The world invented drone. New technologies are changing the way of life. After successful experience of iPhone and Tab, the world is busy in making them more High-Tech and useful for new generation. When most countries of the world are pursuing to get Drone Technology and when the world is planning the use of Drone for delivery of materials and goods, India and its politics have been busy in religious and colour based policies.
How is it possible that people of a particular community hounded, murdered and forced to leave their homes, villages while local and central administration was unable to take on rioters with iron hand?
People are forced to live in camps, children are dying there due to cold and lack of basic needs, on the other side, parties and their leaders have been playing politics. Some see them as supporters of other parties, some see them as sympathizers of anti-national elements, but nobody is ready to give the answer how they became victims overnight? How 50,000 people became homeless overnight despite an elected and powerful government in the State?
Instead of working to rehabilitate the victims and homeless people, politics are being played and the efforts are being made to snatch their basic rights, ancestral homes and villages where they grew up.
How long will Indian society remain in the grip of this kind of politics that is existed since decades? India became a nuclear country, it organized various international events on its soil in past, it is seen as an example in democracy, however, the condition of people of each community on the ground is before us. People cannot help each other because of skin and religion. Media cannot discuss the issue in their platforms because it is against the willingness of the elements whose political and religious interests will be affected.
India is not a weak nation. It is a nuclear country, its military power is very strong in the region. Its democratic value is an example for Muslim and non-Muslim world, its people irrespective of religion, colour and skin have been building countries and making them a developed economic power. The voice of India is being heard and respected around the globe. It is a destination of thousands of people of various countries who visit it for education, medical treatment and business. So, now, what is stopping it to end this kind of biased politics?
When new generation of each community is pursuing to make its future better, such kind of politics and skin based behaviour of administration not only shatters their dream, make them crazy and instil in them hatred and anger, but also shatters the dream of hundreds and thousands of Indians, who live abroad to help their families in India, want to see India like gulf nations in peace, economic development and the facilities are available there for everyone irrespective of skin and religion.
Isn't a matter of shame, Indians live in peaceful society and enjoy better life in foreign countries but they face difficult time in their home country?
India must awake to abandon such exercises. It must act on the ground. How will India be a superpower country while its own people are divided in various sects and lines? India is known with its people irrespective of colour and religion. Biased politics and communal behaviour are big obstacles in the way of development of India. Being a nuclear country, we cannot emerge as a superpower unless divisions and hatred remain in minds.
Each section of society is the strength of this great country, it is upon India to select which way is better, a weak nation or a strongest nation with its powerful people irrespective of colour, religion and class.
