India is a developing country. This is what I am hearing since a long time. And I am patiently waiting when the time will come when India will be called a developed country. I am proud to be an Indian but what I am doing for my country for it to prosper in what every Indian thinks and is what I think too. But is this the reality.
I am just a simple citizen of India and not a VIP yet. The question that arises to my mind is who is a VIP of India? A VIP (Very Important Person) of a country is he whose decisions benefit and matter for the development and the welfare of the country if I am not wrong. But do all the VIP’s in India deserve to be called VIP’s? Or are they just power savvy? Or do they want to come in power just to fulfil their own material desires? I know there are always exceptions. There are some great people like Dr. Abdul Kalam, Dr. Manmohan Singh in today’s India who truly care for India and have done some great deeds in the past. But even they have to bow down to the majority who may not be as patriotic as them.
So what is the reason why India is not a developed country yet? People are absolutely correct when they say that poverty, illiteracy and unemployment are the reasons why India is not prospering. I too believe that these are few of the reasons why India is not where it should be. But don’t we see that the Indian Government has come up with so many initiatives and different Yojana’s in the past and today? So much of our tax money goes towards these Yojana’s. But is all the money used for the very purpose is the question? So if India is still not prospering then the only reason that comes to my mind after seeing the various scams of today involving VIP’s of India is ‘Corruption’. All those who have spoken or have acted against corruption have been either ignored or have been troubled by the Government. But I believe that not to give up is the key. We all can be the change and play an important part in ‘India against corruption’ movement in some small ways. The time has come when each one of us must join hands and become united citizens of India and refuse to entertain the corrupt officers who take bribes to get our work done. I believe that to see the change you have to be the change.
Jai Hind!!!
