blockade for progress

In our country India Software came up to a large extent because the Politicians who run the Government did not interfere in its working, perhaps it is a little difficult for them to understand.

But why are we lacking in Infrastructure and basic things like Health care, Nutrition, Roads, schools and many other things. Even the lack of Police personnel is alarming.
As, I have mentioned in my last blog about the basic things the Government to do is to provide Law and Order, Health, Security and Infrastructure. If a road is being built, it is of a very poor quality which will be with pits after some rains and heavy traffic. Classic example is the Shiradi Ghat road which leads to Mangalore. Even the Golden quadrilateral is not complete because there was a change of Government.

Politicians interfere in these works and I suspect (An assumption.) that they in understanding with the contractor use sub standard material and pocket the difference among themselves by showing a different bill. I again presume that most of the times they are the contractors themselves being run by their own men. So the sufferer is the common man. Even Medical equipment and medicines are not provided to the Primary Health Centres because even there they put their hands and make money from free medicines. The police personnel do not take complaints against influential people because they are on the pay rolls of Politicians. Sad in a Democracy that the elected representatives who is one among us is taking us for a ride . People should loose fear and stand up against them and demand what is due to them,till that time we are bound to suffer.
