Morning of Saturday(18-May-2013), somewhat lazy day for people working in 5-day schedule. I need to take my family(wife and two kids) to my in-laws house (just 20kms away from my residence).My wife and I planned to have pest control of my house, when they are not at home as my son is just 3 months old. After leaving family to in-laws house, I came back to home and called pest control agency and had done pest control around 1.00PM.
Now for 3-4 hours, I cannot enter house because of chemicals used in pest control and need to spend time outside house. I went to Amanora mall thinking its good location to spend 3-4 hours in hot summer days. I checked Inox for current movies, but there was not any good movie, which you can watch alone. Then I thought of purchasing good book from “Crossword” and read book in Mall common space itself. I asked for books” “Walking with lions” by K Natwarsing and “More salt than pepper” by Karan Thapar. But to my luck, neither of these titles were available. So I was just checking available options and could locate a good book: “anna, 13 days that awakened India” by Ashutosh. I quickly read introduction of the book by Yogenda Yadav and found worth to read it. Now I need not to think about any other entertainment.
While going though book, I feel it is really suffocating in Indian democracy, where powerful people can do anything and nothing can be done against them. After series of scams 2G, CWG, Coalgate; government was in denial mode to take any actions against wrongdoing and to prevent wrongdoing in future. It is not only party in power, but their alliance partner, oppositions supported not to have any real concrete actions.
I supported “Lokpal Movement” because it was not against any party, but it was against system; which has high immunity to corruption and wrongdoings. There are many more junks, spams, Trojans in current system. In book “What young India wants” by Chetan Bhgat he correctly pointed out that system is unhealthy and just “Crocin” will not be helpful, it require strong antibiotic dose to recover from illness. I fully agree to reboot the system completely.
It was 5.30PM and I was still reading book. I thought of returning to home (Intensity of chemicals used in pest control must have come down by that time). When I opened doors and windows for fresh air, thought of starting blog comes along with fresh air. It clicked easily and start blog Rebooting India- http://rebootingindia.blogspot.in
Once I entered in house, I saw many died insects and suddenly I thought can we have similar pest control in country to finish corrupt insects and parasites. My heart says “Yes We can!” If every good individual think for change, we can change complete system. In Obama’s word “Change-That we can believe in.”

Beginning step of change could be small. Just register your name in voter list. Vote to right candidate without failure. Your attempts may fail, but do not fail to make any attempt. If you come across any difficulty in registering/transferring name in voter list, write your difficulty in comments. We will have resolution in forum. We can and we will change the system

ReplyDeleteIts easy to clean the pest at home as its small and doesn't resist more. But in our country the bigger pest need big people movement to clean.
ReplyDeleteThe system is so stable and systematic that need to be shaken from root , we have seen one demo during Anna movement.
Hi Rahul,
DeleteThanks for comments. Change is possible. I read in one of the book, change should happen to many people at same time for greater effect. Example given in book was very interesting. When number of people creating rush, while entering in to train and if only one person tries to follow discipline to make queue, change does not really have desirable effect. But if change happen to many people at same time, it will have significant effect. But how change can happened to many people at same time? Awareness and great leadership can make it happen. Awareness is in our hand. Let's wait for great leadership, time will have answer for this.
Nice one..!
ReplyDeleteAwaiting more articles on politics..
Hi Deepak,
DeleteBlog will have many more articles on social-political issues. It will be more on issue based and solution based approaches rather than favoring or criticizing any specific person/party.
