A for apple, b for bat, c for corruption!!! Unfortunately, this word is not just a part of dictionary,it is a part of our daily life also. Recently, anna hazare, a noted social worker staged a hunger strike protesting against the lokpal bill. The whole country stood beside him. Government finally accepted anna's proposal of jan lokpal bill. Everyone knows all this things and there is nothing wrong in it. But anna and his followers are now saying that in each governmental decision common man should take a major part and common man will take the final call. I have a little problem with this.
India is a democratic country and democracy means"for the people,by the people,with the people".But that doesn't mean that we have to take the decisions.There is a system in democracy . We elect a government by voting in both centre and states and they take care of all things including our well beings.But if we try to take the decisions by ourselves then the whole system will collapse. There will surely be differences of opinion. Secondly,the urban people only will be a part of it. But the huge number of rural people,without any proper idea of what is going on,will merely be mute spectators.If we really want to nail those corrupt lawmakers of our country,then we should come out in support of an 'abstain' button in the evm's to express that i don't like any one of the candidates. We should vote in each election to ensure good governance. There should be a law preventing candidates without having minimum educational qualification from contesting poles. I definitely have a power to protest against anything wrong,but that doesn't mean that i have the power to take the final call.If we try to do this,then this will lead us to anarchy,not democracy.
