Legislating your responsibilities away...


I really, wish that everyone who has a responsibility or debt could just brush them away like our government. Consider this... We all in a street pick a person and pay that person to take care of festival arrangements and provide food for all etc. That person fritters away the money and come festival time, declares ...

“Sorry, I don't have any money. Nor have I prepared anything. So Each household should prepare 25% food extra and in addition to feeding yourselves, you must contribute that food to me so that I can fulfill my “catering” responsibilities”. On top of this, I also say “Muslim/Christian families don't have to do this, but can come in have a free lunch...”

Does the above look wrong to you ? Well, it should.. Now, consider this our government which collected taxes from all of us and took on the charter of providing quality education to all over a period of time kept on shirking its responsibilities, people made their own arrangements through self-funded means and built quality private schooling establishments. Suddenly, the government and a whole bunch of NGOs woke up and came up with “Right to Education”. I imagined that logically, these morons would compel the government to provide quality education to all and poor on a priority basis at the least !!! Strangely enough they are now forcing the private parties to take on that responsibility, and yes you guessed it exempted the Christians and Muslims from pitching in. I.e. they can benefit from the reservation system, but the convents and madrasas can continue their merry ways, without contributing an iota to this social responsibility. Yet our media hails this as a “landmark judgment”.

Well you can't expect anything from the idiots who go for intellectuals in the Media, but Supreme Court... I hope, that sanity prevails and and the constitution bench puts the responsibility squarely on the Government....

Very disappointed, it is time we scrutinized the process that selects judges to the supreme court as well in depth.....

  1. Not only disappointing. It is disturbing as well. Don't know what is BJP's line.
