From British Raj to License Raj to Scam Raj

Its been 60 years since India got rid of its British Imperial rulers and their pupet kings or 'princes' as the British rulers referred to the local rulers. India was a money minting machine for the British Imperialists. Post Independence it were the bureaucratic rulers. While we have been unable to get rid of the bureaucratic imperials we have added another group. The political rulers. These people are appointed or elected to govern out nation. These people in turn the rulers of our nation. We are a source to bolster their income. We have always been money minting machine for our rulers.
Today we live in a Scam Raj. Now scams are not rare. There are always a few people who are interested in making easy bucks. The problem here is that the very people who are supposed to protect us from these scams, are part of these scams. A few elements in a society involved in such scams to earn easy bucks is understandable, but there is something seriously wrong when majority of those who are part of the government are involved in such and have absolutely no shame despite getting caught. They are no longer afraid of the people. That makes one wonder why. What is it about our country that makes us so easy target. Maybe its the lack of unity. Maybe its the selfish gene. Maybe it is general apathy towards rules and regulation. Maybe it is indifference towards other humans. Maybe it is lack of civil sense amongst the citizens. Maybe it is all of it. Whatever the reason maybe, we are an easy target for looting. These bureaucrats or politicians do no drop out of heaven or hell, nor are they from some different country or world. They are part of our population. People get the government that they deserve. Even in dictatorship it is them same. It is because the people allow the dictator to rule over them, that they have the power over the people. No person can rule over a person without his/her consent.
So if we have such thieves ruling us, we have only ourselves to blame. We who get carried away with the politics based on regions , religions, caste or whatever else it is that divides us. India is known for its unity in diversity. I guess we have lost unity and now what is left is diveristy. I am sure our poiliticians would be happy and proud of what they have achieved. After they just love divisive politics and the way our populance is divided along every concievable line, we are just easing their games. They are well aware that as long as we maintain this divide they wont have to really put in any efforts for the country and its people to retain their power. This has made them fearless.
Previously people used to joke that the main qualification to be a politician was to have some criminal record. Today those jokes say scam record instead of criminal record. The jokes still remain. That is the root of all problems. We are joke about such serious issues.
The scam like Aadarsh, 2G , CWG and Telgi are just a few big scam which were exposed. There may be many more which never made it to public. One such scam which is right before the public eyes but has been ignored is the Parliament scam. This scam is led by Opposition in Indian Paliament. Indian treasury spends crores on everr Paliamentry session. That money surely does not come out of these suckers coffers. Its the taxpayers money. They state that the money is spent on Parlimentry Affairs. The money is spent on welfare of people by providing facilities to peoples representatives who meet every few months to deliberate on prevous actions of government and decide future course for the country. Did I miss something or was the recently concluded winter session of the Parliament which was concluded without any biz. being conducted, in any way for welfare of my country. These suckers enjoyed the hospitality at our expenses. What work did they do? Surely if these are elected by popular support of the people they must be doing some work to have such support. Maybe I had dozed off when they were working. These 'representatives' are holding the People Of The Republic Of India at ransom because the people did not allow them to be the government and they were forced to sit in oppostion. Perhaps they are just too lazy and wanted to spend more time in suites provided to them at public expense. Maybe they were fooling the people of India into believing that they were doing graet work for the people by stalling the Parliament by making suire that the curent scamster government was made answerable for the scams.Whatever it was, the country was swindled of crores of Rupees.
The sad part of this second largest democracy is that all these elected representatives of the people are not answerble to those who elect them. They are not forced to atone for their crimes. Pity. These scamsters go free.
The likes of Kalamadi or Raja never get any punishment. After all its the 'Scam Raj, dupe the public treasury of money and maybe yopu can get to be next Prime Minister, if not that then at least a MP.
