There was a heated discussion among us friends on which form of government was better-democratic or communist.Though it died out in an hour ,owing to other discussions like movie and politics, i wondered if my arguments that india is best with democracy was right seeing the Libran commision report.It's so disgusting that we live amongst such religious fanatics.
There were several issues raised during that discussion and i'll try to explain things in my view
- One party is good for the nation
Let me tell u people,that would be good for Chinese but we can never adopt to such stupidity.Even in the midst of a multiparty system we see monarchy prevailing amongst pary leadership and i often wonder how could are these supposedly altruistic politicians buy lamborgs and porschs when they are 'ezhai pangalan'?
My answer is even if one party is in power, all thieves would rob together together in a single party rather than in opposite camps.The feuds would be more coz,Indians are a mixed race with many religions,cultures and traditions.so a one party system would produce lead to more confusion and power hungryclans vying for the time to dig graves for each other.
- Strict rules or severe punishments
It does seem so convincing that,China's growth has been largely due to the discipline it induces amongst its citizens and workers.But on the contrary,how can u take pride in being acommunist when u dont even care abiut the lives of workers(e.g.in mines-chinese have the worst mining safety methods),which principle of Marx due to hold high making lockouts illegal and protests unlawful?In India one can atleast speak this comparison would this ever be possible in china?Never.Our's is a nations where governments had been trashed by people for hurting religious sentiments.We could never live to the Chinese philosophy of State first policy.justice should be quick but never in haste --china has the worst human rights record,many awarded capital punishment had been proved innocent.For a nation strongly bonded to family,u cant apply machavallian rules as in china as in sports(a olympic medallist wasnt informed of her mothers death during preparation)is this the cost on which our development should be built ?
I often hear people saying,India isnt being aggressive as China in promotin industries.Well china promotes Industry without worrying about the consequences-Chinese cities are the worst air polluted cities.
We are no good than them,if we couldnt keep our Holy Ganga pure-we wouldnt keep anythn clean.But we are not like China -sacrificing evrything for sake of development.Chinese may be the largest economy in Asia but,they too had they hit in recession while our markets were relatively stable.Chinese economy is largely based on exports and so it can never be termed as good.We wonder at their magnificient Three Gorges project forgetting the millions vacated without a penny of compensation.Even India does that,but atleast here we have a chance to agitate for the compensation-Would Medhapatkar been alive ha she been in China?
Yeah!China is relatively peaceful baring Xinjiang.but we should'nt forget the golden words of Rousseau"I may never agree with your views,but i would give up my life in your right to express them"without right to expression there would be no growth,no air to breathe-no introspection,as a result mankind stagnates.with iron handedness you can qquell break a movement but never its soul for it's in minds than in corpses.If one is confident that their government is good they would never censure internet and blogs.Oppression only breeds mindless slaves and nothing more
so,I still stand and would stand on the view that,we have a unique way of dealing things.It may be flawed because men who frame them are flawed.Inspite of it if we could reach this heights ,its astounding...Proud to ba an Indian..
