We live in one of the largest democracies in the
world! We don't like to call ourselves a developing nation anymore, we shout
out loud "
Shinning India".
Under the constitution of India we have been
given some rights and duties. One of the basic right’s is the right of speech (right
to express). But in the last one month, after the arrest of Ravi and now the Mumbai
girls over their Twitter & FB expressions respectively, it sounds that this
freedom is all but a deception.
Out of so many writers, journalists, speakers in
this country, no one had the nerve to come out and say what these normal people
(mango men) said. It sometimes feels that these people, who share the prime
time on television reality debate shows, between 9-11 in the night, are also
hand in glove with the ones in power; or maybe they are equally scared to speak
like the mango men.
We the mango men, the so called tweeples are all
scared. We sit in front of our computer screens and vent out but do nothing fruitful.
It is the goons who actually rule us. It is the same country which it was
pre-independence & we are still the slaves. We were never free and will
never be so. Not at least in my lifetime.
We can vent out about our apprehended freedom over
the internet but that’s about it. But nothing much can be done against these
people who are in power, either. One can sight the example of how swiftly Ravi
and Mumbai girls were captured by cops, but it took them more than 48 hours to
capture people who vandalized the clinic of a doctor.
Jonathan Swift once said:
“Laws are like cobwebs, which may catch small flies, but let wasps and hornets break through.”
I am not happy scripting such a pessimistic blog, but that’s
the reality we live in.
Think! Can we really change the system, sitting in front of
our computer screens? Can we manage to take on those in power, without being susceptible?
