The current
political class is behaving like “Demons of Democracy”, working for their own
sake instead of welfare of people, performing their actions without any sense
of public responsibility and accountability. By exploiting people and public
servants, this political class is continuously creating hurdle in efficient,
effective and economic execution of different social schemes and various
developmental policies through corruption, capitalism, etc. In a welfare State like India, which enjoys
her democratic character only at political front through Universal Adult
Franchise, should further intensified her democratic attribute at social as
well as economic front. It can be happened
by a number of small but very efficient legislations within a federal
structure like Right to Service which ensures a time bound service delivery mechanism;
Right to Hearing concerns about the grievances after a late delivery of public
service; Right to Have Occupation strengthens the people to work for country as
well as provides them employment; Right to Food concerning the problem of
hunger and malnutrition which once time has been said India’s national Shame;
Right to Have A Pollution Free Environment; social security rights for women
and children; etc. Some of these rights have already been legislated, but the
thing is that they have been only legislated. In fact to change the current
picture of creeping development of our nation, an active enforcement of these
legislations is the much need of our society. Only this type of socio-political
structure will inject a sense of responsibility & accountability in our
political class and then we will run on the path of development with our full
economic strength. But remember, all this will happen if each of us will cast
his/her vote in elections with a scientific, unbiased mind far from caste and
religion.
