I am proud of being an Indian. I cannot help it; it is my makeup, my being. I
remember picking up and bringing home a torn telephone calling card from the
road next to the dust bin becuase I saw part of 'Tiranga' on it. I am sure I am
not the only one and there are many more. However, recent events fill me with pain.
No so long ago, a very prominent judicial person who headed some enquiry that lasted 20 odd years when being interviewed by media in some garden, probably his own, became agitated and used nothing but 4 letter words. And, I asked myself,'is this guy really a high ranking member of judiciary? For his language matched that of a street thug?' And, last week I read about District magistrate Amit Kumar slapping an employee because he dared ask him for an ID - just in case anyone did not see it, here is the link;
Lucknow DM slaps govt employee
I could understand him loosing cool, although not acceptable or condoned, if he was not asked for his ID.
With these prime examples of 'gutter level' judiciary;
How can we expect justice?
How can we check terrorism?
How can we be united?
Do the 'high ranks' not think 'low ranks' are Indians?
Do these people even think what image they portray of India in the West?
Are we supposed to be proud of these people?
More importantly, why does India society not condemn this sort of behavior?
Absolutely, revolting.
If you want to know what I would have done? I would have rammed a fist on his face, given him a bloody nose, knocked of a few teeth and then pleaded
self defense on an unprovoked attack and have him charged with abstracting an official in executing his normal duties.
'I do not do injustice and do not tolerate injustice' May my God always
guide and protect me.
