We have experienced Nehruvian mixed economy, now we are experiencing PV Narasimha Rao's Neo-Liberalism. In these two types of systems rich became richer and richer and poor became poorer and poorer. Farmers lost their lands, became agricultural labourers and now they are commiting suicides. All the fruits of power have been enjoyed by a few capitalists and their broker politicans. By sitting in the posh IT offices can you give justice to the poorest of this country my dear intellectuals?

So you want to continue with present system without giving a second thought for some possible change !
they should not spend that much because they loose their deposit and they cant recover the money.It is good to read practically it is not possible with this kind of elections.

so much negative thoughts without giving a try ! they are thinking something progressive & you are worried about them loosing money !! no hope !
We have seen Nehruvian mixed economy, now we are experiencing neo-libralism which is as good as capitalism. In all these, it is the commonman suffered much. Rich became richer and richer and poor became poorer and poorer. Farmers became paupers and now they are suiciding. What system you would give to the millions of havenots of this country my dear intellectuals?
Very interesting to know there is already a party existing with forward thinking. We will vote certainly, and even work for them given an opportunity.I think, we should spread the message among all the learned and socially concerned people so that the party gains a momentum and take a strong position to implement these programmes. best regards,Jayaram

I shall not vote for them.The idea of paying RS 25 per hour to people working in the unorganised sector is absurd and will be detrimental to the society at presnt.
i do not think education has any relation to governance. If that was the case the IAS officers, the best of the lot could have done remarkable changes.
A typical example being the survey done by KPMG on corprorate corruption. Even in corporate level, MNC ( enron, Xerox scandal) there is bribery.

Sisya,
Please remember that IAS/IPS officers are under the full control of politicial people including ministers.
So there is no use blaming them when even the President in our Constitution does not enjoy independent powers. First we need to change the law and then blame the Government officers.
So please undertand the situation first before blaming IAS officers. The system i scorrupt because people like us vote the wrong people to power or worse still we educated ppl. never vote at all
There are billions of intellectuals in India graduating and unemployed and deperived and depressed. What intellectual is all about in India every one has mind and education is intellectual not just money power or mussel power or political power.
I heard about them few yrs back. I will vote them in coming general elections for sure (if they contest from there).I dont live in K'taka, but I will request all here who belong to B'lore to vote for these people. Even if they get a single seat, it will be a motivation for them for future. We have nothing to lose. We have already been exploited n cheated by present lot of politicians. There is no harm in giving these guys a chance. They in no way can b worse than our politicians in any party.
thiis is very interesting and this is what our country needs. Only thing we need to watch out for is the credibility of the people making these committments. If someone gives details about their backgrounds and work done that would be great. else will end up in the same garbage can.
This is a good trend and the party should engage recuriting only with good educational backgrounds and committed towards the development. All the best. I may wish to join this party in the coming days, if I get opportunity.
