81 days to go till the Commonwealth Games are opened to the world with India showcasing their infrastructural skills.Apart from the Commonwealth Games there’s nothing to cheer about for the Indian Masses.
Same water logging after rains, same broken roads and broken dividers, beggars swarming the city like plague, trash on city’s streets, same old excuses by the civic bodies for not doing their jobs, playing blame games with each other, same old story with the ministers just wanting to fill their pockets with money and change parties rather than changing face of the nation..same old story.
WHY DO WE CALL OURSELVES ADVANCED IS BEYOND MY IMAGINATION?
Here is a city like Delhi which wants to host a big sporting event, with no means to support it (roads,stadiums,hygienic environment,public toilets,dustbins and most importantly civilized people who love their city) a city where people do not have enough civic amenities like public washrooms and still openly urinate, no dustbins in sight for long distances, so people openly throw garbage on streets which the respective civic bodies do not clean.
Forget Delhi, here is a country like India, where people who get civilian as well as national honors, even if they do not deserve it (Sania Mirza who is ranked no. 132 in the world got her Padma Shri Award in 2006 while a veteran actress and dancer like Helen got it in 2009 and Saina Nehwal who is ranked no.3 in the world has not got it yet despite winning one title after another),while the world was rejoicing the Spain’s World Cup, we were still discussing Telangana and political mind games of the ministers, while the world is preparing itself for global fuel crisis and taking it seriously, we are hiking the rates every week, while people across the world are more vocal about the their problems we are sitting in the comfort of our homes watching Dhoni surpassing Sachin by becoming 200 crore man or drive our cars on the same broken road which was broken 6 months back as well.
We pay the taxes and yet the Diplomatic area of Chanakyapuri or Simon Bolivar Road gets best roadwork done with flowers and around, green grass, cleaner environment while East and West Delhi get a step-motherly treatment.
Speak up people Speak up before these political parties destroy our country like termites,speak up before corruption destroys the dreams of the founding fathers of the nation, raise your voice…its high time.
