25th 2008: Banglaore Blasts: 1 killed Sept 13th 2008: Delhi Blasts: 26 Killed Sept 27th 2008: Delhi Blasts: 2 Killed Sept 29th 2008 : Gujrat Blasts : 1 killed Oct 21st 2008: Imphal Blasts : 17 Killed Oct 30th 2008: Assam Blasts : 40 Killed Nov 26th 2008: Mumbai Attack: 180 killed Every major city in India has been attacked consistently over the last two years. Since 2004, 3850 Indians have died in Terror attacks in over 3000 incidents. Is the common Indian on the streets really safe ? Did you know that on the day of the Mumbai train blasts, the Government gave Rs 150 crores for earthquake relief in Pakistan ? Last year our Govt. has given Rs 3000 crores (600 Million Dollars) to Afghanistan? This, when victims of terror in India have not yet got aid? What’s going on? B) Is this Government really secular ? 1) When Madrasas are being shut down in Pakistan, the Indian Government is giving them CBSE status !! It is depriving Muslim children in getting secular education. A Madrasa educated person can get a job in any government office without going through the secular education system. Can India afford to have fundamentalists in government departments? Why cannot the government shut down Madrassas and let Muslim children study with the rest? 2) Our Government has given 25 lakh scholarships ONLY to minority students.. What sin have the majority done not to deserve these? Why cannot poor students of all communities be given scholarships instead of only Muslim children? 3) Thanks to the Congress led Government, out of 36000 temples in Andhra Pradesh, 28000 have closed down in the last five years. Do you want the same trend to continue in other parts of the country? Do you want a Nagaland type of situation in the whole of India? While government controls most of the Hindu temples, the minority community has had full freedom to organize their religious bodies.. The minority communities now have the first right over resources. Is this not a blatant violation of fundamental rights of the majority community? 4) Why have the minorities in Nagaland, Mizoram & Kashmir not got the similar privileges like the minorities in other states? Why is the Govt following different rules for different religions? C) Is this government really making friends or enemies for India ? Thanks to a weak and visionless foreign policy, India has created enemies all around. By the Home Minister’s own admission : "India is surrounded by a circle of fire". Rajiv Gandhi's vision of a powerful "SAARC" is now defunct. 1) Today, India commands little respect from all its neighbours, despite being the largest democracy in the world. 2) Terrorism has engulfed the country from inside and outside. Of course Pakistan,the motherland of international terrorism continues to be a big threat. 3) China has territorial ambitions on India. 4) Nepal, is now being headed by a Maoist government and is ideologically more aligned to China. While India helped to dismantle the dynastic rule in Nepal our own Government surreptitiously supports dynastic rule within its own party. 5) Myanmar is increasingly aligning with Chinese forces with huge Chinese investments in that region. 6) Indian Policies in Srilanka have made Tamil Nadu burn. Will Tamils ever forgive India for encouraging military assault rather than facilitating peaceful dialogue on their north and north east regions. 7) Bangladesh continues to repeatedly aid and abet terrorism. D) Is this Government really pro-poor? The number of people living below the poverty line has increased by a horrifying 20 per cent. India had some 270 million people below the poverty line in 2004-2005, when the present Government took office. That number has gone up by 55 million, or 20 per cent! E) Does this Government really care about the nation? The Pakistani flag is now being hoisted in five districts of states like Assam where the Muslim population has gone up significantly. 92000 Hindu and 6000 Christians are now languishing in refugee camps. The government has turned a blind eye to this. In the name of security, innocent people have been put in jails, whereas people like Yaasin Malik who has 23 murder charges on him, are moving Scot free and gathering their own strength. Is it acceptable to any patriotic Indian? Can the Congress led UPA promise a non-muslim CM in J&K ? Reservation for a Hindu student in Nagaland ? If so, we wholeheartedly support them. Otherwise they should sit at home the next few years and rethink their policies. Can our politicians stop stooping down to any lengths just for money and power ? Like Mr. Sharad Pawar, who first ditched the Congress and then ditched the people and aligned back with the Congress, just to be in power. Don't be deceived. What appears to be communal is not communal, and what appears to be secular is not secular. It is time we change our thinking. Having said all this even BJP has not proved to be any better. But for now we need a change. Let us choose the lesser of the two evils. The same party brought to power again and again means encouraging unabated corruption. Or support the candidates who are good and fighting on their own. Help those candidates who are good, clean and progressive not the criminals. All these important things are deliberately hidden by the media after taking good money for their patriotism. All the electronic media is either governed by any other foreign agency or any seccular party. They are indirectly making mindsets of people according to their own wish. In any way we are not in freedom..Thousands of people lost their lives so that we can vote and live in a society which is violence free ,terror free and fulfilling all their needs. Stand up for this most tolerant and ancient civilization and prevent this great nation from becoming a communal battleground. As citizens of India we must vote for change. WAKE UP INDIANS. LET US VOTE FOR CHANGE. I will not request you to forward this. If you are aware and want others also, you will do it on your own. Our inaction is responsible for what is happening not the action taken by these people.
