Mumbai Mirror Online - Mumbai News

In our country, we seem to have unconsciously developed a culture of
The sealing controversy in Delhi highlights the link between rule-breaking citizens, corrupt politicians and civic officials nurturing irresponsibility and breaking rules.
According to S S Gill, former I&B secretary to Government of India, we are a nation of queue jumpers.
There are many people who have proved their merit, but a majority is only entitlement-minded.
This tendency of people not charting their own progress through their own efforts seems to have been encouraged by clever politicians too.
Reminds me of the Ann Rynd novels. A society which demands that any transfer must be "From him who can give the most, to those who need it the most". Are we really headed that way?

Well, I read it.....but thing is, I dont know what to comment...

I am so sick and fed up of this. People may curse me for this but I have given up on our country. It is going nowhere.

That is why I try to avoid getting into discussions abt these kind of topics..... It just increases my blood pressure and doesnt serve any purpose.

Yes, all that is true and its pertinent to all the citizens of India.

Now tell me how do you deal with such things, we are not in the ruling elite to implement or make policy changes - all we can do is spread the word, feel empathy for such articles or just reply - like i am doing

Or the only way forward is clean up on our acts - start with yourself and your immediate family - don't jump the queue even if you need to - wait for your turn. Follow all the laws/rules both written and unwritten. Don't ever heed to corruption or drill your way out by unfair and unethical means.

Can we do that day in and day out - try it out - its tough - you need more than a resolve of steel to see yourself through. Real life bites you like hell when you are on a noble path and on a noble mission

Don't forget at the end of the day we are answerable to our own consciousness Basically the youth needs to stand up and be counted or we can rant about it like hell but nothing is ever going to change.
