Was Winston Churchill right about India?

INDIA BOASTS of having the biggest democracy of world, but is it indeed? Let’s look at few of the top stories recently:
  • Sikhs are still waiting for justice in Sikh riots of 1983
  • Muslims are not given justice even after 17 years after of Babri Mosque demolition.
  • A popular media group was attacked by a political party in front of cameras
  • About 800 million Indian people are below the poverty line.
Is this the kind of democracy India can be proud of? If the rights of minorities are not safe how is this democracy different from anarchism? Justice delayed is justice denied. If the juridical system can’t take decision in more the 15 years, is it indeed of any use?

The media is called the third pillar of democracy, but its sanctity remains unclear. It has even been commercialised to that extent that even religious programs of Hindus, astrological predictions, update of soap operas are finding their place on prime time.

India boasts of having a growth rate of about eight per cent even in this global crisis, but who is actually being benefited? To some extent it is even against the common people as only some part of population is progressing having much purchase power, which inflates the economy cursing the poor people.

Nothing is being done to stop the population of poor people, as that provides cheap labour to be harassed by industrialists. Even the politicians want poor people as they are easily bought to fulfil their political ambitions.

Winston Churchill, former British Prime minister had once said that if India ever gets freedom, it would be run by goons. With political parties leaving no stone unturned in a bid to continue mud-slinging against their rivals. The Babri demolition, the riots between communities that have frequently happened here as well as the blatant manner in which the Thackrays go about using regionalism as a demand, does not prove otherwise. The fact that these people are chosen to the lead the nation makes it even sadder.  Are we civilised indeed?


Wasn’t Churchill right???

---   no.   what the problems you raised are very correct.

appriciate your style of presentation.

but curcill wrong in his own reasons.

if India ever gets freedom, it would be run by goons "

' Goon - US ruffian hired by racketeers etc; ruffian - violent lawless person '

 

---    not only india every corner of the world including the breitain, if people are careless about their rulling; then violent and lawless persons will come up and started rulling. when people awake these lawless rulers washed out.

this is revoulation. it is not a new word before the world.

 

rulling by bretain over india was a goon. curchil himself was the leader on his time. it was a veauge logic.

british ruller told that they came to civilise india by rulling.

actualy they answers a typical question that, -  why indians will be ruled by themselves (britishers)? 

from a logic less position they ansered such nonsense.

yes it is correct. we have to find out the solution of our problems by ourselves and within the democracy.

once upon a time, human beings thought that how happy they would be - if they have two wings, like birds. on that time they have to legs to run. on that time they only thought.

ttherafter we got wheels; cycles; motor cycles; cars; and now aeroplanes - to fly.

today we dream - a coruptionless india; but i strongly believe that, in future human society will establish - a coruptionless world.

just making our society coruptionless won't help. we have to become mentally healthy. like when someone takes their problems and requests for help, instead of making this aggrieved person realize that there are others who are suffering more than them, they should just give the best help they can, instead of sermonizing

WELL, ITS EVERY TIME THE ONES WHO SHOULD BE PRACTICING DEMOCRACY ACTUALLY PHILOSOPHISING THE THEORY. JUSTICE IS FIGHTED FOR NOT GRANTED ......LEADERS ARE CHOOSEN AND NOT CRITICISED. NOT JUSTIFYING THE CORRUPTION BUT MAKING THE MISTAKE MUTUAL NOT ONE-SIDED. AT THE END OF THE DAY ITS THE PEOPLE WHO RULE THE STATE.
