Voting in and out someone cannot be a sin!

2014 General Election in India was no doubt a mass movement, a mass movement since 1977, a mass movement against the last refuse of scoundrel, a mass movement against the alleged corruption on the part of the leading political party at the helm of the government, a mass movement against the deteriorating law and order of the country and last but not least a mass movement against the center which was responsible for everything: Why the chief ministers are taking steps for development and why not, why is water supplied to the colonies and why not and why people eat in abundance and why not etc. The Citizen of India voted in mass and broke all the records of voting percentages. Voted in mass for change. Voted in mass for development. Youths and/or first time voters were overwhelming to throw out the incumbent. Everyone were promised of good days, good days in the form of employment, good days in the form of good governance, good days in the form of honesty, good days in the form of punishing the main culprit and rescuing the innocents, good days in the form of conservation of natural resources, good days in the form of conserving forests and environment, good days in the form of taming the inflation, good days in the form of border security etc. etc.      

Before the election, we have seen numerous mass protests against the government. A pressure tactics was used to pressurize government to succumb before the hidden plebiscites of some unauthorized group of activists. Activists like Anna Hazare and nexus were so desperate that the Indian Sovereignty was in danger or it was about to become a slave if Lokpal which later renamed Jokepal in sarcasm by some section of society or you can say a tool to destabilize the government or you can say a pan to bake your own bread,  is not appointed. Anna Hazare's supporters were so busy in to be enthroned that they were using all the possible means and opportunities to give a bit of their mind. All the sections of media were so busy in glorifying all of the bits of the activists in such a way as if it is portrayed that a single family of mother-son was usurping the constitution. Constitution of India which has deep root of democracy. Political game later appeared to be fixed but India witnessed a transformation in politics. One single party got the majority in 30 years on a promise of good days, a promise which was construed by the demagogues that no one shall have any work to do rather the government shall feed them

A government was formed and people were relaxed that now India is free from all hassle. Oh! No! Government is busy in some other work, other work which is unknown, opaque and full of strides. Voters who voted in was demanding their share of good days from the government now became an easy target of some section of society and situation is that sooty began to mock black chimney. Every time these innocent voters are remembered of the days before general election 2014 and taunted for good days on a pretext that the situation was worse and hence the government is incapable of providing any  quick relief.

Yes it is the right of each single voter irrespective of the fact that (s)he voted in the incumbent government or not to ask the government to be accountable. The henchmen are lynching the soul of the voters to shrinking from incurring an obligation. The voters cultivated the land of good days, irrigated, fertilized and sowed the seeds. Now vegetable has grown, plucked from the plant, kept in cold storage and the voters are asking their share so that they could dice the fresh vegetable and make into the pot for cooking. What is your problem Mr. Watchman? Why your men are arguing that this demand of good days is illicit? Why are they taunted of their poverty? Why are they shamelessly called the king of the world? Yes, they were the king of the World where dream was decided by them, of the world where they were told to do labour and decide their own shares, for the world which was dependent upon them, for the world where litterateurs were  listened. 

Litterateurs are returning their Awards on the protests that the government is not listening them and the cultural clashes round the corner are taking place. You know it better that winning a prize for any body is a moment which cannot be explained in words. I have seen Ms. Usha Uthup crying after receiving the first Filmfare Award for the best female singer. A litterateur is alone without award. No one recognizes him/her with courage. A sense of pity for him/her is prevailing in the society. (S)He is a living corpus, a living corpus who is scared with himself/herself, a living corpus whose nib is pointless, a living corpus who shall have oxygen of literary sense after receiving the proper redressal of the issues. They are returning their award only for a favour that guilty be punished with iron hand while cultural disharmony that is prevailing in the society be stopped. They won the award for writing the stuff to encouraging social harmony, encouraging cultural harmony and above all encouraging the national integrity. How can they see disintegration, disintegration of their values, disintegration of social values? 

They raise the voice and some "Gunda" type followers shut their mouth by saying they got no right to speak as they have not voted the incumbent government in. How come these "Gunda" know? What are the spiritual forces which inspires these "Gunda" to know who have voted in and/out? As only the voter know this. Don't you think this "Gunda" type people are encouraging "Chalta Hai" i.e. casual attitude? Don't you think this "Gunda" tyype people are tarnishing the image of the strong government formed after almost three decades or at least for grammatical error two decades? Don't you think this attitude is suicidal for any government/country/democracy? O.K. You are given an opportunity till 2019 so let us not talk on the same.

You must remember, Guruji Ravindranath Tagore returned the prestigious Knighthood Award to the Crown in 1919 in the wake of Jaliavala Bagg Kand. Was he wrong? Khushvant Singh returned Padam Samman in the wake of 1984 Sikkh Carnage. He was a Sikkh and hence there could have been every possibility that he would have vested interest in returnig the Samman despite at the same time was he wrong? Certainly not. Certainly not because both of them found no other way to pierce their sense of feeling in the ear of the government at their own separate time. 

Why not to beseech you to kindly listens to those who oppose you? Why not to beseech you to  kindly act on your Rajdharma/Reign? Why not to beseech you to kindly not to denounce a wrong person for saving some cultural ethos which is falsely in danger? Why not to beseech you to kindly cry the Litterateurs heart out to feel their pain once? Why not to beseech you to kindly walk the farthest way about which is nearest way home for social harmony? Why not to beseech you to kindly do not make your voters feel guilty for giving  a chance to newcomer? Why not to beseech you to kindly understand that your voters are wise enough to vote you in? Why not to beseech you to kindly make the society peaceful and try all the possible effort to resettle our Pandit brothers/sisters in K-Velly and bring all types of peace in the state of Punjab? That is it! Jay Hind! Jay Bharat!
