Ek Anna..

Lot of hopes are pinned on the Shri Anna Hazare and his team of civil rights activists, who are ready to give final shot to the menace called corruption. We all are sitting on the arm chair waiting for the action from the camps and willing to see the fight in our life time. His certificate for corruption free state has already created storm and poor fellow has to take back his word and spew venom on the state working in Gujarat. Indeed the situation is not good, but do we need this certification then only we would like to improve. There are lot agencies in this world who would certify our state of administration at all levels. You need to be watching the scene change in Indian politics where these actors change their role on the either side of stage.

We are serious about many things but it takes steam out of idea when it goes for implementation. Every failure in planning or development does not mean we are corrupt, but sheer poor understanding and willingness to undertake the task on hand. We have created series of mission on all subjects under the sun, guided by near fad end of carrer babus and their ex mates. These all policy douldrums have no basis of inhouse research or study, all have their roots on the western or their originated framework. Its pity that Shri Anna and his team has to cajole and understake a task where the existing govt should have understaken, we are moving towards parallel democracy and pseudo governance in running goverments from the court, media and civil right activists.

Yes! this has happened after governments tried to run it on corporate fuel (idea) in streamlining, opening self to outside world only to realise that they have plenty to hide and inexperience in handling corporate governance. Thus the failure in managing tasks on time and promising too much before they can absorb the earlier ideas and policy. The commissions were formed to study and suggest various issues, may be they have carefully studied the system and recommended the action. But in nutshell, the governments fail to acknowledge the report or implement even easy actions proposed. Its now easy for all of us to say bechara Ek Anna...?
