India is a welfare nation. This means govt role is not limited to collecting tax and protecting life and property It has also the responsibility of overseeing the growth of the people by ensuring that adequate food, shelter are provided to them. Also implementing proper Health and education program to ensure general health and literacy of the people. In short it is the responsibility of the state and central government to see that all welfare measures are implemented and monitored.
We the people therefore elect our government under parliamentary democracy to ensue we as a nation as much as people remain a story of growth, development and prosperity(GDP) However the stark reality is an altogether a different story..A story of horror,plight,pain and insecurity.
We are today the nation that has become politically bankrupt. Politicians and political parties are lost in fighting out for power, greed and vengeance. Our Parliament remains paralyzed with non performance. The country has become an open house for crimes& criminals, scams& scam esters and terrorist&terrorism. India has to a greater extent becoming a land of chaotic political confusion drifting in a sea of of mismanaged priorities.
In this country every12 hours a debt ridden farmer commits suicide due to abject poverty. We as a country are talking of nearly a quarter of million farmers committing suicide. This means two farmers a day are committing sucide since last15 years. The figure by all count remains a crude stab and a slap on the face of our governance. Yet no political or social leadership have ever stood their ground in protest.
Now when a frustrated common man slaps on the face the politician and minister who incidently happens to be also responsible for farmers plight, the attack is strongly condemned in the parliament. This is the irony of our Democracy. If we can't laud Harminder Singh for his brave act, we the meek at least can collect courage to condone his act of SLAPPING on the FACE.
