What is it with us Indians.....In the past few days so many convictions, so many altercations, Riots, rebellions.... apparently it seems to me that India thru the years has become an amalgamation many smaller countries, each with their own agenda's, ideologies, future and present. Probably the worst case of a federal setup.

"100 Out of 543 Lok Sabha MPs have links to crime"

Nearly 33 per cent were found to be involved in heinous crimes. About 12 are charged with murder, 10 with attempted murder and 11 are acknowledged dons. It s true that most cases are old and minor in the perception of the accused. But they no longer take away the odium out of them. The world's largest democracy has nearly one-fifth of its law-makers who, at one time or the other, broke the law which they had sworn to uphold.

I think the state of our state assemblies is also not different.

Riot and rebellion at the drop of a hat. Examples from Mumbai, Nagpur, Malegoan, Mangalore etc

Where are we heading to…? I stay in Bangalore, apparently one of the most prosperous cities in India. Yeah life is different, but the bottom line is almost the same across all places.
As a Democracy are we headed the right direction. It is time to do a retrospection….
