Well what to say for the media in India anymore, you had an incident in a remote corner of India where a bunch of self styled goons of a small moral brigade go and beat up some girls and its flashed on to us for days. A guy accused of hate speech is shown and discussed time and again on prime time with the same conclusion i.e. law will take it course. These laws are insufficient in any case of there perceived brand of Hindutava, but they are sufficient for any terrorists.
They flood us with irrelevant news time and again. Discuss them over prime time and the real issues are skirted under the carpet. When the law is taking its course they want to follow it, when it does not they don't want to cover it. Take the case of one of the
biggest issue raised by the opposition leader L.K Advani yesterday. He asked for PM to build a consensus in G-20 summit to end secrecy in banking where by a citizen of one country can not stash money in any foreign bank with tax benefits and evade taxes in his home country. It can't only stop an individual from hoarding of cash but can also stop horse trading, or money laundering in black market. This money laundering in black market is the backbone of terrorism funding all over the world. Forget even that think about the money which might be stashed by the politicians themselves and how many corrupt politicians can we be free of by these just one act.
If the figures stated by L.K. Advani is even half the actual figure then at least lakhs of corrupt nationals will come into light. Consider even if 25% of the amount to be politicians money (which is most predictable) and only an handful of 10% (which is totally contrary) of politicians in all found to be guilty then we can be free of hundreds such corrupt politicians by just one act.
From time immortal each one of us has always wondered when can we get these corrupt politicians out in open and make them pay for there deeds and here is a Prime Ministerial candidate who has support his pledge even if the present government does not take it to logical conclusion, here is a candidate who has already formed a team of people to look into its technicallity and ligalities even before the elections and yet there is no prime time discussion or national news on it. Kudos to generations next political activism that started a pink chaddi campaign against a single incident of violence and had courage to stand against one morale brigade affecting themselves and not having courage to cleanse a whole political class and set precedent for generations to come.
