'In' Dependence India...

Today , the day 2011-08-17, just 2 days back, we have celebrated proudly our 65^th independence day here in Athlone.).. I am writing this with my little knowledge and how I am personally feel about my Independent India. Recently the hot topic in India is the people movement started to fight against the corruption and people are whole heartedly supporting a wise man Anna Hazare. Present Congress govt is in a situation to pass Jan LokPal bill. Most of the people who support Anna Hazare don’t know about the Jan LokPal bill (Including Me)... But it’s not bad to support a person who tries to fight against corruption being made by politicians…..That’s always a welcome one...

But, what about the corruption/bribes/ done by public (so called supporters who are supporting the JanLokPal) … If at all JanLokPal bill is passed, will every one of us who supports this movement stop giving bribe and be ethical?? When I was talking this to one of my friend, he said one very simple thing which has a depth to think and made me to write my anger in this…Nowadays, People ( with knowledge or without their knowledge) started giving bribe and taking bribes just like that..

Few incidents which made me think like that,,

In my office itself, people produce fake bills and claims more money for their own welfare.

If caught by Traffic police without following the rules, will people (so called supporters against corruption) face their charges by paying penalty in the court??? I am 100 % sure, 90% of our people gives bribe and escapes from their mistake!!!

Will people follow the proper protocols to get any government work to be done without giving bribe???

Will people be daring enough to ask if any shop sells their products more than its retail price??

These are not just the file dialogues I put, it’s my real experience. People who are strongly opposing the corruption just have to think for a minute, are we doing things ethical??? Its not just politicians are corrupt. The only thing is, our media put them in limelight so every one of us is blaming them.

I am just thinking, what’ the difference in getting 50Rs or 5000 crores as a bribe???? If I am not feeling shame of myself in getting 50Rs as a bribe, how can I be shame while getting 5000 crore… All are same.

Unless we change ourselves, no Jan LokPal could save India from Corruption. It’s mere waste of just supporting for sake of publicity through all social media’s.
