Democracy is a collective will...

In a democracy collective consciousness prevail. But, in our country what we see is not a democracy but a mobocracy, where, if you have money or muscle power, then you can rule the roost.

The reactions by society, the recent mob furies that's happening is just because their beloved democracy is in shambles now and the criminal or civil justice system is in shatters in our country.

Look at the way, Sanjay Dutt and Salman Khan are roaming around even after sentenced to rigourous imprisonment. People are fed up with this kind of things and and i am not sure, whether these furies are collective will of the people as democracy is.
It gives me a feeling that if i get more money or more power, i can do whatever i want and roam around freely.

Common man is bored and dejected about this lawlessness in our society and that is the reason why people take law in their own hands. I am not defending the mob fury, which should not happen, but it is a reaction of the continuous failure of our criminal and civil justice system.

Justice Delayed is Justice Denied...Can someone tell me one good reason, why home ministry is still sitting on afzal guru's mercy plea...An attack on parliament is lesser compared to afzal's life. As an ordinary citizen, i want afzal to be hanged or stoned to death, because he attacked my very own belief in democracy.

When we will learn...?

We require a blast to find out that there is a security lapse... We require a person to die in a manhole, for corporation to understand that all manholes should be closed... We require some school children to die in a fire accident, to understand that schools should have fire protection systems... We require somebody to die in a hospital to understand that all hospitals should be properly equipped with doctors and medicines... We require our ex.PM to die in a bomb blast to find out that our intelligence network is bad... We require a Tsunami to claim 20000 lives to install a Tsunami warning system... This list is endless...When are we going to act proactively to save normal citizens of our country...
