Biggest problem in India - CORRUPTION

Most of the World thinks that the Population is the biggest problem in India but I tend to differ on it. In my mind the biggest problem that Indian needs to deal with is 'the corruption'. This has to start from Bottom to Top and Top to Bottom, simply means at all levels.

Corruption has crossed its all levels and we are considered among the most corrupt nation in the World. Lets starts from the top, the Politicians who are the leaders of this Country seems to be corrupted and once the politicians are looking for their own benefit who will look after the people.
So first ones who should be blamed for this problem is our leaders. Leaders are suppose to lead us out of the mess of corruption but here they are, the ones who are leading the ways into a mess and people are following them...The corruption is dragging us down, my dad says that India is a country is relying on only 10% of government officials who are really working their day to day job, rest of the 90% are enjoying their monthly checks and bribe money to spend their vacation days in office.Using their position/power to receive bribes and sell the power to whom those have money to buy. The lowest level I've seen the corruption is that peon of the office will ask money just to let you know or to meet the officer, an electrician will come to you asking to alter your electricity meter so that you can enjoy free electricity for few rupees as one time charge, you can get a motor vehicle license without even going to a Motor Vehicle dept(RTO). No need for the road test, you don't even have to show your face, and here is our government handing over the license to kill.

What is more shameful is that above things that I just mentioned is a widely known fact and most of us have seen or gone through it in a day to day life in India...

So considering these things I do not think we are going to led by our politician to get out of this mess. Everyone of us have to contribute their fair share, only thing that you have to say is that "No! to bribes". If this trend is continued this will make a world of a difference because we have Biggest power that is 'Population'. We can make a BIGGEST VOICE on this face of earth. Hence I usually differ that Population is a big problem of India right now because if I look at the other side of coin (wrt to Population) I see a lot of benefits but it does not mean that I do not want us to control the population, we have to look at those things as well but in terms of priorities and the impact that we can generate - Lets focus and FIGHT CORRUPTION. This will give us immediate results. Say "No!!! to Bribes"

Advantages of fighting corruption is more than I can even jott it down but some of them are
  • Improved Indian Economy at all levels
  • Faster Work progress
  • Less stress to everyone - happy community
  • Improved infrastructure
  • Safer community
  • Healthy community
I think government can start corruption crack down office as business and will reach break even point in couple of days if they do not get corrupted themselves. :)

Indian Media - your thoughts?

I do not live physically in India for past few years but whenever I watch the live TV and the media covering the issues in India, I strongly feel that Indian Media adds a lot of spice to the basic news /facts and make a every attempt to believe the perception they put over the facts. Media should be FAIR but if you put money to any transactions, there comes a Fiduciary duties that one has complete and follow what clients are asking them to do, clients such as the Polictians, businesses that advertise on such media channels.

Our media should be inspiring and providing the facts to us and let us make the decision of what is right /wrong/correct rather than telling us what is right/wrong. Most of the illiterate people in India do believe that whatever is on the TV must be true and their truth is most of the time media's perception that was may be bought by few individuals. I see that very clearly in American Media, fortunately here there are only 2 political parties but in India there are more than 1700 nationally recognized political parties - now what happens where who knows? and in India who's got the time to dig into it? So whatever is seen on the TV is the truth.

I watch Hindi news channels and the guys there shout on top of their voice, for a statement that can be completed in 15-30 seconds, they take about 15 minutes to provide the information and keep repeating the same information without even using different words at times. That is so poor way to communicate and I can see that they are just filling up time on that show because they do not have anything else to show. Apparently it turns me off and I do have move to another channel and to my surprise I do see same thing is being repeated on the other channels too...What can we do to make them realize that we want to know the facts in clean and concise fashion? I believe creating forums in the new age of Internet will certainly help all of us here..So what are we waiting on - Lets start a journey of free and FAIR media that makes everyone of us powerful enough to reach to millions and express our opinions.

My vision is to see India the most powerful nation by converting the biggest weakness into a biggest strength - which is population :)

Express your Top 5 thoughts that people of India must to do to be a secure and peace loving nation?

