More than enough has been discussed about terror and the discussion, I feel, now going nowhere. Perhaps we are very practical and know what we cannot do. But we do not know what we are capable of. Mr. Amitabh Bachchan is now sleeping with his firearms in the drawer. We are busy  minding our own business. And sound sleeping in our sweet home until one new blast will wake us up. 

Parliament is forwarding some instruments to fight against terror and we think that everything will be alright soon. No, certainly not. we have to demand full transparency in the legal and procedural activities of GoI. We should demand action in the stipulated time and zero failure of the Investigating agencies.

 Pakistan is rightly denying every charges against Pakistan and Pakistani nationals. After all, it is shameful to accept the blames of Indian Govt. They have to answer their people. But what hurts me is the mindset of Pakistani people. Actually, it seems, the general public of Pakistan has no hate towards the terrorists and they never demanded wiping out of terrorisn from their land. We have nothing to do in this matters. Really, if the so called Jehadis make hell of Pakistan, we don’t care but they should not enter into our life.

 Very soon we are going to vote in our parliamentarians and we should make sure not a tainted person should be elected. And I request and propose to choose and vote for only the two main parties so that the Government will have not to compromise on its policy and particulars for the sake of regional small parties.
And if we select young dynamic people and send them to form Government, it will be much better. After all, senior veterans of politics will find place in the Upper House who can rein in the excess youthful adventure of the Young Government.

hi ,

this is ajay , an indian citizen and a resident of mumbai who is also fed to the teeth with the nonsense going on in the media with respect to CM election and the no-action or inaction on our part to any nonsense that goes on in our land whether it is bad roads , terrorist attacks ,  flooding etc

common man is bearing the brunt of everything and we are also ensuring that this thing continues on live tv.

we need to put an end to this and look ahead and hence i suggest a 7 point program which should be taken up asap – as initial steps for a better india.

action points which should be done asap
(1) reelection of entire parliament – based on entrance exams , qualification , gd  – discussion of issues , at least 5 years of social service record and retirement age of 60 . everyone who is currently above 60 should be sent on permanant tirth-yatra.

(2) free and compulsory education for all upto ssc – if someone does not educate his/her child – the bread winner will have to pay a fine – maybe 1000rs a year – so some such value.

(3) police should be given min salary of 30 for new joinees and 50k after 2 years of service , senior officers should get min 1 lakh as salary and free insurance policy , free housing and education for kids and latest equipment – along the lines of isreali police and vehicle for travel. they must get 3 paid leaves a year with family of 1 week each. in case anyone is caught taking a bribe he should be hanged in public or be in jail for life.

(4) armed forces – should be given min salary of 50k- entry level and going upto 2 lakhs for a senior officer who has completed 2 years service apart from benifits mentioned above. same punishment if caught in any offence. latest equipment should be made available along the lines of isreali armed forces.

(5) election should be made online or by sms and in case of villages it should be done by officers who will go house to house to take votes – this elimitaes booth capturing as there are no booths
and anyone caught doing anything wrong should be put in jail for min 10 years plus 5 lakh fine.

(6) every city should have a rapid action force ready in air , land and sea – who have shoot to kill order ready.
all armed forces , police and rapid action force will not be controlled by policians. they will be independant bodies who will have their own CEO type structure as we have in multinational organisations- who will be accountable for every damn thing they do .
so a police can shoot a politician if he finds him a threat !!!.

(7) citizens need to talk to the new policians – face to face -  every 2-3 months and take stock of the situation – like a team meeting. if any politician is found to be not ok should be changed asap – then and there.

and the most important thing is for the media to understand that they should not give forum to terrorists like musharraf – who is responsible for killing 2000+ indian lives in kargil and still …. to this day indian media is giving him the forum to talk against our country .

Fellow country men & women,

This is not the time to blame who went wrong or who went right, this is a time to think what can be done, how can things be changed.

Because the fact is simple, this is do or die, perhaps more desperate than our struggle with the British Empire.

This is now coming down the question of our very existence and our way of life be it civilized, crowded, happy, sad, poor or middle class, we as a people will no longer have the right or means to live our lives unless we take some action, RIGHT NOW!

Things that we can force the government into doing

1. Setup a Homeland Security Department, run by a Armed forces general or higher ranking officer, with no political bias.

2. Setup a central database, of people, of companies, of floor plans, etc etc, to be used for data mining and gatherting of intel, to be kept under strict supervision of the Armed forces.

3. A Strict coast-border survillence system, satellites, people, whatever is needed.

4. Ask for help from USA. UK, they wil help us in gathering intel, as well as setup of such agencies, especaclly now that USA has new president who is eager to show that he cares for the entire democratic world.

Every civilised nation has these basic systems to fight terror, and other violent uprisings

I know that seting up a central database will take away some civil libeties, but what are we doing with those liberties anyways?
we are freely dying off for our nation while the politicans count and gather votes.

We must never sacrifice our values, not in the face of terror, or injustice or corruption, no compromise.

It is just the night before we vote for our State Govt. Obviously I shall vote and we will vote with our conscience. But there are matters which throw  questions to our minds and hearts…

1.We all are aware what is happening in Mumbai. And our leaders are responding like you know what. They are politicising the terrorism. Hell! Shouldn’t they just stand on a platform and say that we are Indians and we are One.There is no color, no religion, no nationality of terror. They have no body, what they have is a evil-atma. We should suck out that and we should do it collectively and strongly. Our political leaders shoud wake up now and shake their soul. Or when..?

2.Now when we discuss why the youths tend to incline to the illegal or unethical deeds. I just want to ask or make you think one thing. What will the traffic police do if they caught you or me on the road on a bike riding without a helmet? They will fine us simply… Now I ask all why the processions, of each and every party, of candidates seeking our votes are not just stopped by the very prompt Delhi Traffic Police? They have some 50 to 150 bikes carrying 2 or 3 persons without a single helmet. So why should not we break the rules as such, the law… And if I am a law abiding people of India, why should I vote these law breaking candidates…

These are really soul-burning matters and so the youngs don’t care to care about the rules and regulations of our Nation…

I am sorry but hope we will change this situation…

Let’s remember India is our Nation more than of some while kurta clad Leaders.
We make them leader, they don’t make us Voters.

Let’s remember that a terrorist is a terrorist is a damn terrorist…

First, we will not forget this incidents and all the past incidents.
We will seek from every party and every person who ask for our votes a
plan to fight terrorism and to sanitise whole nation of this menace…
Second, we will ask for a strict and stringent law which punish the
guilty actually…

And please vote!

Please vote for our nation which is I-N-D-I-A with all capital letters…

1.I feel that the young and middle-class people should participate in elections. And I think that the young candidates of various parties are ideally overpowered by the veterans of their parties. But I believe that we should be more suportive to them, vote them as a-lot-promising independent candidate would lose the race due to limited sources and unawareness of Indian voters. I expect a lot from young Leaders of various parties.
2.I never thought that our seniors are burden for our persent, or for the future. What I want to say that the Young Leaders or MPs and MLAs of various Political Parties had their own ideas, values and aspirations; but in the presence of the seniors they could not be able to publish and flourish their true selves.
One example I can present— Why political leaders in India should don Khadi, Kurtas, Bandh-galas etc., when general public never hesitate to wear western attire even during marriage or puja ceremonies. This is, in my view, due to too much effect of stereotype political ethics burdened by senior leaders. This is, perhaps, the first lesson of politics that the leader should look like the aam janta, this is the very first wrong step he takes.

In short, I think a leader should look what he is– a farmer should look like a farmer, a businessman should look like a businessman etc.–and should serve as politicians.
