Thread: Indian Politics

  1. #1

    Indian Politics

    India is becoming younger and younger, in such a scenario, a major question arises.

    At what age should Indian youth be allowed to practice and participate in politics?

    University students are still at a learning stage, should there be politics at university level?


    Another issue apart from university issue:


    If the parliamentary structure does not change, then is there a need to restrict voting rights?

    The main point is who should make and take decisions? What must the person's/persons knowledge bank and functional capacity to take or make a decision?

  2. #2
    Should only the salaried, educated and stable decision making people have voting rights?

    Does open for all not lead to unaccounted exploitation of nature, natural resources, slum cities, etc.,

    Selection of bad decision makers who are driven by religious, political, criminal motives, family politics, etc. will only create a self consumption economy.

    You are right. Everything is getting manipulated these days.

    Political religious mindset of some political parties

    Some political parties are still living in the medieval age of "Temples, Ram, Sita, Krishna, hanuman etc". For these political parties "king" is the supreme being and the "King" is the ruler", most of the ministers have to be either from king clan or people from religious background .


    What these political parties tend to forget is that there were "Bigger Empires" and there were empires which had no known extent.


    At one end these political parties address so called downtrodden people by making a rich politician and his family from one of the so called downtrodden community sit with them on the stage and provide a ministry because the person is from a so called downtrodden community. Politician from this so called downtrodden community is provided all the facilities from the ministry to fully support family politics, on the other had "The ruling clan" has to remain supreme.


    The main point these political parties tend to forget is "What has people chosen them for"? Who can really solve the problems: A politician? A political family? A religious person with no scientific background? Can these people really solve the problems, etc.


    What these politicians tend to overlook is that the masses they are leading and the solutions they are providing tend to go same way as the solutions provided by governments in past few decades.

    India needs to redefine concept of downtrodden and poverty.

    Reservation, jobs, education

    Is reservation being used as a source of extracting money from government machinery and producing uneducated doctors, etc.

    There is a plea that is often given that people are poor therefore a reservation in jobs and higher education must be given to uplift the poor people. Is this not totally wrong? Is this not making the entire government machinery a money extracting enterprise from the common people?

    Who suffers the most? Every class suffers the most because, the entire government machinery is wrecked and corrupted in this form.

    It is high time reservation must be stopped.

    Family politics and community politics

    Why are some families and some communities responsible for major roles in politics and important positions in government machinery.

    Can there be any plea for such structures and people?

    Kult of reservation is breeding criminals and promoting half educated, uneducated people to start a chain of corruption who are able to align with the government machinery thereby criminalizing the entire system.

    In addition some communities have accumulated vast wealth through religion, should there be a place for them in the government sectors?

    The plea of being poor?

    Who is really poor?

    1. A family/does not own land i.e. can not afford housing
    2. A middle class family who can not have food,medical support and means of quality education for children.

    If reservation continues India might go the way of Arab spring changes. Already the selection procedure is not clean or totally corrupt and the reservation will make it more bad.

    Cult of "Hum"

    What is giving rise to current failing situations in states and governments.

    I think it is the word of "Hum" as spoken by parliamentarians of this country. Family politics can be easily justified by "Hum", corruption can easily be justified by "Hum".

    "Hum", word is very nice form of escapism.

    Everything can be justified by "Hum" , "Idols/statues", can be easily justified by "Hum", " crime can be justified by "Hum", so the word "Hum" can justify everything.

    When the word "Hum" starts, no one is accountable for anything so it becomes the easiest escapist word to do anything

    Failing parliamentary structures

    India is governed by failing parliamentary structures and rise of uneducated, half educated people in political and government machinery. All this is due to wrong policies and a political system ruled by cult of samaj, religion, corruption and different cults which are portrayed through political thoughts of this country and its states.


    Is it high time to make changes in the political structures/scenario and the government machinery?

    Politics, religion and India's ancient past

    India is moving towards a society, where India`s ancient past will destroyed and India will stand on shaky ground, with absolutely no strong base.

    Closing Indian subcontinent borders has also closed mind doors of Indian population.

    Factual history loss

    Gujjars, Rajputs, Jats, and other ancient tribes are in a phase of being overtaken by religion and wrong politics, which will eventually lead to the loss of true ancient past.

    Once this past is lost it will not be recoverable.

    Ancient past of these tribes is not limited by Indian boundaries or religious boundaries.

    Age of voters should be 25, to stand for any election should be 35, for Raj sabha should be 50, beside politicians, India needs to improve and control following--IAS, film people, cricketers,business people, the condition of kissan defense personnel and professional needs to be improved, education system needs rethinking, rule of law has to be established. these are my personal views,

    This is one approach, in current conditions in India, where every politician and parliamentarians and their clan +goons are bigger than the common life of any individual, will this approach have any results, i have my doubts.

    Is there a need for a new structure?
