RE:LET THE BRITISHERS OR US PEOPLE RULE INDIA
by Charles Srinarayan on Jul 16, 2008 04:10 PM

Rajesh, I do not know how young or Senior you are. We do not need Brits or Yankees to rule us. We need someone like Indira Gandhi. If you lived as a grown up during the emergency era in 1975 imposed by Indira Gandhi, that was perhaps the best era of this country in terms of vigilance, discipline, zero crime rate, zero black marketing/ black-mailing etc. Street lights used to come on at 5.00 p.m., and government officials were in their seats 10 - 15 minutes before time. no one dared to take extended coffee / smoke break. There was no bribery in the govt depts and law and order was at its best. This is what this country needs to progress. People need to fear the law. People must live in countries like Singapore to know what is freedom with responsibility. You do not find cops anywhere, yet people fear the law terribly that they not only abide, but also report if there see anyone breaking the law. Sigh .... we can only dream
