Trying to change
There are attempts to bring change in political climate in India through active participation of civil society. But the educated elite should play a role in this. We are going through harsh times; there is price rise of all basic foods, all consumer items; costly fuel, scarce housing, high transport cost and so on. We can see clearly that all this is due to lack of governance and mismanagement of national resources by the political elite.The sad state of the political structure is the cause for our economic lag;gross mismanagement of national wealth,lack of proper policies and total inefficiency are the makings of the present government.The present government has no idea of the gross loss to the nation, and is concerned with its own survival in the next election. The nexus between the political elite and the corporate giants has led to rise of the super rich class at the cost of the loss of resources of the country. We are trying to restore the country by bringing in new leadership who will be able to tackle the power of the political elite.And we cannot conjure up a leader or a movement immediately, but we are trying to unite the people under a religious saint, for a start. He is in the forefront along with civil society leader;he is trying to give a concrete expression to the mood of the country. There are hindrances to the progress of the people and corruption in government is just one of them. We must identify the other hindrances and we must bring together the educated elite of the country. What are the educated elite who could provide leadership and give expression to the anguish of the people doing? Watching perhaps.
