60 Years of independence
by Sivaraman Srinivasan on Aug 06, 2007 02:52 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

It is really shocking that both the state government and Central Government grossly ignoring the plight of common people. It is more than a week since BBC showed pictures of flood marooned villages/villagers. They have grossly delayed calling the Army for help and the help is inadequate.

Are we really heading towards to become a Super Power. It is not powerful are we. It is important to prove how caring are we towards our own people (atleast when they are in distress)

As per our former President, Dr. APJ. Abdul Kalam, India should achieve Super Power status in 2020.

But due to the cheating by the corrupt politicians, there is no chance for India to become Super Power even after 2220.
