Leadership in India

60 years back we got independence from British rule. Unfortulately Independence has come up with scar of partition. British India has divided into India & Pakistan. And this division leads to genocide at western and eastern sector of British India. Every one has lots of expectations from the Indian leadership..in reality we have not achieved so much with respect to other countries who are at same level as India during 1947 - 48. I am not negative here..but overall picture of India is really not good - we are divided on the basis of religion, casts, language and the national politics are revolving around these things. Basically our leadership is nothing but a bunch of opportunist who don't want us to unite, they want to "divide us and rule". Curruption is deeply rooted into the government machinery. Sometimes it is really scary for "AAM AADMI", the situation around us forced us to think that are we really secured. Security is the basic need of human kind and if this is not available to "AAM AADMI" then we have to rethink about our national policies, vision etc.

How we can get rid of this ? THere is no straight forward answer to this but at the same time we can say that there is a solution which required contribution from large masses to eliminate some of the "national devils" like castism, cast based reservation, division on language, religion based division etc.

FOr example : To remove cast based reservation we can implement the following, the economic and social support should be given to those who are very poor ( irrespective of casts, religion ) and help them in their education and day to day life so that they can be at par with others in all aspects and yes their would be some amount of reservation in job as well. THis way we can create examples for whole world. Today if we see our reservation policies it is not reaching to everyone and this policy has no future except to create more division in society.

We must not forget that this country is belongs to multi ethenic and multi religious society. No matter what is our language, what is our religion, what is our cast ....this country belogns to all of us. And if we understand that and try formulate the policies which would be beneficial to "all" than "majority" then we will able to create right kind of environment in this country. Then we will able to resolve lots of issues which are just in "As-IS" form and our great politician are trying to take advantage of them.

In one sentence if we want to see our country is going in a right direction then each one of us has to own the problems and we have to contribute towards resolving those problem on national level. We just can't igonre these problem because we are "Aam aadmi" - this is not our job ..this is politician's job. This kind of attitude has to be changed in our mindset. Ofcourse "Lead India" initiative is a "nice" initiative taken by Times group but we have to take such initiative on large scale. then only we can make difference.

In my opinion we require a new society which should be without any caste, religion, language and other so called Social dividers. This society should work only for the benefits of country and each Indian citizen should activiely participate in such initiative and make sure that all the issues should be resolved in a proper way.
Is this possible?
