Future political issues

By electing a party which was against dynastic rule, citizens have shown their might and their aspirations. It was in the yesteryears that people had voted for the generally accepted rulers--Nehru Gandhi family. But now people have exercised their power to vote against them. This shows that citizenry is quite aware of what is going on and how to bring a change. Future citizens will exercise their power to vote for leaders who will improve living conditions of the people. Living standards have improved for the urbanites but rural people are in great need of improvement in conditions in their environs.Political issues will be on working conditions of workers, on wage raises, on cost of electricity, cost of piped water, on sound welfare schemes. Questions will be raised on why there are no single standards in teaching in schools; why college fees are beyond the reach of the average Indian; why is unemployment rate so high; why the health schemes are meant for the affluent only; why are there so much income variation amongst people. Why equality amongst classes remains in paper and never becomes reality? Even if assured by law, will Indian society allow gender justice for its female population? Quality of air and quality of water for the people will become big issues. Tussle for power will be between the industrialists and the workers. Industrialists will try to use money power and the ordinary people will use their voting power. Struggle for a higher standard of living will go on and on.
