As the son-in-law of this nation's unofficial leader has aptly put it - "Mango People in the Banana Republic", he has officially come out and said what most people would be flogged for saying - India is a Banana Republic!
As the skeletons are tumbling out of the closet and more is officially and publicly being said of the corruption of the leading politicians in this country, you would expect anger and outrage amongst the people. But no, we are Mango people! The voting population of this country has had very short memories and is easily won by fake emotion and drama. All our politicians are very well versed in public display of movie style emotional drama.
The moral fibre of this nation has eroded to an all time low. The voting population does not give a damn about corruption of individual politicians. They suffer daily from the amount of bribes that they have to pay to get any routine work done by the bureaucracy. As long as the politician is able to give some freebies, the voting population will not care about the individual's corruption. After all the voting public is being bribed to vote for who gives the most! The politicians have figured out this winning formula and have been perfecting and improving it. Hence, we see politicians fighting over each other to give the most freebies to the public.
Only when the people of this nation start thinking about their future generations will they outgrow this mentality for short-term gain.
Can anyone encourage their children to vote for corrupt politicians? If you can, you should also tell them that should cheat, rob, steal, kill, loot, plunder, pillage their neighbours and friends. That is exactly what you are doing by voting for and supporting corrupt politicians.
We need to have a change from the existing political parties in both state and the centre.
The Congress party has all but lost it's ability to regain power in Andhra Pradesh. The choice is between Y.S. Jagan and others. We have to choose between evils.
The main reason Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy is fighting for power is to get leverage and blackmail the central government to drop all the cases against him, when he gets enough MP seats in Andhra Pradesh. He may very well succeed!
Think about the future of this state when Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy and his cronies take over the state. Magnify whatever bad has happened during Y.S.R's regime in this state by 10 times and you will get the picture!
In one fell swoop he will decimate this states assets and natural resources!
Let us make this country a true Republic of India and not a Banana Republic.
