“I think BJP has a very decent chance to form the government
this time around.”
“AAP has a pretty solid principle too. They should be given
a chance at the center.”
“Nothing matters man. Congress has been fooling the voters
for years. The idiots will vote for them again I am sure.”
These are some very common line of thoughts among an average
Indian these days. Even those with no idea of the number of states this country
has, participate in debates showing off their intellectual prowess concerning
politics and national issues. A decade long Congress supporter backs them. The
AAPtards then come forward and count the scams Congress government was involved
in during their term. The BJPites then shout out loud the recent debacle AAP
government faced in the national capital. Everyone points a finger at everyone.
Pseudo-intellectuals at work.
Poverty, corruption, education – some of the major issues
most political parties base their pre-election manifestoes on. These are
brought up in every debate, are part of all contesting candidate’s promises,
and are the major points of the current government’s report card. All
governments, especially those of the developing nations like India must tend to
the said issues. Let’s take an instance – Congress, one of the major players at
the national level, has been promising to free the country of poverty since it
first came to power and they will continue doing so, it seems that way.
But it may surprise you if I tell you that things can be
made better by an individual. Yes, just one person per person. Corruption
creeps into the system the moment you take out your wallet to bribe the traffic
police officer who just pulled you over because you weren’t wearing a helmet.
When you offer a candy to a toddler just to make him repeat the newest word he
learnt, well that’s corruption, just an adorable version of it however. Ask
yourself once, do you really have the right to accuse the government of
multi-crore scams when you were involved in your own mini versions of it ??
