Its ok rupee is becoming stronger..what it has to do with common man who live in middle class colony.Nothing is changing for masses in India..come NDA or UPA..or any abc alliance..what they have done to common man.This is a country where person who has never done shopping as common man is finance minister,a man who have never attended even ncc camp is defence minister forget about if he has ever heard of a gunshot even,man who hardly travel on train by buying a ticket is railways minister..also IAS people are sports team selectors haha..I invite these loongee misniters to go to local grocery shop and find the prices and then talk about super power.In few cities big malls have come up with nike,adidas like showrooms and we r thinking we are super power.In this country we are still getting same kind of thrashing from cops..get into local bus..conductor still yell at you..go to hospital and nevr sure if these docs will remove my kidney and sell in local market..Hopeless people..get some life stop yelling about super power..get back to ground and wake up..last 20 yrs I have not seen many changes but malls only..that too running on generator power..No bijlee ..North India will have soon 8 hrs of power cuts when paddy season will start..Wake-up man wake up....

Think beyond job..common man is like u and me..we are good when we r in office..we are superior having top edge meetings..and on the exit gate of the same office we become common man..whole day in power back-up office and looking and crowd out there in the sun from tinted glass windows...when at home power outage..right ? I am also not in favour of free lunch..but paid lunch with cooking oil which is not adultrated. Dont take shelter under big names they are fine..reason common man is not having job is that he is not able bribe the selection board

There are many problems and nobody has a magic wand to solve them.
The solution has to come from you and me. We are adept at pointing out the problems and hoping others will solve them. We have potiticians who can hardly stand up or see properly holding on to power. Why, for the simple reason others are not willing to take over. These problems will never go away unless we are ready to act and do the hard work. Henry Ford had said if one feels problems cannot be solved, it cannot be solved. We need to have positive attitude.
We are carrying the old baggage most of which are irrelevant today. China wants to create wealth and they know for that disclipline at any cost is necessary. They have achieved a lot and many of us just have to marvel. There is no secret formula, only hard work and positive attitude.
We have to have a sea change in attitude. It may take time, but if each will do that little all will be done. Let us coexist. We should not stand still and hope the poverty will go away. Let us welcome the positives of modern world.
