OPINION:
"I myself have little hope
for change, but I'm happy to see that the younger
generation consults its hopes and not its fears"
Dear Readers:
It is not surprise me that when I read the above
article written by Mr. MOIZ MANNAN, in the leading
Newspaper in Qatar, the following request was took
from my article which was written under "INDIA
SHINNING -IS THIS REALITY OR MYTH ?"
"We, NRIs are very honest,
hard worker, sincere from inside to help our brothers
and sisters in India and to make 'India Shinning',"
says one NRI activist. "In return, if NRIs are
being cheated, tortured or kidnapped and specially
no help from police in this kind of situations- there
will be a great loss for future investment in India
by NRIs and foreign companies. Only one case of kidnapping…
makes a difference."
Gary Singh, another NRI activist, sounds really concerned
when he says: "We humbly request to all IPS,
IAS (officials), and judges of India, to please take
immediate steps for the safety of all NRIs. God has
given you a great power for the welfare of more than
a billion people."
---------------------------------------------
Now you can see that the how Internet is helping NRIs
from North American to Guelph to Australia, and how
do they share their opinions and like to help India.
Most of the NRIs have the same feelings as Mr. MOIZ
MANNAN described in his article. We, NRIs are trying
to get a benefit of the Internet revolution and this
is a great benefit to Indian entrepreneurs to attract
NRI business men. Now Indian entrepreneurs and NRIs
like to do big projects in India but bureaucrats must
become very sincere to handle this great opportunity.
If they can't handle the Growing
number of abductions in India, believe us, NRIs second
generation will stop their parents to invest in India.
LOOK
THE EXAMPLE OF UK-based businessman Protul Deb.
His daughter Shipra arrived in India last month for
the third time to appeal for help in tracing Protul
who was abducted in Assam a year ago. Shipra's father,
67-year-old Protul Deb, left the UK to come back to
India in 2000 and set up a bamboo business in Assam....
Two weeks back, our reporter
contacted her for the progress of her trip to India.
Her answer was, "She tried to meet all kind of
authorities in New Delhi but there is no sincere progress
and positive answer or hope she got. Some honest people
suggest her that don't waste her time because she
is NRI has no value.........."
I believe that there are some honest people in India
that pity on NRIs during these kinds of situations.
They understand that who will listen her if kidnappers
have great force behind them to cover up.
We always bet and proud that India is No.1 democratic
country in the world but why it had a failure to implement
a democratic constitution. Our Indian politician's
common error in political dialogue today is the interchangeable
use of the words "democracy" and "Freedom,"
as though they mean the same thing. They definitely
do not; in fact, democracy can be a severe threat
to freedom and individualism. Democracy has enormous
benefits but also democracy has the most dangers.
We had better prepare for it so we take advantage
of the benefits and avoid the dangers. Democracy is
potentially the best of all forms of society and government;
it is also one of the most dangerous forms of all
society and government. Aristocracy, monarchy, and
such forms were quickly dying out in the West and
that democracy was the wave of the future. I myself
have little hope for change, but I'm happy to see
that the younger generation consults its hopes and
not its fears
Now, India's responsible bureaucrats must understand
that they must have to use their power to implement
effectively. We don't blame politicians because:
- They are selected by uneducated people of villages
and the on the bases of religious tricks
- Most of the leaders are not very educated
- For the past 30 year, we have evaluated them when
they came here to meet us and NRIs had a bad experience
with Govt. projects
But some politician are very honest (example of Manmohan
Singh and Sonia Gandhi), they like to see India shinning.
Leaders come and go but bureaucrats have a permanent
position. If bureaucrats become very strict, thing
will move very fast. The bad thing is that bureaucrats
are also stamped by parties and they should do what
is good for the country. They were selected by their
qualification to serve the country not to follow politicians
who are playing the life of the one billion people.
Thanks for you time to read this article. God bless
NRIs who always have in side feelings to do some thing
there.

Good wisher for India shinning
