Lets Beat Up

There was a report on Mumbai Mirror of a Pani Puri guy who pissed in the cup that he used to serve it in, his reason lack of any place to pee, unhygienic, gross yes. So what should be done, here is what a few political parties decided to do, they went out of their way to beat up lots of food and roadside vender's destroying a lot of property, and I am pretty much sure its without checking who was clean or who was not.

Well I have a few suggestions of my own for these political parties to beat up, here goes,

Lets Beat Up...

1. All people who spit on the roads pann or otherwise.
2. All people who crap and piss on the road.
3. All people who throw garbage on the road.
4. All people who beg.
5. All people who sell stuff by the wayside illegally.
6. All the corrupt people.
7. All the black marketers.
8. All people who accept bribes.
9. All people who give bribes.
10. All who use their influence to get out of crime.
11. All the robbers, murderers, rapists etc.
12.  and lastly All the people who beat up other people just to gain political millage.

Wont it be nice, all people beating up all people, but first all I would like to say let the person who thinks he is clear of all this all his life start the process...

JAN LOKPAL BILL is this victory?

So the government gave into Anna Hazare's fasting and what he has done is in turn is wake up a nation to ask, talk, blog, protest etc etc. So as I understand it now we will have a committee of people who will have the power to look into the corrupt. So a LokPal will be appointed at the centre. He will have an autonomous charge, say like the Election Commission of India. In each and every state, Lokayukta will be appointed. The job is to bring all alleged party to trial in case of corruptions within 1 year. 

Within 2 years, the guilty will be punished. Not like, Bofors scam or Bhopal Gas Tragedy case, that has been going for last 25 years without any result. But what if the people that get appointed are also corrupt? then what? Is not the government the same thing, after all we only have elected these people. All I can say that this is only a group of people who will be in charge of reducing corruption. 

Also what I didn't like in all of this was the way the things were one to achieve this. So every time we feel something is wrong we will go on hunger strikes and hold governments or organisations at ransom, what happened to talks and discussions. Well I guess this was better than a strike, or stone throwing or those kind of methods.     

But is it not in our hands to reduce corruption, don't we all give the traffic cops  a 50 or a 20 to avoid getting a challan or do we not pay to speed up our work like to get our ration cards or passports or papers from the government office. Don't people bribe others to get some work done, some do it to win Job's / Contracts in their favor. So then how can we stop others from doing something that we don't even think twice before doing?

So is there a solution to all this madness, well if this Bill passed reduces corruption then great or we all go back to our corrupt ways. The only way I feel that you can make people correct their behavior is fear. As kids we were all afraid of punishment, well at least most did, those who got punished more often had got used to it and it stopped effecting them later.

So here are some of my suggestions towards punishments if people are found guilty,
1. Ban these from Job role that they are doing for a period in relative to the crime say starting from 5 years onwards. eg, a person caught taking bribe should be banned from working in that position for that period across that medium.
2. Hefty fine should be for all cases, like 10 to 100 times the amount.
3. Jail in serious cases for sure.
4. Both parties the giver and the receiver should get charged..


I could go on and on but will that be of any effect, I don't know, may be its just up to to me to change myself and hope all would be doing the same.
