The United States and India are considered as the two biggest democracies with different political system. One is presidential democracy and other is parliamentary democracy. However, both are form of representative democracy which asserts that the politicians are the representatives chosen by the people to rule, exploit and dominate them. These politicians enjoy the privileges of unquestionable rulers with utmost power to manipulate and exploit citizens as the citizens are bound by the social contract which they never saw, never signed yet, this confusing social contract asserts that people ‘willingly’ accepted the rule of these politicians and excepted their exploitative dominance over themselves. Mahatma Gandhi explained the farce of representative democracy when he said, “It is a superstition and an ungodly thing to believe that an act of a majority binds a minority.1 ” It certainly is a sham and ugly thing to accept the supremacy of politicians and to consider them as the moral rulers of the country to whom, we citizens must believe and obey. Mahatma Gandhi clearly criticized Indian parliament when he said, “If India copies England, …Read the Rest

Sonia Gandhi Preferred Obamacare Over Cheaper Indian Medical Force

Sonia Gandhi, the head of the political dynasty of Indian National Congress Party is in the United States as she went through an unspecified surgery which was suggested by her doctors.  However, this move by Sonia Gandhi seems to be quite opposite to the general trend of globalization in which India is sharply rising as a medical hub for cheaper and better medical facilities. It is difficult to say why Sonia Gandhi ignored the Indian medical facilities which are being preferred by U.S patients who feel that cheaper Indian medical force is better option. U.S. President Barack Obama was extremely worried about the increasing trend of U.S. patients preferring medical tours to India because they can attain cheaper and proper medical care facilities in India. In the month of April 2011, U.S. President Barack Obama said that Americans don’t need to travel to India to attain ‘cheap healthcare’1 However, most of the Americans disagreed with him. A prominent basketball coach Guy Williams commented, “Obama must be crazy. Healthcare is extremely expensive in the US and so is health insurance, which …Read the Rest

Ever wondered why Indian National Congress Party and its politicians offer dynastic despot power to Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi? Why is it that there is no political leader in Congress who dares to challenge Rahul Gandhi? The answer is quite simple, no politician challenges Rahul Gandhi because he isn’t a politician, he is an autocrat. Indian National Congress finds it favorable to remain under the protection of Nehru-Gandhi family because that is the most secured manner of maintaining power control. Indira Gandhi was the first one to declare that she is the despot when she announced emergency in 1975. It should be noticed that a despot in reality is nothing more than a criminal; however, he enjoys maximum immunity against being caught. A despot never gets caught because he is not only the head of criminals, but also, he is the supposed head of politicians. However, the real power grabbers always remain the politicians. Politicians are the actual group which rules dominates and controls the common men and the criminals. The laws are made, amended, changed or revoked by …Read the Rest

Why Manmohan Singh said no to PM under Lokpal Bill

Corruption

Last month, when Prime Minister Manmohan Singh claimed that he has no objection in accepting the demand of Civil Society to keep the Prime Minister Office within the ambit of proposed Jan Lokpal Bill, Mr. Anna Hajare praised him and said that India is fortunate to get such an honest prime minister. He is the same prime minister who claimed that the honesty of prime minister and wife of Julius Ceaser should remain beyond doubts. However, it is certainly difficult for anyone to believe that Manmohan Singh remain innocent, ignorant and honest while almost every second politician of his central government was committing scam, corruption and crime. This doubt grew dense last week when A. Raja, the prime excused of 2G Spectrum scam claimed that whatever he did was under direct purview of Manmohan Singh and P. Chidambaram, who was then finance minister of India. And now, Manmohan Singh further deepened the mystery by claiming that after studying all aspects of Lokpal Bill and functionality of government, he is against the proposal of keeping prime minister and PMO under the …Read the Rest
