Today we all keep playing blame game that there is poverty , corruption etc in india . but have we ever thought that who is responsible for that. The politician will be your answer as usual. But I oppose . no the politician is not the one who is responsible. WE are responsible for this corrupted system of India. How many of you know about the problems of India??
Hardly 40% of population is aware of it..rest 60% busy in doing their household works , going offfice and filling their bank account with money..white or black.. This summer in holidays I went to my village and realised that how backward Indian villages are now also…how are the roads of backward areas. How people live in village . no electricity .. then I started making a list of what I felt are problems of India and thought when I am back will tell all and ask for your views….
POVERTY: India have a third of worlds’s poor. According to a 2005 World Bank survey , 42% of India falls below the international poverty line of $ 1.25 a day. SHOCKED?? But its reality. We see only the brighter side of India. If you are reading this article that means that you are from a place where electricity and internet connection is available easily. But how many of you ever visited a backward area and saw the life there. Hardly 20%. Rest 80% don’t know anything about poor people’s and if they know it means they have just listened ….not saw them.
Poverty is a major reason which is pulling India’s behind…
ILLITERACY: In january 2010 UNESCO said “India still home to largest illiterate population”…the literacy rate of india is 66%..and when the population is not educated and literate how can a country develop?? It will be in developing level only..

CORRUPTION: what is corruption and who is doing this.. here I want to tell a story and you define what is corruption and who is responsible for it??
Once a poor man was going home. But the problem is that he was having Rs 100. And ticket cost was Rs 300. So he can’t buy the ticket and have to travel without ticket. On the way TT asked him and he told his story. In starting TT was very angry and saying that you have to go jail and all. But atlast he took Rs 50 from him and left him..so in this way the man travelled a journey of Rs 300 in Rs 50 and that 50 rupees were in TT’s pocket.
Now my friends tell me who is resposible here for increasing corruption??
TT
The man
Poverty
None of these(specify)
So this is a normal case which we can see anytime in India. And so many little cases making India weak.
POPULATION: As you all know that India is the 2nd most populated country in the world after china. Due to high population poverty arises, unemployment arises, and other problems rises. If there are 100 seats for a post dere are 1000 applicants . only 100 gets job, what about rest 900. All unemployed. Don’t know whether they are going to get job.
The population growing at high rate is also one of major problems to be discussed.
Population leads to unemployment , unemployment leads to poverty , poverty leads to illiteracy , illiteracy leads to corruption.
All are interrelated.
There are other problems also which arise due to illiteracy like castism , superstitions , etc which arises in backward areas and play a important role in stopping the development of India.
In short I would like to add some more problems of India.
Brain drain: India spends money on development of IIT and other government engg colleges, medical colleges etc but after graduation maximum graduates opt for a job in USA and other countries. Whole money getting waste…only 1 profit. We say this doctor is from our country when he discovers any new technology and rest is he is working for development of that country.
Kashmir : every one knows ,It’s a very old problem since independence and after having a look on present conditions we can say it can’t be solved if politicians are like this only.
Finally I would like to end up. At last I will say that we only are responsible for our condition. We singing song india not doing this , policemen , politicians etc are corrupted . I wanna ask you 1 question “who gave the power to politicians ?? who made them a minister of high post??” I think all know the answer is WE. So if we could give them power we can take it from them or make them to do work properly. Every one here saying what can I do alone?? But I would like to say that you are not alone bro. we just need a spark and then see how the fire catches whole country. On one is alone here. Just we need to come further and remove the fear from heart. Believe in god.
Will write more in other post.
Thank you for reading patiently .
Waiting for your reply.
