you get the government you deserve
by N K Ahuja on Oct 10, 2007 12:40 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

It is an old saying. You get the government you deserve. It is not only in Karnatka. It is happening in Centre also. No one is worried about the immediate taskd ahead. They all are thinking on how to save their fiefdoms, let country go to dogs. it does not matter whether it is the nuke deal or Ram Setu or Karnataka case. You can see the symptoms are same everywhere. The best thing that we can do is - choose people with integrity and sense of purpose, determination, focus, committment and who are true leaders.

Easier said than done! Its a process, which has to evolve! One thing that I and you can do is to CAST OUR VOTE! Almost 50% Indians do not care to CAST VOTE says it all!

As such do not play the role of a SENSATIONAL MEDIA too! Most of the channels are focusing on catching more eye balls than genuinely

The other day Arnob Chaudhary of NDTV 24x7 was speaking as if he knows everything about what is gonna happen in the future! He repeatedyl asking "Country wants to know"... "People of India want to know"... as to whats is your strategy about the possible elections etc...! It is pathetic! No one has authorized Aron to ask questions on my behalf!

We must start such movements by voicing out our opinion LOUD and CLEAR!

stanumedia, it is not just "You and I", if willing, we can spread this through our relatives, friends and asking them to spread again.
On the day of voting, we try to find an excuse to go for a short picnic. People from lower stratum cast their votes, it is obviously influenced by money or any other form of loyalty. Until and Unless, educated people comeout of picnic syndrom and vote for the betterment of state or country, unlikely anything going to change.

Do you think that you will have a chance to decide who is going to rule you. If you think so, I feel sorry for you.

Nobody in this forum, seems to have understood one basic subject. Hereunder we present as to why these people are effecting these transfers and promotions.

Please look at the nearby state of Tamilnadu.

In an open meeting forum like Tamilnadu Government Employees Organization or so, all speakers / Government officials during their speech have taken oath in the presence of His Highness Karunanidhi that he is their saviour and they have woved to see that he comes to power again and by all means they will stop Jayalalitha coming back to power. Just think, these are the people who are going to be in the booths for election. They can do anything.

Long live Arrogant Government Officials and Long live politicians like His highness Karunanidhi and Kumaraswamy.

Agree with NK Ahuja. Just want to add that each of us MUST exercise our vote if we want our voice to count.

All can provide excellent advice.You can see when election takes place,the politicians know that money plays a good role.Just like in Panchayat elections where it was said that each vote purchased for 500 or 1000 rupees,in assembly election a little more that this.So those who won in the past surely win again and thus it will be not a majority.The electorate also knows how to make money. Those govt officers now benefited surely and sincerely serve one who helped them.The BJP should also learn how to en cash the post.Hi JDS the great!!! You will surly honored by the great almighty for the great service rendered to the Karnataka people.
