62 yr old Independent India Progress


Its been 62 years we have got our Independence ,so lets review the developments happened and what’s needs to be done . I am not going to write here about our countries diversity , multi cultural multi languages , about tolerance , i will only write about the developments happend , happening and should happen......

Things improved in India
1. People or Population - have become human capital from burden .
2. India has Demographic Dividend ( The demographic dividend is a rise in the rate of economic growth due to a rising share of working age people in a population ) .
3. Entrepreneurship - Entrepreneurs seen as role models unlike villains after post independence , as these people contribution is huge for Nation.
4. English language -- identified as language aspiration .
5. Technology is seen as job creator unlike reduce jobs .
6. Globalization - participation is high , we are getting benefited out of it.
7. And our Democracy - people participation is high .

In progress
1. Primary education : We've Identified the Importance of Primary education and policies are made to improve it .
2. Infrastructure - connecting nation , we are seeing lot of fly-over’s , nation high ways all over the country .
3. cities - seen as engines of growth , so many new cities are coming up.
4. Single market - smooth seamless flow of goods across states .
5. e-governance – For such a big democratic country we need technology help in running the system , which provides efficiency and transparency… however this needs to be speedup .

Ideas in conflict
1. Conflicting political ideologies : policy making gridlock ( Ruling party Propose and opposition opposes ) .
2. Labor reforms - job protection is hampering job creation ( Strikes ) . 93% of employees of India in un organized sector .
3. Higher Education - state funding or private funding , even the quality of this needs to be improved, we are still following British age edu system.
4. Health : Still its not available to the poor ….
5.Environment – As we grow ( more income ) , more vehicles are coming on roads and more pollution , we need to balance it.

Sorry Bapu




Every time i watch movies on Freedom fighters or i read about them.....deep in my heart i feel sad... Bapu you and many freedom fighters sacrificed life’s for our country , dreamed Independent republic nation , with equality and thought that future generation will take India forward . But sorry bapu we've become selfish and greedy, forget about nation we don’t even care for our neighbors....Now we have so many leaders ..leader to each community, each religion, each language, each state, each political party but we don’t have leaders to represent whole country or the better way of saying is we don’t have a leader accepted by whole Nation ...India..... Bapu i keep thinking what i can do to realize your dreams ...should i join politics and work towards make it pure...should i become an entrepreneur to create jobs to our people...or should i become a writer to write give clarity and to guide our nation............do i have the capability...i don’t know..but this desire to help or change my nation is becoming strong day by day .......
