Let’s do it…..…

Once again we are going to see the high intensity million rupee drama of IPL (Indian Political League). It has been an experience of roller coaster ride for us and I believe our political leaders must have experienced the same.


I am here not to promote or demote any political party or their so called agendas. I am here to recall our experiences of last five years which we have moved together side by side with lots of ups and downs, hopes and tears. During this course of five years we have achieved so many milestones even we lost so many of our near & dears in many different tragic incidents that happened.

Let us glance through some of the issues which are still in our minds while moving towards the future with lots of hopes and aspirations.

- Global economic melt down.

- A troubled neighborhood – Jihadis in Pakistan and Bangladesh. LTTE in Sri Lanka, Ulfa in Northern-Eastern Region, Naxalites in Andhra Pradesh, Chattishgarh, Orissa and above all we have some home grown jihadis too.

-Attack on heritage hotels like Taj Mahal & Trident Hilton in Mumbai. Serial bomb blasts in many parts of India

-Attacks on the innocent people in Orissa, Mumbai, and Karnataka on the name of religion and region.

-Fighting over the issues of Cauvery and Kashmir since many decade

-Gujar agitation in Rajasthan

- Attack on Indian embassy in Kabul, attack on ethnic Indians in Malaysia

There are countless issues on which we have been debating, fighting and blaming each other but it’s not like we have only issues to fight for but there are many achievements on which we take pride as well.

- Successful completion of the mission Chandryan

- Wining Oscars by the musical maestro A.R.Rehman, Resul Pokkuty, Grammy by Ustad Zakir Hussain or wining gold in Olympics by Abhinav Bindra.

- Wining the World Chess title by Vishwanthan Anand, Booker’s prize by Arvind Adiga.

- Mukesh Ambani displacing Lakshmi Mittal to be the richest Indian in the World

We have many issues to fight for and we have many points to take pride. A leader is as good as its followers similarly a country is as good as its own citizens. It’s a cliché to say but yes if we are creeping that we do not have charismatic leaders, good infrastructures, opportunities then no one is responsible for this other then WE.

We have to take the responsibility to bring the change, to achieve many more milestones for our country, to choose the leaders through a responsible and unbiased voting.

Let me be honest and tell you that I have already crossed few years from the minimum age of voting but still not voted anyone but over the years I learnt it that its better to vote and take the responsibility rather than blaming the country and its leaders.
Let’s vote during this general election ……………..


This is an appeal to all those young Indians like me who have not experienced the power of vote
