We all get an impression that before 1947 almost all of Indian citizens were fighting against britishers. This is not true. Only some patriotic Indian freedom fighters had sacrificed everything for the country's freedom. And few more were indirectly contributing to it by donating money and/or by providing financial, logistical and moral support to these great souls.
Now we stand at the cross roads again. Faces changed but the system remained same. The system which britishers had designed to loot and exploit India is adopted as it is by their Indian followers. So the people still face similar issues. And this explains the arrogant, incompetent attitude of bureaucrats and politicians. They are our servants and are appointed to serve us and not to exploit us. They think corruption is their birth right.
So, there is a dire need to change the current system. It asks for second freedom movement. A set of patriotic people have come together and are creating awareness amongst people for the same. This groups includes dedicated and accomplished leaders like Baba Ramdev, Sri Sri Ravishankar,Kiran Bedi, Mahamood Madani
, Anna Hazare, Archbishop Vincent M Concessao, Swami Agnivesh and many more. The complete list of these freedom fighters is at

Who are opposing these people ? Obviously the followers and slaves of britishers. And some examples of these people are Congress MP from Arunachal Pradesh (who called Baba Ramdev 'bloody Indian'), senior congress leader like Digvijay Singh and couple of more congress leaders. I am not going to one sidedness news of english media like CNN-IBN, NDTV and times now.Our media houses are shallow and do reporting without any research.
Now is the time for citizens of India to decide, if
- we want to be counted amongst developed, progressive, powerful countries in the world..where citizens are respected and cared for
- we want talent and intellect to be respected and rewarded in India
- we want to change the current exploitative political and bureaucratic system
- we want proper roads, proper electricity, proper education and good job opportunities for every countrymen
- we want to be counted as a nation where even the poorest has access to justice, food, shelter and a decent way of life and no one ever dare take these away from him
And if we want these then we have to stand and throw the current political party in power away. We have to also understand that a hugely diversified billion plus populated country can not be made the property of one ruling family. We deserve much better and we must and we will get it. There is no concept of 'prince' like rahul gandhi in our democracy. They can have our respect but not the power to rule us just because they belong to one family.
Also, we have to change ourselves. We have to learn to believe in ourselves. We have brain, knowledge and thousands and thousands of years old civilization behind us which has given the mankind many good things like yoga, ayurveda, maths and so on. Lets not feel let down by people pointing at us about the cast system, dowry and many social evils. Societies make mistakes, US had slavery and still has discrimination against colored people...germany had hitler...etc ..we all learn and move on. So will India.
We have to believe that We as a nation called India can be leader and not followers World will learn our language and we will provide the direction to nations. English can be used in India but Indian languages are the ones which will get respect and encouragement. We will do whatever it takes to change the system. We will be fearless and take our risks.
I am determined to vote this time to have my say. And I have decided that people who are responsible to current plight of India , who have ruled India for 50 plus years, who have no vision of a great Indian nation and consider it their birth right to be 'king' , 'queen' or 'prince' of my country because they think that they are born in a dynasty, can not be allowed to rule us any longer. I will be a traitor if i will ever vote for them and so will be any person.
