An India that I dream of


If I were a member of the RSS my dream for India would have been Ram Rajya. As a CEO of any multinational my dream for the country would have been 10 % economic growth. As an environmentalist I would have single mindedly campaigned for sustainable development.

However as a run of the mill yet wanting to climb every hill dreamy 20 something citizen of this country, who is just about to feel the world around I aspire for a 100 % literate India by the next half a century.

An erudite society would mean –

- Criminals going to jail and not government offices.
- Baby girls being welcomed with pleasure and not disappointment.
- Family planning being the need of the hour.
- No starving children.
- =-Quality movies and TV serials apart from adultery themes.
- More Nobel laureates and award-winning authors.
- Pumping oxygen to the cities through greener patches.
- Public using public transport and de flooding congested roads.
- Letting the rightful owners of the forest own their space on earth.
- Corruption becoming extinct.
- No holding the entire state for ransom for desecrated statues or peaceful deaths of aged actors.



Education makes a people easy to lead, but difficult to drive: easy to govern, but impossible to enslave.Peter Brougham

Good dreams about India, In my dreams, I see prosperous India in terms of people's mentality and value system rather than infrastructure.
But good dreams anyway!
