Always developing INDIA - Part 2

I would recommend to read the previous blog before continuing to read this one.

DISCLAIMER: If you are a pure Indian and love India more than yourself then the content might be sensitive. Read at your own risk. Also when I say India, most of the time I might be referring to Bangalore and generalizing (I may be wrong). Reader discretion is advised.

There are several infinite reasons to state why India is far behind in basic amenities compared to other countries. Earlier I use to think, the only reason behind this is "Excessive population in India". I thought, resources in this country is very less compared to the number of people available and this shortage is pulling our country behind. If we could control population, then we will soon be developing quickly. For long time, I thought this is the root problem but then started to think, this is not the only one. The other one is “corruption". People over here are addicted to corruption. If India goes in similar direction, then I will not be surprised if corruption becomes legal in near future. Especially govt. employees are pre-assumed that without getting money they’ll not work. Are they forgetting that they are getting salary or they assume salary is a bonus which comes every month? I just don’t blame them, even people (including me) will pre-assume and give money to them even if they don’t ask and get the work done! Why? Probably because it has become habit to the giver and taker! That’s what I said, sooner if it becomes legal, I won’t be surprised!

After population & corruption, I added “Politics” into my list of why India is the way it is! Politics is very dirty in our country. You may argue about, “You are wrong, its getting better now with AAP being selected etc etc”. But personally I still don’t have much of any hope. Somewhere, someone has selected AAP which most of the people are thinking is as a good sign for politics & a huge success. But what people ignore is that it is a very basic thing to happen. I don’t understand the reason of celebration. The whole idea of voting is to elect the best one and our thinking/satisfaction is so low that if we do that (electing good one), then we are celebrating! OH MAN, what about infinite issues to fix after getting elected? If we are so satisfied by just electing a good political leader, then don’t you think how low is our success rate attitude towards politics? I guess, In developed countries, the thinking of success rate attitude is like, How far is this elected person (who is pre-assumed is the bestest one) going to lead and resolve issues by maintaining equilibrium, not happy just to get him elected!

Next to my list is ‘education’ What the hell is education in this country? Ah? At cities, its all about by-hearting everything and getting good marks and at other side of villages, no education at all. The fee for a child to get into a so called ‘good educational institute’ is equivalent to an IT engineer monthly salary! Other end, govt. gives food during lunch time to attract children’s to school. Forget what will children be getting to learn over there! Why is this situation in our country? I’m not telling, all institutions are like this, coz IIM’s are really very good where even foreign student’s want to study but won’t get selected! But why isn’t there any equality? That’s the big question which leads to the conclusion of this blog. Will get back to it later but for a better county, education is very essential for every children (and they aren’t getting & if at all getting, its not THE best) as the saying goes, today’s children are tomorrow’s citizen’s!

Next thing in my list is “villages”. I don’t believe country is developed until and unless villages are developed at first. No matter, how much ever you keep on adding facilities to the cities but unless village’s aren’t improved, there is absolutely no chance of improving country. The main focus must be on villages to get developed! The people over there are so adjusted with it that they don’t even know what facilities mean! They are at a position where they don’t even want good facilities anymore (completely adjusted with however it is) It’s very sad and somehow they should be educated and must be provided with relevant information!

Another big monster in our country is caste, religion & discrimination. I don’t understand, we highlight this monster as “unity in diversity” but hell is that! Has anybody thought how much it is dragging our country back! What the hell do you call unity man? Forget about caste, religion, people discriminate with states over here! How do you define THIS? If some Andhra person is in Bangalore, he prefer other Andhra people and vice versa. We literally discriminate among different states and have issue to resolve that first! Forget about religion, caste etc! OMG! When do you think, people will be so much educated to not discriminate anymore with at least states? According to me, we are staying together with various religions and caste and creed which doesn’t mean we are with UNITY. We just have DIVERSITY and that’s all. If being like this is UNITY, then I guess, we need to re-look at the dictionary meaning of word “unity”! I am so off with the thought of just discriminating people with states, that I’m not going to waste letters in typing about caste & religion!

