HEARD ON THE STREET

Throw away your principles, values, virtues and imbibe all the baser instincts of life to give a go to all kind of lusts and be successful in all walks of life.

We, the people of India elect you to legislature to be our masters, to rule us, to have access to all the luxuries of life at our expense and in return give us all miseries.

A politician was once asked by a friend as to which profession he will choose for his academically brilliant son. Pat came the reply,' A good job in a multinational after doing an MBA'. 'Why not Indian civil service for him', Quipped his friend. 'No, I would not like him to be at the mercy of Indian polity, a vast majority of whom has no respect for any professional excellence, any human virtue or even a human being who does not subscribe to the principle of  'you scratch my back I will scratch yours'.

Of late a question on the supremacy of democracy vs bureaucracy is being raked up by certain politicians. One fails to understand as to what is the bone of contention. To any true Indian whosoever talks and performs in the national interest is supreme. Loyalty to the nation is the first and last expectation from all citizens of the country and different organs of state machinery have been created in the constitution to ensure that national interest is supreme. And each and every member of the machinery is supreme at his own place. When will the powerful individuals, power centres and lobbies understand this?
