The Crisis.

The principle of democracy as quoted by the former president of USA Abraham Lincoln Democracy is by the people for the people and of the people but apparently for Indian parliamentarians who are yet to understand this virtue that parliament is a place to contest for the issues of people than make noise or read the famous Urdu couplets nevertheless one would find great deficit in the audit of Indian parliament working hours and wastage hours through adjournments and logjam resulting the great loss to the exchequer and national interest. The monsoon session of Indian parliament was expected to complete its paramount business on vital issues like inflation, food security, right to privacy etc for common man but the stubborn attitude of opposition and other political parties has reflected that Indian parliamentary exercise with prudence with self interest motive that has to mature our leaders attitude to reform and live up to people’s expectations.

The need is to bring the sensitization to understand about leaders who misrepresent us in Indian parliament rather voicing concerns lead in jamming the progress of parliamentary business; it is farce that our parliamentary proceedings come across cases of bribe paid to leaders to ask questions in the parliament. After the six decades of democratic rule the political institution is yearning to reform itself professionally and principally in ethics and in area of functioning with integrity. The day is yet to arrive when Indian politics is quoted as the institution of excellence striving for people removing the vices like criminals running elections, delivering pro people administration with good governance in transparent and accountable equity for people; our leaders becoming role models for the generation next to take up politics to serve society. Nevertheless the shortcomings in political institution particularly governance is different from the author expectations which touched with malice like corruption, scams, and breach of ethics that bring great censure to the sovereignty of Indian parliament.

The national parties like congress and BJP that has rechristened itself in alliance as UPA and NDA has left with little ideology and more ideas for maneuvering the calculations for power may it be in continuing the alliance with DMK with A raja’s Saga of corruption against the nation in 2G spectrum case or The petrol pump scams and the defense ministry bringing disrepute in Coffin deals for martyrs under NDA regime; or the fresh influential exposure by former Karnataka lokayukta who unmask the BJP’S  true face in Karnataka under the shadow of power a chief minister who brought nothing but shame to the party with difference and democratic culture by indulging in misappropriation of power.

The evil practices and exposure of crisis in morality in political institution has resulted in the trust deficit by creating a gap between politics and the young India today who wish to see their future somewhere else but not in politics. The people has been taken for granted on the vote account for long time  but now the time has come either the political institution clear its premises on its own or let we the people take the task into our hands to clean up the rotten mentality of tolerating the intolerable.  The solution to the mess around us is to stand up and don’t just ask for change be the change from these agility of exploitation. We have to show them the true meaning of democracy for us and let us collectively have the tryst in making Indian democracy a distinct democracy of world.

Yes we can do it.
