Code of Conduct and Modis`
by Ashwani Arora on Dec 05, 2007 07:56 PM

Raising communal passions is definitely a crime and it is obligatory to adhere to code of conduct. However in our social, political environment, raising communal, racial, caste based feelings seem inevitable. In this transition period of democracy, Restraints must creep in to strengthen democratic practices.More,we are balanced-faster will be improved climate.
It is true-all factors not being equal and communal agenda is always initiated by Congress at State or Centre.It will be unrealistic, not to expect backlash. Reactions are normal. At the same time, persons in Constitutional seats or
offices like Chief Ministers, Bureaucrats have far greater responsibilities to subscribe to fair practices. There is no end to fanatic speeches and raising communal passions-once the rhetoric starts. To maintain peace and harmony, we need to redefine the agendas of elections.
Unfortunately, reactions and hate agenda, communal agenda always governs the elections. People have never responded positively to development or system programmes.Still-it is vital for us all to understand- the importance of Development agendas and must opt for it with clarity. The line of development programmes has to be longer than that of communal agenda. Politicians will move in that direction.
