Anti corruption movement

The current agitation against corruption spearheaded by Sri Anna Hazare & his team has proved one old proverb that a ant can disturb an elephant if it wishes so. This type of situation arises when those who are on the ruling side shows complete antipathy towards the ruled class. In this situation two type of anti ruler movements happened, one peaceful & the other violent one. The violent movement never succeed permanently but the peaceful one always has the capacity to bring down corrupt ruling class. our government is standing on a very thin ground. They in themselves become a community irrespective of there party alignment who enjoys luxury, power , money at the cost of people. they can do anything & get away with it due to there hidden collective cooperativeness in enjoying the fruit of power , money & fame. If a ordinary Indian citizen fails to pay correctly his or her income tax , they are liable to be imprisonment but our politicians & government official can earn much more than what there actual legal earning is , nobody can do anything. See the current state of our provinces like UP , Bihar , Bengal , Orissaa etc. The living condition of a normal human being is pathetic. No electricity, worst road condition, polluted water, worst law & order situation . Just compare the status of our politician in these states & you will understand why the citizen of India is agitated to the extreme.
The politician calls Anna hazare movement attack on parliament, some intellectuals also has similar view. Whose parliament it is, is it our parliament, i do not think so & why we should go on sticking to older tradition. Do we select directly the Prime Minister , answer is no, the party selects it. If a minister is corrupt then do the citizen of India has to wait for five years to remove him. In this fast changing world we have to wait for five years to remove a corrupt parliament member.
Now the time has come we should be very alert to our right. I feel we must change the system from party to individual. The Indian people should be appointing directly the prime minister , the home minister , the defense minister & the finance minister. The citizen of India should elect directly the candidate for these powerful positions. There should be provision of referendum after every single year to judge the performance of these ministers. If the performance is found below sixty percent then the citizen of India should have power to remove him. The multy party system has proven to be failure. it propagates horse trading.
The concept of state assembly is absolutely against the law of republic one & united India. Every small zone wants to be a new state, the politicians vested interest lies in this. New state means new assembly, More money for them to spend on there own welfare. Just take the example what has happened to jharkhand . who has been benefited after its emergence as a new state. Why would people of India spent twice on elections , one for MP & then for MLA's. Why can not the MP only takes the responsibility of running his or her constituency. There are bureaucrats also as a second line of administration. Why there are separate taxes & regulations across various states. You have one rule one taxation culture if India is one.
The politicians has only there welfare in there mind that's why they will never bring any radical changes which will take out India from the shackles of poverty, apathy & ignorance. It is we the people of India who has to rise & bring the radical changes in Law which is by the people , for the people.
