Today, I read in the newspaper that Khap Mahapanchayat of Haryana has decided to stop the supply of milk and other eatables to Delhi till their demand for amendment in the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955, effecting a ban on marriage of youths from the same Gotra (clan) is met. Well, it doesn't matter that they are killing the innocent youths who mght have become the steersmen of the Indian boat in future. Bullying, harassing, humiliating and even forcing into marriage of the love-birds have become a norm on the Valentine's Day for the self-appointed moral policemen. Recently the progressive (!) govt. has decided to bow before the Yadav trio to go for caste-based census this time which will only strengthen the vote banks and divide the already divided society further.
Our constitution-framers had envisioned the Indian democracy as a system of the people, for the people and by the people. However now our democracy seems to be as of the bullies, for the bullies and by the bullies. The barbarian era is coming back with the principle of Might is Right becoming the rule of the day. No regressive group has any fear of the law of the land which may stop them from their bullying, high-handed and terrorising activities. The fear is only for the kind-hearted, innocent and right-thinking people who cannot survive in India because of the Darwinian principle - Survival of the Fittest. They are not fit for the country.
All this presents a very dismal picture before the eyes. Every nook and corner of the country is manned and dominated by the bullies. All the evil things are done and propagated by the bullying groups and now they want official sanction for them. In all likelihood, they will get it. After all, vote bank is everything for our politicians.
