is a Latin Phrase traditionally attributed to the Roman poet Juvenal from his Satires (Satire VI, lines 347–8), which is literally translated as "Who will guard the guards themselves?"
Corruption in India is at its highest point (I hope to god) cause i cant bear to see it more. I think this year i have seen highest corruption in India namely CWG(Common Weath Game), 2G spectrum, Adarsh Housing, Vedenta Housing and others that arent important to be on the front page for a week. I wasnt fond of Congress government but now this takes the cake. How much money they are spending in cash for votes beats the hell out of me.
I read in the article and i concur with it whole heartedly that congress government is a family owned business.First Indira Gandhi, then both of her sons now Sonia Gandhi and waiting in the line is her son Rahul Gandhi. In fact the government as usual wouldnt have budged if Anna Hazare wouldnt have gotten this much support from Aam Janta for Lokpal Bill. But i dont have high hopes for it too as the commitee or the people who will look at the reports would be from government. So will they convit their own people? You would be a fool to think Yes and not skeptical or cynical but practial if you are thinking NO. But on the hindsight atleast the water is brewing, its not sitting idle, letting algae spread its tentacles through our system.
Recently i was having a chat with my friend saying nothing useful will happen in our country and if we put effort to get rid of corruption, it would take atleast 2 generations after which we will see the results. Everyday i see newspaper and i read corruption either at small level or at higher levels. I still cant understand how our country is surviving and how Foreign Investors (FII) thing we are hot and are pouring money in our economy.
The movie "Wednesday" was the perfect example saying marta tau aam admi hi hai, whatever happens, the aam janta and common people have to suffer. The politicans after doing all this scandal will still try for re-election or try to come into power because history says that no politican has ever got convicted and i dont see it happening in future either. The rich people having hands in with the politicans will go in hiding and enjoy the wealth they have a-mass.
I love my country but not the people who runs it. Maybe we should also have a revolution like one that is happening in Middle East but still i dont see anything coming out of it because the next government will be same like the previous one. Good people dont survive in politics and you have to elect whats left and who has trampled other people to come to the top. I have to accept this and move on cause we cant do anything else except try to support people like Anna hazare but should not expect much from it.
