Thank God We are Still Alive

 Just a months back I was thinking that we are only seem alive but actually we are dead, because for last several  years I never felt the sense of active democracy that was demonstrated by people of India in last week during protest for JANLOKPAL led by Anna Hazare and his team.
In my life I have never seen such a big public mobilization for a good cause, I have seen several political gathering  but most of the crowed in political rallies are hired these days , keeping this fact in mind it seem that Indian democracy is now taking a U turn and now soon it will not listen old song played by politician.
I visited the protest ground (RAMLEELA Ground) four time and every time I realized some new aspect of public sentiments. There are something I will never forgot and would be happy to share

Friction Less Movement :- unlike any other movement this protest was   very much self managed I never witnessed any such event of rush, most of the people were stick to honor  interpersonal distances particularly in cases of female   protesters.

Fear less protest  :-In my life this is first such are big public mobilization in which people was not afraid of miss-happening, that`s why people turned-up  it with their families. There was a good trust between people and law enforcement authorities(Police) and most of the policeman were bare hand. Though there was very minor events of clash but definitely they were not part of  protester they were ill minded  peoples who tries  to create a bad face of this protest but they failed in absolute term.

No Loss of National Property :- Another best part of this moment didn’t causes even single loss of property. In the past we have several agitations that has caused a lot of damage to national property. Thanks to all protester this time.

Nation Wide Protest : - Another positive side of this protest was that it was not limited to metro cities only, even very small cities participate as well though there was no camera their
Record Barking Turnaround:- This agitation setup a new bench  mark of public turnaround , at an average more than one Lakh turn around per day with peak gathering reaching to 1.3 Lakh.

Self funded and Self Motivated: This agitation was fully self funded , you can`t believe that people were donating of their own will. Surprising was that , after a week of agitation organizer stops taking donation and told to the public that there is no shortage of fund, this also indicates the level of transparency in the entire agitation. Surprising is all the food stall were fully organized by volunteers.

Political Outcome:- Best part of this  movement was what we saw in parliament, first time in history all the politician start singing the same song otherwise we have always felt that our parliament is turning like subji mandi . 
Moral of the entire story is that when we will start asking question to our politician they will be force to think about the country instead of Party.

JANLOKPAL: Government Still Need More Treatment

जनलोकपाल:सरकार को अभी और इलाज की जरूरत है

कल मैं रामलीला मैदान में था और महसूस किया की अब जल्दी की कोई रास्ता निकलना होगा.

पर सरकार का कहना है की बिल ३० तक पास नहीं हो सकता तो मेरा कहना ये है की अब जनता क्या करे जब सरकार ने अप्रैल से आज तक कोई रास्ता नहीं निकला तो देश कैसे भरोसा करे की आन्दोलन  ख़तम करने के बाद आप लोग आपनी बात पर अडिग रहेगें.

इस देश के आम आदमी का भरोसा अपने नेताओं से उठ चुका, है तो हम सरकार पर भरोसा क्यों करे. आपवाद हर नियम के रहे है तो इस बार क्यों नहीं, अगर समस्या है तो समाधान भी तो होगा. आखिर ये हमारी नस्लों के आने वाले   कल का सवाल है, अन्ना और गाँधी जैसे लोग बार बार नहीं पैदा होते सो आज हमें पीछे हटाना बेमानी है .  

दरसल समस्या नियम कानून की नहीं पर नियत की है , हमारे देश का संविधान बहुत ही सरल है और ऐसी दशा में वो इजतात देता है की हम लीक से हट कर (Out of the way) कोई रास्ता निकाल सकें . सो आ ये बात साफ है की सरकार हमारे साथ  भाड़ में जाओ या  डूब मरो (Go to Hell) की नीति पर कम कर रही है.

अगर प्रधान मंत्री चाहें तो ये गतिरोध ख़तम हो सकता (जहाँ चाह वहां राह ), तरीका भी बहुत आसन है ,
  1. प्रधानमंत्री सारी पार्टियों की के साथ विशेष सत्र बुलाएँ
  2. इस सत्र में जन लोकपाल के प्रमुख मागो पर आमसहमति कर एक मौसदा बिल(Bill of intent) पास करवाएं जिसमे सभी मुख्य बिंदु  आ. जाये
  3. बाकि औपचारिकाताओ का लिये एक नियत समय सीमा भी बताएं जो की देश के उम्मीदो का अनुसार हो.
पर हमारे प्रधान मंत्री जी तो मौन व्रत पर हैं , दरअसल मामला साफ है ,  ये रिमोट से चलने वाले पधानमंत्री हैं और रिमोट (सोनिया गाँधी)  ख़राब है और मरमत के लिया अमरीका गया हुआ है और जब तक वो ठीक होकर नहीं आ जाता हमें इसे ठोक बजा कर ही चलाना होगा.

