Why are we not doing well?

In the year 2005, coal blocks were allocated as a means of creating revenue for the country. And in 2010 legislative amendments were made, so that it can be carried out this year. But audit of the government has shown that deals were made in a wrong manner.

Whether it is allocation of resources like coal or making deals for the army and defence, Indians in prominent government positions do not care for the nation’s wealth. We Indians make committees and more offices to conceal the off-record deals. The confusion is purposely created hide the bribes. When there is enquiry, all act as if nothing had happened. When the deals are confirmed, then it is another excuse—“We had just heard of it”

Audit reports have revealed that 10.7  crores loss was due to non-transparent deals. Now the mediocre officers will start the ‘blame game’. “I did not do it” or “they did it” and so on. Coal blocks are our nation's wealth.What was in the mind of people in high positions, while giving it away? Mediocrity here rules supreme in the affairs of the government.

We Indians when working independently make good professionals, but while we work for the government, we loose all our senses on ‘what is right’ and ‘what is wrong’. It is as if nation’s wealth is their own resource to be utilised. Sense of public responsibility is totally absent while holding key positions. This sense is not taught in any colleges. Those who do not have this sense can stay away from government.

If mediocre persons implement policies and laws it negates our national progress.The result is that people ordinary innocent citizens are suffering. Do the people believe in their government? No. For the people the daily ordeal of survival occupies their all thinking ability, they do not have the energy to give thought to “what to do about the government”

Responsibility and honesty in working for the government will come automatically by proper education. Now, it is up to the educated elite to bring reforms in mindsets of government officials for making the future of India bright.
