Mumbaikars! Demand, don't beg - Pritish Nandy

Well with all the sleaze that I associate with Times of India and its editing staff, incapable of correcting even the basic grammatical and spell errors, that even Microsoft Office can do for them there is this rare article from its unworthy stable of scribes that rouses the inner fire of any decent Mumbaikar. Definitely a must read for any Indian it is high time we start moving towards our goals of a system that is supposedly meant for the people, its high time we had a democracy that means more than just the right to vote, an environment where the masses are not just statistics and numbers, a society where every life is just as valuable as another, a country where we shall be proud to live and proud to die for. Enough of the rhetorics, enough of crappy analysis of politicos and shoddy economic analysts telling me something that I just cant see around me. Telling me that India is doing great whereas the kids of my vendors still can be sent to school, where I still cant afford a decent place to stay and even if I do I can't be sure of the quality of the same. I still cant go into a mall or a restaurant and be treated with civility and decency because the manager/owner there knows that if I don't like it there is another person who wouldn't mind being treated like a dog and he will spend just as much. Is this what we are working so hard for. There has to be some civic reward for living in a democracy, dont you agree?

Just Think!! We can make the difference and now is a time as good as any other that will come across in our life...!