इसलिय आप से अनुरोध है की  आप सब आप सड़क पर आ जाएँ और इस सरकार को थोरा और भोपू सुनाये.
जब कुम्ब्कर्ण जाग गया तो इनकी क्या औकात है . 
ध्यान रहे आने   वाला हप्ता हिंदुस्तान का वर्तमान और भविष्य बदल सकता है और ऐसा मौका 40 सालो में पहली बार आया है.

  5. क्या आप को ऐसे सांसद चाहिए जिन्होंने ने संसद को सब्जी मंडी बना दिया है?
  6. क्या आप को ऐसे मंत्री चाहिए जिन्होंने 2G , 3 G करते करते  देश का जी निकाल दिया?
  7. GWG + भ्रष्टाचार और कलमाड़ी गिरफ्तार पर कब आयेगा हमारा पैसा वापस मेरे यार?
  8. जब हमारे देश में सारे बड़े  काम सुप्रीम कोर्ट करती है तो हम टैक्स सरकार को क्यों दे?
  9. जब हमारे चुने हुए सांसद सत्ता में जाकर चोर हो जाएँ तो हम क्यों  न हो Right of Recall.?
  10. जब हमारी आप की रिटायरमेंट की उम्र 60 है नेताओ की अनलिमिटेड वैलिडिटी क्यों?
सवाल तो और भी बहुत हैं पर कलयुग के दशाननो (रावणों) के  लिए  दस ही काफी है.
इन सवालो को आपने से जुड़े हर किसी तक प्रसारित करे धय्नवाद

अश्विनी

    Do we really need a LOKPAL


    Though in am not very much impressed with concept of Lopal but I am still with team Anna because something is batter than nothing.

    Anna , Anshan , Corruption, Lokpal , JokePal  and many more in next few days. This tail does`t seem to have an end.  These days most of the news are being dumped because of lokpal .  It seems that LOKPAL is going to be our God who will save us from never-ending corruption trail.

    Now the million dollar question , what if the lokpal it self turn corrupt and chances are very high because we are corrupt from very root and lokpal is going to one of us. In this case he will be a person with endless power and it will be difficult to control him. Before calling ghost on table we must think how we are going to tame it.

    Real concern is that lokpal will create more problem than it will solve it will be an unguided missile that will be master of its own. Though there are measure to control lokpal but they do not look efficient. Let me ask the question in other way around "Who will investigate if lokpal did some corruption" ? as of not at least I am not seeing any answer.

    Actually this problem is result of our person centric thought process. We believe that person is responsible for corruption but in reality corruption is a part of system not a demerit of individual. Me and most of you have bribe at least once in our life and most of the time intent was not to promote corruption. Whenever a common man do corruption it because system left no choice. This  is where actual corruption starts and start propagating bottom to top.

    I have a very simple real life example, In Delhi more people tend to pay traffic fines when they are caught red handed but in Noida people prefer to pay bribe and sometime it higher that actual fine amount. Now tell me why people pay bribe higher than actual fine, answer is simple they do not want to get stuck in legacy process that will force them to took at least one leave from their respective workplaces. And once a constable gets bribe it start sharing with it`s superiors and chain reaction to the top of system and it further start and other reverse chain and greed that start at very top and move to bottom that forces low level employees to do more corruption.

    Actually main problem is this Need -Bribe - Greed Cycle in the system and unfortunately no one is taking care of. All our thought should be centered about that. If we look around the globe there are several countries who are able to break this "Need -Bribe - Greed" cycle. For example why no other 9/11 turned up in USA and in India any day can be 9/11.

    Solution to this problem is very simple but need political dedication and  huge investment in technology as well. It time to learn from our own corporates. Just ask one question why corruption is almost negligible when compared to same size government organization. Answer is simple private corporate are very clear in terms of individual accountability , responsibility, risk, reward and punishment (That mostly start with loss of job)

     My Solution is very simple "just improve the system" below is an outline
    1. Know your people by a unique Identity (like SSN in USA)
    2. Know what your people are doing (Regress tracking)
    3. Setup individual Responsibility, Accountability ,Reward Punishment as well.
    Moral of the story : Instead of Lokpal bill be need an Individual Responsibility & Accountability Bill that will be more effective and less expensive that white elephant like proposed Lokpal. Motive is very clear bring a law that will enforce all ongoing public work to declare that what are the work proposed or in-progress and if something went out of track then who will be responsible for what what and how much, and what will be the punishment for different type of failure for different individuals at each levels and also method of recovery in case of losses occurred.
