Understating the crowd mentality!!!!!!!!!!
by ather khan on Aug 29, 2007 12:16 PM

Dear Friends,

I am not justifying the misdeeds of the crowds. My aim is to understand the phenomena and how we can overcome/avoid such incidents.
This kind of incidents are not related to certain caste and religion as is ample clear with recent incidents of Guhana(Haryana
), Kanwarias, Gujjar community in rajasthan where the state was held on ransom for approx 10 days. the problem lies with our degenarating moral values.
Everyone agree that when we pass through our college days we see goon culture being professed and propagated. Things get resolved only when there is a mob pressure on the authorities and mob mentality is that since so many people are involved , no body will be caught or minimal action will be taken.

We have to get out of this mentality to solve this problem. In order to develop this we have to keep a close watch on our near and dear ones so that they do not involve in this sort of mentality specially during threir adolscent period when their adrenalin is rushing for every small things. This is only a part of solution. Of course state administration has to be fair and prompt in taking action.
But we in this forum should pledge that we will not let this culture prevail in our near and dear ones.