Next and final one is the social status or the people attitude is what I recently discovered after returning back from Taipei is major reason to pull our country backwards! The problem with indian society is what I call “imbalance”. If somebody is rich, then he is way too rich and if somebody is poor, he is way too poor. This imbalance is the devil which is spoiling our country! We don’t have equality. The attitude difference between Taipei city & over here is that MONEY is EVERYTHING, bhaad mein jaye ‘integrity’ or quality of what you do, its only about MONEY. The one who has sufficient money can RULE india on his terms which is not the case in other countries. I am not telling non-indian’s doesn’t care for money but its not how indian’s are crazy about it. To just give an example, a cab driver over there cares for his job & integrity of his work than money unlike in India! Here, people are ready to rip money out of anybody. They don’t have that integrity within himself of the professionalism of what he is doing! If you call a plumber or carpenter over here for example, they don’t focus on how good to work or about their work integrity but they only try to do little work and get most money out of it! If you ask a little bit extra to do, then they charge way too much! Consider a bus conductor over here, he tries to make money without giving tickets. What about his professionalism or work integrity? Is he supposed to do like that? Go to some education center, they always try to charge heavy and get most of the money out of you! Why?

Can’t everybody in India focus on their profession or work integrity and charge equivalent to their work’s ‘worth’? Why do they have to rip off money from next individual? To answer that, we need to circle off the whole list what I mentioned above! To sustain in this society, where there isn’t proper balance, filled with corruption & discrimination with huge population including illiteracy, every individual is blindfolded to one thing, which is MONEY and everybody is chasing before that!

In Taipei, there is equality for every profession! For example, a person working as a gatekeeper in front of a museum is having almost similar pay as a person who is barber! The same applies for a person working in police department with a person working in grocery shop or a cab driver or even an IT professional. The key point is, although there might be a very slight difference in pay (not huge) but every profession is valued equally over there. But in India, as I said, huge imbalance. Only few professions like IT /doctors are paid huge. If you do a BA or BCom or BSc, then you are considered low and discriminated! You cannot get a job to get sufficient money and get respect like doctors. This is a huge let down! I have been thinking about this a lot. For example, it starts from childhood, when parents/society starts to show this imbalance. If that child is interested in doing a mechanical job then soon child will realize or parents/society will make it clear that there isn’t any scope for it unlike some other high professions and child is forced to develop out of his interest and get into profession just to earn huge money. Suppose, if a kid would like to cut hairs of people and design, then in India, he is made ashamed of himself that will you become “BARBER”! They will laugh which makes kid to forget what he likes and tries to do what everybody does (out of interest). I can give several such examples, as a kid, I aspired & wanted to become a driver! I loved driving and but sooner I realized, how pity life is of a bus driver or cab driver in INDIA and I just forgot and left that thought! I can give several examples of this professional discrimination! In india, someone has become a teacher because he didn’t get into IT. What the HELL? Do you think, if somebody keeps doing like this then they’ll be giving their 100% and follow professionalism and work integrity? HELL NO! Similarly, somebody opens a shop because he might not be able to do anything else. Similarly somebody joins as bus conductor, coz he is not getting any suitable job etc etc etc. The main point is, we need to grow into such a level that we have to respect all the professions and treat them equally and make a flat pay to everyone! Untill this happens, I certainly don’t think, india will ever develop and forget about this this happening even until my grand children’s era!

Blog is getting way too lengthier and I’m sure you might be bored reading till this line so I will cut short few more things which I wanted to tell. Another biggest issue with our country is Indian Law. I’ll just say that it is so much damn spoiled and useless that the great Salman khan is still making films wandering freely over the indian streets by earning millions together even after killing people on road accident! We Indians are so much careless and hopeless that we don’t even bother that he is the one who had killed people for fun with drink and drive. We still enjoy his movies and just forget nicely and discuss, salman’s next movie will cross 200crore! SHIT!!! As I said, money rules india. If he just throws 5% of his earnings, nobody bothers about the case & he is SUPERSTAR! This is our great India!

Another concept is bloody hereditary money! India MUST make a rule that parents money should not be given to children! According to me, due to this concept, india is lagging. One corrupted person will earn sufficient for his next 5-6 generations and spoils the whole generations! I would not like to write more about it, you just think about it. Like Bachan or Ambani family. How much do you think they must have earned? Even for next 10 generations, their family can easily survive without earning a single penny! So forget about india becoming developed until for next 10 generations IFF we get this hereditary concept removed right now!

Well, I’m so much caught into this subject that I’m bragging ON and ON and ON. You know, how they say in relationship that you hate or get angry on somebody only because you love them. Taking liberty and applying the same rule over here, I suppose, I must have loved my country so much that I am this much angry and hating it after returning back from Taipei! But at last, No matter how spoiled my country is or let whatever happens to it in future, I still love India. Mera BHARAT Mahan!
