I quote well phrased following extract from PPI:
“If India-born, India-educated Indians can run many global corporations which operate in hundreds of countries worldwide, with turnovers of thousands of crores of rupees, employing millions of people of every nationality, why, after six decades of self-governance, are 300 million Indians below the poverty line, and 350 million Indians illiterate ? Why are water and electricity still in short supply?” Why should there be poverty and illiteracy in the first place?” The government has all the capabilities and resources to eliminate these two scourges but the willingness is absent.
Still we failed because there are many unenlightened and uneducated politicians, even criminals, sitting in our legislatures and making policy decision. Parliament has to be run professionally like the way you run your respective organizations run.
Encourage your employees to participate in politics. Spread the word. Don’t be afraid. It is only when the educated and enlightened come into politics that things will change. You don’t need to spend your time, effort, and money on uplifting literacy and poverty. It can happen automatically if there is good governance in Indian politics.”