  1. Raise awareness about the security, population, Literate people, advise and keep reminding them on regular basis... Advertise, market it.
  2. Government should provide better equipment to Indian security officials and provide training; and raise their salaries for every government officials so that they don't have to take bribes to lead a comfortable life.
  3. Law and order, Enforce Law. India does have the most number of laws in the world but there is hardly any enforcement. It takes generations once the case goes into a court.
  4. Respect every individual and be courteous. Courtesy is contagious.
  5. Be Happy!!!

Indian Politics - Mumbai Terror Attacks

So where does the Indian Politics stand after the shear failure of the Politics and Security Offices and their officers that Indian taxpayers pay them to protect the country. Is resignation from few politicians those anyways were about to be removed from the office in next election going to suffice this and people will move on their day to day life? This is been happening for last 15 years and is this going to continue?

I do not entirely blame politicians on this but we as a citizen of India are also partly responsible as we are the ones who elected such leaders who spends all the taxpayers money on their own security where Country is absolutely unprotected.

These few individuals are playing with common peoples money, emotions and media is exploiting it since they have higher number of advertisement running as people are almost glued to the TVs to get more news around. I think we need at least one channel in India which looks after the interest of public. But I believe Internet is a Great tool of 21st Century where we can create a VOICE that can be heard across the globe.

No matter where you live but if you want to do something for India please join me creating this VOICE that will shake India as a country. No donations are required, absolutely no money involved but just your thoughts and ideas on the issues that are impacting human lives. I believe that once we start discussing we shall reap the results in the near future. Change may take time but WILL COME. India will see the change from the OLD CORRUPT POLITICS. Bribery will end in India. India will be the country that will spread the peace all over the world.

NO WAR IS WON BY ANYONE. Leaders are suppose to qualified to tackle such issues via diplomacy and I expect that we should be able to make progress even with Pakistan. Its just set of few extremist that are creating a havoc all over the world and some countries have started the 'WAR ON TERROR' - This enemy does not have any boundary its very sad that we have to see such day as a HUMAN where such incidents happen.

My heart goes put to the people and their families who lost life in such terror attacks.

Globezen's Voice

Globezen = An individual who lives in Mother Earth - our planet

So I see every individual living here is a globezen.

Lets generate a VOICE of people by the people and for the people for our planet, earth. This VOICE can not be heard until we all unite and have the same theme so my focus is in the areas of interest that impacts our Mother The Earth. This VOICE will go beyond limits of countries and will help regional areas to bring all us one platform.

There are numerous countries on this Planet Earth they have their owns ways of living day to day life but if you see a BIG picture, Human are same. They have exactly same emotions,problems,feelings,reactions so I find we are eternally bonded as ONE but live in different locations, environment. This VOICE will bring us together beyond physical boundaries that we all have created and unite us to address these global issues by the people. You don't need a leader to have your voice heard but in this global economy you are the VOICE.

Democracy is very simlar but this VOICE is heard only once in 4 or 5 years and it is confined to
a country that has constitutionalizes the democracy but

UN = Congregation of leaders of conuntries but no fruitful effects are seens in the past


We shall concentrate on the a few issues (Top 5) that are Global in nature such
  1. War on Terror
  2. Global Warming
  3. Global Economy
  4. Poverty
  5. Health

I understand that everyone's got a problem and they deal with it on a daily basis
and win over them but there are new problems arise with new dawn of the day and the cycle continues and this
is life that has happiness and momemts of sadness. My formula of successful life is very simple
Moments of happiness > Moments of sadness = SUCCESSFUL life.

Human is to err. So don't expect we to keep doing the rights things all the time but some times the right thing
that we make a choice being living that moment, the future may chose it to be the wrong thing to do and we
shall face the consequences of the decision made by us. As decisions are for the moments but who makes the decision
lives it for every moment of it for rest of the time in present and future.

I want to respect every individual and this is not an idea to change anyone's belief but to make
stronger and heard. I have learned that UNITY is one thing that will overcome any problems that faces us hence the religions were made for the very purpose. Human is a Social in nature and will remain such for the coming future.
