Anyway, I hear so many complaints (and contribute to the complaining) about various things that are wrong with the nation but it just seems to be getting worse and I'm starting to think whether maybe this is the plan after all.
Road accidents cause a huge number of deaths in our country. I'll get you the exact figures.
I've heard of 2 cases this week of people falling into manholes and dying.
I've heard numerous poorer women cry about their drunken husbands beating them up and spending all their money to drink more. This last month one of their husbands died because of this.
Still not something to be concerned about?
ps - more such theories to come
pps - if I'm killed or thrown in jail, it's because I care. So there.
woah! I have become your fan all over again!
ReplyDeleteAlso one more thing: The fastest way to end poverty is to just let poor people die.
Brilliant and true
ReplyDeleteThis has summed up every single thing I've ever felt about this country!
ReplyDeleteMustn't forget them politicians who spend all our money on building stupid statues of themselves!
Very powerful, Anju. More people need to have cojones like you!
ReplyDeletewell. we have already used all your ideas. but still headcount is increasing.
ReplyDeletePlease innovate something new. :)
Anju - you've put in a lot of thoeugh and work into this one - and I agree with you... :) It's a BIT on the negative side .. :) but good stuff... :) This definitely needs to be shared!
ReplyDeleteI tripped,lost a footing and stumbled in here from the indiblogger coteiere of liking and fanning blogs.Hell..I love this blog and the way you portray lines with the shark.Great going...and it goes without saying, am following :)
ReplyDeleteI think people give India`s population as an excuse since it is difficult to enforce rules and codes of behavior on a large population. Only China seems to have managed this. The problem lies with the people themselves. They should have the decency not to dirty the environment around them, and should be considerate of others.
ReplyDeletePeople that allow tv to influence their behavior, have no mind of their own and are incapable of independent thought (shame). Consuming alcohol in excess is a symptom of burying ones head in the sand.
Problems with the infrastructure is mainly due to the employees of government entities that run railways, roads and electricity are under paid and are there only to receive a basic salary and benefits. They have no pride in their work and this shows on the work they do or don`t. But I have to say Delhi`s metro is immaculate. So all is not bad.
However, as India`s standard of living increases and people like you make this an issue, things should improve.
