India = Chaos. Why?

In my first job, I learnt a Acronym called RCCA - Root Cause & Corrective Action. Have we ever applied the same thing to the situations in India? I dont think so.

When I think why my country is in chaos, I get only one answer - Population. Our ancestors behaved only like pigs, rather than humans with brains. They had families in the multiples of tens. They have never foreseen what is going to happen to our country because of thier stupid way.

Today if you see the money is unevenly spread across the people. Few people are living in an unimaginably worse circumstances. For ex, if you goto Nagapattinam the place where Tsunami struck sometime before ...

The people living there are wondering why they survived the Tsunami
Snakes come into their houses every night
Children are sleeping in such circumstances.
Ground water is mixed with chemicals and drainage.

However Mr.Karunanidhi is having fun in his Airconditioned Bungalows.

If you take a sample example. Lets place two kids together. Offer an Icecream to one. The other Child will also get tempted to have one. However he cannot. After a while his urge to eat an ice cream gets intensified and then he may take extreme steps to get an ice cream.

Similar is the world, when you find a few enjoying life like anything and the others starving, the starving would obviously rebuke and start becoming extremists causing violence.

Who is doing all this? - I expect the reader to answer this question

If we observe the amount of people that pay tax in India is 3% (published by Times of India). That only means that the country is banking on its development with only this meagre amount.

Why is government not collecting tax from the remaining? Why are many general stores not giving receipts? Where is the VAT wrt them? Where is the sales tax?

Not to mention most of this tax comes from fools, i.e. the innocent, gullible software engineers who don't have a way other than paying the tax, yet the remaining population which is corrupt makes slanderous remarks about us and our industry. The buggers who squeeze a lot of rental amounts from us do not pay any tax. Poor fellows these IT engineers don't have time to stand in a line to complain. However they can file their compliants online which is not available and we know how efficient these depts are.

Out of all this nonsense and darkness I can see some light. I think future of this country is still left in the hands of this 3% innocents. The only way we can air our loud voices is first we should be clean not allowing anyone to practice illegal practices. Then we should educate atleast ten others around our community to be good and practice justice. This becomes 30% very soon and then turns to be 100% in a second stage. Folks lets try.

I know we are donating a lot in form of tax, however still lets categorize some money and time for the needy. Lets donate this money into the right hands. Invest some time to educate the masses to shape this country into a good one.

First thing is stop bribing. I know its tough, however this is the only way.

Lets see a wonderful India.

Jai Hind.

Indian's Cheat --- said by a foreigner

Two years back one of my friend came to Hyderabad, India. His experiences went like this.

1. Our Assistant Manager - training, who claims to be the best hospitable person, offered them Chicken Biriyani and left. The poor chap could hardly have a spoon of it.

2. Their stay was never taken care of.

3. They went outside, to shop for their people to Hyderabad central in a Auto-Rickshaw. The driver took them for a ride. He drove them all over the city and made a big bill. However when they finally got down at Central he started demanding more money, and infact asked them to pay in Dollars.

4. After the entire tiff with the auto driver all they found out was that Central was closed and opens only at 10.00 in the morning. Alas, they returned back.

So finally after two years now I went to USA and met this guy. Infront of my co-Indians and others he explianed the situation and scorned at India saying Indians take leverage of foreigners and misbehave. Myself and my Indian fraternity didn't have a word to support India as because we ourselves have got cheated by people in India.

Do you think we deserve this kind of humiliation when we are abroad? I think YES, as long as our people are reluctant to change and our politicians are busy making money rather than working for the country.

Indian Railways --- Welcome to Hell

Due to fiscal situations, I had to take a train this time to my hometown, Visakhapatnam. First welcome into the compartment,AC 2 Tier, is the Air Condition is not working. Second there is no water in the restrooms. I paid good amount to travel in this train, however the MIB aliens, cockroaches, were freely moving in the compartment. This is what happens when you get into the most prestigious Indian Railways trains.

Additional to this you will find people who bark over their phones as long as the signal persists, even without thinking about others. Few show off their gadgets by playing music in louder volumes. Can we ever expect all these things to change?

Money to file an FIR?

Recently when I was in USA, one of my friend was using my car. One night when he parked my car infront of his house, some miscreants scratched it completely on the bonnet. When he went to the police station to file a compliant the Sub Inspector (SI) asked him money, in other words BRIBE, to file one and give a receipt.

After I came back, to claim the insurance, my insurance guy asked for a police compliant and when I tried for it the SI asked me for Rs.3000/-

Guys this is India, I don't know to whom should I complain about this. The police inspector who is supposed to do justice to me is asking money to even take a complaint.

The newspapers are busy to publish about Bhutto's assasination and Karnataka Govt's crisis. They don't have an ear for people like me. God help us.
