Today most of us, or rather to be more specific all of us, have the feeling of ME not WE. How can ME develop when WE are ashamed of holding each others hands? Even now many a times I feel that we are still under the slavery of the British. And yes, to accept it that they were very successful in their divide and rule policy as even today we stand divided. We are divided into different religions, communities, castes, and regions. Still people do not understand the relevance of religion, caste, and regions. They still think that killing is the easiest way to conquer one’s thoughts, but they don’t realize that the time has changed. The latter can also bring harm to the former as hate ignites hate. So this starts a series of hating and we stand divided again. Is there any religion in the world that supports killing? In which book of religion killing an innocent is mentioned as correct deed? Which religious epic says to fight taking its name as shelter? Till when this false shelter built on the foundation of lies stand erect? Answer, answer all you hypocrites who have built a palace with the blood of innocent people? Its finally us who have to figure out the answer. So why do we stand divided? Why don’t we come forward to reclaim our unity? Why are we not able to see the truth crystal clear? What is that element which is making our vision blurred? I would like to suggest an answer to my question here; the most obvious answer would be the lack of power of judgment in us. This is the point where all of us lag behind the world. We are easily motivated by wrong things and yes, often by wrong people. These wrong people are no one except the corrupt, uneducated politicians who just know to exploit our feelings very well so that we are guided towards the wrong path. Do they know how to work for the development of our country? But what they really know is how to create an environment of chaos around everyone as a result of which we the people do not have time to think about these problems that we are facing. We get so entangled in this web of worldly worries that we don’t have a second to closely observe our steps which decide the real priorities in our life. They just want to preserve their vote bank on the name of Ram and Rahim but the worst part of this problem is the clashes that we see, the discrimination that people face. There are many sting operation videos to enlighten their religious thoughts and ideas. The hollow principles that are uttered by these hypocrites “Sellers of the Nation” while standing on the stage in an election campaign or any small procession. These are often organized by them to tighten their political hold; and not to forget the mention of the huge crowd that is brought along with them on the promise of Rs. 50, along with a sumptuous non-vegetarian meal the end of the procession which is accompanied with alcoholic beverages like the BHASHANS they give and promises they make. The lies are so well blended with their promises like a cocktail in which one cannot figure out what’s really inside. It’s the expert who can really figure it out but what about the common people who are many times referred as Emotional Fools and nothing more than VOTE BANKS? Many of people participating in the procession are even unaware of the name of the politician. Is this why are we called a Democratic country? According to me the -cratic has been taken away from Democratic and just what remains is DEMO. Yes a Demo Country. All people give a DEMOnstration of how powerful they are and what place do they really hold in the society. Our so called Leaders are leading to a path which leads ultimately to …... You know it but I can’t say that here. Because literate and intellectual people are not the contestants and if a few of them are ready, they don’t have the tactics of generating the tactics of winning the heart of the very important thing “VOTE BANK”. They do not have in mind how to play dirty politics or in other words they want to win the elections with full HONESTY that is considered as two poles of a magnet.
