It is a pleasant surprise!Where were you all these days? Or only I could not notice you in these columns.You are right in most of the points. Nothing better can be expected in this country. (please don't label me as a pessimist) AS LONG AS 1.The countrymen and a large party like to be the slaves of one family, that of Nehru. 2.A party can rule for a considerably long time based on this inheritance and without having any leaders of substance in present times 3.Party leaders not having any principle, ethics or consistant values like Mayawati, Mulayam,Amar singh,Lalu,Karuna Nidhi, Jaylalitha, Devegowda,Sharad Pawar, Thakres, etc can become the CMs, PMs and king makers 4.Politicians break or make communalism and casteism to their political advantage and these folks used as vote banks do not mind or understand the exploitation 5.So called intellectuals criticise dirty politics but do not want to clean it by participating 6.The media has no values other than TRPs 7. Real (proven and unproven)criminals are elected as MLAs, MPs 8. I stop

It is time to amend the constitution limiting the period a person can be in the parliament say 20 years total. No person should be in the chair of Minister for more than 10 years. For political parties- The President and General Secretary should not hold the chair for more than 10 years. I doubt any political party will agree to this suggestion.
