The Indian Socialism


It will be difficult for any one to implement two different ideas at the same time. After 1991,India has been facing the difficulty.We can't give away the Socialism for different reasons nor we can completely stick to capitalism.

The exemptions offered to profit-making corporates indicate our capitalism and the freebies given to normal public indicate our socialism .Does this sort of capitalism and socialism is delivering results? The magnitude of freebies is rampantly geeting increased and same the case with the revenue foregone.

The socialism, we adopted  may be the reason behind the increment of inflation rate.The socialism we adopted is unable to increase the standard of living.Any support should not stay for too long.The support should be provided to the people to let them make their own course of living.The socialism should also help to increase the skill of people involved.

Are we able to achieve the desired results through our socialism?

The caste


The unique system in India which evolved politically is caste system.The heated arguments about elimination of caste is on the board every now and then. The main argument behind denying caste is in support of equality among citizens.

The caste in many parts of rural India is an identity. A few cooperative societies in rural India turns into caste-defined elections and the particular caste participates in elections to elect the president for their caste proudly.

The caste is in flesh and blood of many people in rural India.The segregation of villages into colonies based on caste  is quite evident. Its an identity. The eating habits of a few sects of people may differ from other villagers but they living in their own colony and eating their desired food doesn't affect others and its a win-win situations for every one. It can be compared in other issues too.

Certain  bureaucrats has always tried to go to the depressed classes first like the first bore well in the village to be in the depressed classes colony or over head water tank near to the depressed classes etc.,Other caste might have denied to go to that place but they tried.

Always caste played an important role in implementation of government schemes and poverty studies can be amalgmated with caste studies. Does the argument to eliminate caste fit in ? or a deep study on the trends of poverty and other parameters along with caste will fit in?

The crisis


A little problem between two villagers becomes problem of two political parties in no time. This is common observation for any person who lives near to Indian villages for at least 6 months. Sometimes, the political party leaders standing behind persons do good as our beauracratic system needs stimulation every now and then.

Politicians always play a great role in attracting attention and their main agenda is to mobilize people, attract more people .For this, they have to take a stand in every conflict. Whenever a political party tried to take a mid-way on any issue, people rejected them. Whatever the issue it is, our main stream political parties has put an outstanding efforts to reap benefits out of it and it’s an amazing job altogether.

 Majority of the people in the villages are affiliated to one or other political party? This point can't be ignored when we speak about change in this nation. So, if we establish a new political party, full of ethics and people empowerment as agenda, we are going to bring the right change in the nation. Will it happen that way?

First thing, any new political party coming into the zone has to bank on voters in the village to win and 90% vote bank is already affiliated to already existing political party. So getting them to the new path is very difficult because many of our village voters are loyal to the leaders. No one is going to believe a new party because every party at the time of emergence speaks of values and they will tend to corrupt day by day.

So a new political party bringing the CHANGE is a myth. What can be the solution for our value- crisis in the political system?
