bicameral country

Arjun Singh addressed as “The Biggest Bastard on Earth” by many; has finished his job smoothly as planned by Congress, but are we done with our job!... seems like we tried a lot, almost every metro city has showed it’s anger, like we did when India lost a cricket match in world cup. Is it as important as winning a world cup, for some it may not be. They can waste their whole day in watching a match and praising and abusing their players, when they were supposed to fulfill their responsibilities as their players did. They would read the whole sports page filled with cricket news but never look at editorial page. Any ways…

AIIMS, IITD and other medical and engg. Colleges from Delhi really tried well even against Supreme Court’s decision. IIT Kanpur and Roorkee used press conference and silent march and thought that that’s enough, IIT Chennai didn’t even think of its necessity.

At the end we got nothing and Arjun Singh was still at the same position even after facing all this followed by a pathetically faced interview by CNN-IBN. Those (like me) who were expecting something from other parties were really disappointed when BJP came up with idea of reservation for poor Brahmins (say general category). I thought, is there any one left who needs reservation? Is there any need of taking exams rather than distributing them according to reservation percentages? Even Paritran (a party by 5 IITians, whose president did his MS from Georgia tech) with all its members as well educated personalities could not stand for Education, they couldn’t even try to stop massacre of several hearts which stopped before applying for JEE / CAT / PMT, I had great expectations from them but they ruined it.

One suggestion from my side for Arjun Singh and Congress, why don’t they think of amendments in personal laws and divide our country in “General” and “other categories” properly in a straight forward manner rather than using reservation as a tool for it indirectly. Make new personal laws named “General laws” and “Backwards’ laws” instead of the present system which is based on religion like currently we have “Hindu law”, “Christian law”, ”Parsi law” and “Muslim law” (after knowing about these personal laws, I could understand why they show four differently dressed people in a small poem “hum sab ek hain” taught in class I or II).I don’t understand what is definition of secularism, dictionary says “where we treat all from different religion similarly” but here in India, as secular country, we treat all of them in intirely different way depending upon their religion and personal laws. Any ways, one thing is sure, if Congress follows this idea then they will do at least good job eliminating a Babel (“Muslim laws” are frequently referred as it) and Muslim girls will get troubleshoot from all the contemporary problems of Muslim laws which sanctions degradation of women through their confinement to homes coupled with the freedom of bigamy and whimsical divorce on the part of men (bigamy for men and that is even when percentage of women with respect to men is much lower in India, what a crap!). Thanks to modernization or say westernization which made, Sania Mirza and girls from Miranda House Delhi, able to violate these laws.

Actually its not Arjun Singh’s fault, even Congress hasn’t done anything wrong, all they did was to improve their position…Improve????? How can they enjoy when whole country is opposing them, at this rate they should be out of governance next time….the answer lies in our mentality.

When I was at home during elections, I asked my neighbour if he was coming with us to vote, he replied reluctantly, “my single vote won’t change results”. I was astonished and then felt pity for my country where people think like him, but soon I realized its not just him but many others specially general category people take voting in a similar fashion. They are too busy to vote. Many of the students and employees didn’t vote because their native place is not in Allahabad and they don’t have time to get documents modified. The worst part is even if they vote they are never united like SC / ST / OBC. That’s the reason why politicians can afford to oppose “General Category”. If you are not valuing your vote it means you are neglecting yourself then how can you expect Government to take care of you.
