  2. “India’s fate in the hands of Uneducated-Indian-Ministers
    It has been a queer enigma that forces me to think about it each time when I have some time to think of my India and Indians, it is not only me, but every educated Indian who has thought about it, felt strongly about it.
    Educated Indians fate in the hands of Uneducated-Indian-Ministers? Now this lost its significance in works which are never highlighted its in the media and fail to grab public attention.
    The crux is that, we as "educated" individuals have got all the time to crib about situations, but have rarely found ways to change them.
    I tend to remember a very intriguing line somewhere a long time back. It said that "All men desire peace, but very few desire those things that really bring peace". So true as it is, I find of my Indians in a situation which is very similar state right now- “The question "Why Politics and Education always seem to be running a race in completely opposite directions in India?"
    Why the hell do we, again quote, "educated" individuals, always run away from politics? We always want the government to behave the way we want it to, but if we just introspect a bit, what have we at all done to make sure that the governments at-least hear what we need and want out of them. Do we really expect them to come to our doorsteps and ask things? I know they make promises which they never fulfill, but how many times have we punished them for not doing so?
    Are we so helpless that we cant do anything? Or is it just our lethargy that has created so much of inertia that we fail to move a bit - even when the cities are taken hostage and the girls are raped under open sun? Are we all really waiting for things to happen to us before we realize that it is our onus to take action and set things right.
    Why are the educated individuals so averse of even touching politics and taking the reins in our own hands? Most of the times you question an "educated" citizen about his involvement in politics, you would perhaps hear, "Main seedha saadha aadmi hoon, politics ke khel mein mera kya kaam?" ... Yeah?... So true, I know damn too much to enter politics, it is meant for criminals and illiterates. It really pinches all of us when we compare the backgrounds of our politicans with those of America like “Mr. Obama”. Our politicians have histories of crimes, and an education they cant even prove they have from the universities which are same like them.
    And at the same time, countries are being run by law scholars from Harvard and Rhodes scholars - the real intellectual lot. And then we crib of all the problems. Shame on us, shame on India's educated youth, who knows only rights, not duties; who knows only how to demand, not give.
    Let's rise together, let's pledge to be a part of the system - take your first step, Begin Voting to educated minister or in case or not right person in election stop to cast your valuable vote and let government to understand the power of your vote..!!
