Quotas
You cannot simultaneously admire MBC, OBC, SC, ST etc.,
caste politics for votes and build a nation to be proud of in the comity of
nations.
Quota stirs are blackmailing politicians at the state and
Center level and making politicians insincere and non-caring for development of
India as a whole. They are sacrificing good for India immersed in caste vote
bank politics. Quotas will make politicians to take a stand which the
politicians are not capable of. Politicians want to eat the cake and have it
too.
Indiscriminate, corrupt and inefficient Politicians
dominated Indian democracy. They cannot do anything useful and do not allow any
fair dealing lest they lose their power.
For, they continuing in power and also bring in their
family members, kith and kin into power politics, the politicians are indulging
in vote bank politics and showering of freebies at the expense of national
financial and economic health.
Can the nation afford to continue catering to the whims
and fancies of current set of selfish people as politicians?

Youth and Role Models
It is not teachers who inspire Indians. It is not
scientists who inspire Indians. It is not philosophers who inspire Indians. It
is not poets who inspire Indians. It is not writers who inspire Indians.
It is not spirituality and ancient Indian wisdom which
inspire Indians. It is none of musicians, sculptors, artists, and other experts
in fine-arts and crafts and skills who inspire Indians.
It is not nature which inspires Indians. It is not
adventure which inspires.
It is movie stars who inspire Indians. It is
sports-persons, who make money of certain games, inspire Indians. It is
politicians who inspire Indians. In a bizarre way it is persons who illegally
and in corrupt ways amass money are inspiring Indians as many Indians have been already tutored by circumstances to love "progress", "growth", have all comforts of life by hook or crook towards materialism, consumerism and atheistic ways of life.
It is CEOs of various Indian and multi-national
corporations who inspire Indians.
It is not bad that above category of individuals inspire
Indians. But the culture, civilization, values and sagacity should also inspire
Indians; so that the role models from solely money categories do not dominate
Indian youth; which is becoming detrimental for these young Indian men and
women to become fine and nice human beings.
This is a serious sociological problem; unless addressed
to and remedies taken, becomes a gigantic psychological problem in relation to
human relationships, values, and as a whole to the human dignity, humaneness,
compassion and nearness and dearness.
Human - beings will become robots or demons in the
absence of proper human bonds, connection and communication.

Spirituality
India which boasts about its spirituality and spiritual
seers, is now successfully changed into a nation where money making is
glorified and celebrated at the expense of spirituality and spirituality is
completely neglected and relegated to corner and individuals making money and
only money matters are encouraged. It is the greatest irony of our times. Money
making is essential but the way it replaced spirituality and cultural and
civilized values that many are mocking at spirituality.
Added to this the state-sponsored and or self-created
"spiritual" masters are completely changing the face of Indian
spirituality and its Grace and Poise. "Spirituality" of a new kind is
initiated and commercialized spirituality so arrogantly and with full of
disrespect; that seers and sanyasis of the yore will have condemned the commercial
spiritual workers of today to no extent and will have seen that such
"masters' and "Gurus" are discredited and ridiculed publicly for
their lust for money and all material comforts they are "enjoying"
and should have shamed them for their lack of any spirituality.
