We and the Government

Excelsior Rakesh

Two Way Traffic
Col. Parmjit Singh
We the people of Republic of india and the Government (by the people, of the people and for the people) must work in tandem considering the Nation first and foremost. A Nation can’t grow and make smooth unhindered progress, till two way smooth and consistent traffic is ensured. The two entities that is the citizens and the Government have to pull in one direction and heave together, considering nation first always and everytime. As a disciplined citizen don’t question the authority and the Government should’nt think by mere stretch of imagination even that it can play around with the citizens and befool them. It is not like a football match between the two.Both have responsibilities towards each other.They both must work together.
The citizens must know their fundamental consititutional rights as enshrined in the constitution. But at the same time they must be equally aware of their duties too. Should become more responsible citizens. Must behave and become more disciplined. They must follow the rules and regulations as laid down by the Government from time to time. Knowing and talking about only fundamental rights and doing no good for the country is totally unacceptable.
Exercise your right to vote, a fundemental right with caution and be very careful as to whom are you voting for. Your vote is your vote and it is priceless and therefore exercise your voting choice judiciously. Don’t get bought over casting of votes . There are many who accept money to vote in favour of a particular candidate , which is an unethical act by the way.
Never do such things. Because this way we all are electing a government, which probably may not be the right choice , but majority makes the Government and this is the rule. Whosoever (whichever party) enjoys majority will form the Government. One may like it or not. Some voters do accept rations/blankets/ scooters/motor cycles or employment for self or their wards for casting their precious vote in favour of a particular candidate.It is illogical and unethical. Please don’t accept such freebies to cast your precious vote. In fact such candidates who try to lure public with false promises (be aware of the credentials of the candidates beforehand ) , called jumlas in political parlance or whatever other means. Please don’t elect them. They will ruin you and the great indian nation. Exercise judicious choice. that’s it.
Don’t elect illiterate or uneducated candidates. They as our leaders would do no good for the development of their constituencies and will not be able to constructively contribute positively for the development of nation too and fail miserably. You must have noticed at some point of time that some leaders never make a speech and project problems faced by us in the assembly, lok sabha or rajya sabha, by the way, because such elected memebers are not capable as they have purchased the votes to get elected and got elected . And they lack the wherewithal (intelligence) requried to plan, collect facts and figures and prepare their speech and deliver .On the other side also must have seen or heard that some good and worthwhile candidates always consider nation above politics and rightfully fight tooth and nail for the welfare of citizens and consider nation first always. But the incapable and worthless leaders lack required insight and vision. Also note don’t vote for the candidate who has criminal record / background
Don’t vote for a candidate who has more than two children. Don’t vote for a candidate because even when he is your relative or friend or from your community when other good and proficient candidates are available . Please note we are not trying to influence anyone for that matter by the way . A humble request to vote for those leaders who would serve us better and give good goverance. That’s all. Period.Woh hamara apna aadmi hai (he is our own), such an approach will lead us nowhere, subsequently we all will be doomed. Government or sort of mere Government is unacceptable. So take necessary precautions while voting and exercise your choice intelligently.
Let us all stop blame game attitude that is government blaming the citizens and vice-versa, the citizens blaming the Government. Whereas we expect perfect cohesiveness and fine tuning between the two.We citizens want that Government should not play with our sentiments and emotions . We want good governance and nation first attitude of all . Government must devise and revise policies from time to time which benefit the citizens and the nation as a whole .
The citizens must become the role model citizens and the Government role model government and both to work together to make the nation a role model nation.We make a humble request to the government to make stringent rules for punishment of defaulters or history sheeters . Justice delayed is justice denied. Kissa kursi ka culture must be shunned away immediately.
The politicians must rise above politics and their parties and the citizens above their leanings oblique political affiliations so as to make the nation great. The politicians should know for certain that they are public servants, not just for the heck of it and they are equally responsible to the citizens for ensuring correct policies are debated and made for welfare of all.Both the citizens and the government have to heave together, work together to make the nation a role model nation , a model worth emulating.
Hence two way traffic is need of the hour and is equally desired. God bless all.
