Power Game

Yesterday evening the municipal corporation of Mumbai came with a truck filled with Garbage cans, they distributed one for each building in Bandra. I was pleasantly surprised to see this. All these days we had to make do with 1 garbage can for a lane having more than 10 buildings! Well so I went to have a closer look at this new green colored dabba, it was marked 'With efforts of Ms Dutt'..our MP here! Why at all she should take credit for any thing so basic as this? What purpose does this solve..may be if she looses the next election the next MP will remove these cans as they dont bear his name.

So on our country's Independance day I still feel we as a nation are not yet born..we continue to live in feudalistic state, our ploticians are our kings and we are mere pawns in their game. Was this what Gandhi or Nehru or our freedom fighters had in mind? Just the color of the skin of our rules have changed!

What we have lost is our morals, we as a nation lack principles..Liberal and pro development thinking is non existant here. We can just perhaps talk..look at Mumbai this city needs revival..I can smell garbage everywhere , yet I see bang opposite to my house Birthday wishes being displayed for some minister by his pets!

Everyone here is trying to make his point, bearing a name on a garbage bin has become so vital ? such is a state of this land.

Just then I hear 'Ae mere vatan ke logon' a patriotic song being blared out from the loudspeakers, on this day of our independence with ofcourse pictures of Gandhi and Nehru and the local MP in the backdrop, plus the well wishers of that party.. as they our patriotic people realise their love for this nation. So theory here is you get power then people who dont have it but want it can butter up the ones who have it. They support each other and that's that to it.
