WHO WILL RING THE BELL THE CONFUSED NATION THAT WE ARE... BUT STILL THE COUNTRY IS GREAT! A policeman kills a leopard that is actually attacking a villager, and instead of being felicitated he is booked for the crime of saving a human being at the insistence of some Wildlife Organisations. A nation where Rice is Rs.40/- per kg and SIM Card is free. Where a pizza you have ordered reaches home faster than an ambulance or police, even if you were being murdered or having a heart attack A nation where A car loan is charged at 5% but an education loan, so necessary for our youth is charged an interest of 12% A nation where students with 45% get into elite institutions through the quota system and those with 90% are sent away because of merit. A nation whereA millionaire buys a cricket team, spending crores instead of donating the money to any charity. A nation whereTwo IPL teams were auctioned at 3300 crores, yet still a poor country where people starve for two square meals per day. A country where Ordinary salary tax payer is punished/fine for error in paying little less in tax,but the IPL collecting thousands crores has not paid any income tax and no body has issue on it. A country where Footwear is sold in AC showrooms, but the vegetables we eat, are sold on the footpath and very often next to garbage dumps. A nation whereEverybody wants to be famous, not by doing good for others, but by looting others and finally getting their names in the newspapers through some scam or other! Its a strange nation we live in, where assembly complex buildings get ready within a year while public bridges, flyovers and sea links take several years even to get off the drawing board and another decade to be completed We have malls, and sky-rises, with slums forming their boundary wall. A country where men and women squat on railway tracks, with no where else to go while watching them from windows, are couples with three bathrooms and one for the guests A country where politicians who are supposed to serve the people accept money from the same people they are supposed to serve, then take a salary from the government for their services to the people We are a nation where we talk in hushed whispers about the corruption in the country and then dig into our pockets to bribe a cop when we are caught cutting a red light. A countryWhere to get service in police needs minimum qualification a graduation,Whereas no qualification is required to get elected to run the govt. A country Where our soldiers are arrested on border and jailed by neighbouring countries and do not get proper food/ facilities, whereas militants from neighbouring countries when arrested and jailed in our jails are served biryani on demand. Think about it; we are a confused nation, aren’t we??
