Unfortunately, 63 years after Independence, this dream of Mahatma Gandhi, remains just a dream and will probably continue so in future too. 'Ramrajya'&nbsp; cannot be a reality because our country's leaders have too many vices and too few virtues. Degeneration of values in our society, soaring prices, frequent droughts and floods, corruption, red-tapism have led to dissatisfaction and disillusionment in the minds of the people.</font><br /> <br /> <font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="3">One of the most important causes of our failures in this regard is that our citizens are not active and do not participate in the process of governance. Citizens' involvement in the affairs of the government can bring about a sea change in the current scenario.

A huge population without the power of scientific reasoning has rendered all our efforts ineffective in controlling population. Some 82% of the population strongly believes in the caste system. This has been a great setback in promoting equality among the people. This has also resulted in suppressing the lower castes, which comprise a huge majority and adversely affect the people's living conditions. Poverty has spread and today about 30% of the people in India live below the poverty line. As a consequence of very poor medical facilities, the economically backward, the sick, the orphans and the widows cannot get adequate treatment for their health problems, resulting in much sickness and disease in the country.

There are bound to be anti-social activities. The unemployed youth indulge in theft, extortion, fight and even rape and murder. Law and order problems are rife throughout the country.

Unfortunately, 63 years after Independence, this dream of Mahatma Gandhi, remains just a dream and will probably continue so in future too. 'Ramrajya' cannot be a reality because our country's leaders have too many vices and too few virtues.

We have not succeeded in controlling the rise in the number of people for the past 63 years despite a slew of measures. The reason for the failure of this mission is that almost 40% of our population is illiterate. A huge population without the power of scientific reasoning has rendered all our efforts ineffective in controlling population. Some 82% of the population strongly believes in the caste system. This has been a great setback in promoting equality among the people. This has also resulted in suppressing the lower castes, which comprise a huge majority and adversely affect the people's living conditions. Poverty has spread and today about 30% of the people in India live below the poverty line. As a consequence of very poor medical facilities, the economically backward, the sick, the orphans and the widows cannot get adequate treatment for their health problems, resulting in much sickness and disease in the country. It is a shame that even after 63 years of Independence such conditions persist in the country.</font><br /><br /><font >A huge population engulfed by poverty and illiteracy has given rise to unemployment. Millions of youth, many of them educated, are unemployed. This number increases every minute. There was a time when only illiterate people were unemployed but today a majority of the educated youth suffer due to lack of employment opportunities. An idle mind is the devil's workshop. There are bound to be anti-social activities. The unemployed youth indulge in theft, extortion, fight and even rape and murder. Law and order problems are rife throughout the country. Factors such as labour unrest, communal tension, party rivalries, soaring prices and growing discontent and indiscipline among the students and politicians, problems of law and order have become a rule rather than an exception.</font><br /><br /><font >Yet another cancerous disease, which has suppressed the growth of our society, is corruption in public and private lives. It is rampant in political and administrative fields. Corruption stems from the people's willingness to pay money to get their work done.

We have not succeeded in controlling the rise in the number of people for the past 63 years despite a slew of measures. The reason for the failure of this mission is that almost 40% of our population is illiterate. A huge population without the power of scientific reasoning has rendered all our efforts ineffective in controlling population. Some 82% of the population strongly believes in the caste system. This has been a great setback in promoting equality among the people. This has also resulted in suppressing the lower castes, which comprise a huge majority and adversely affect the people's living conditions. Poverty has spread and today about 30% of the people in India live below the poverty line. As a consequence of very poor medical facilities, the economically backward, the sick, the orphans and the widows cannot get adequate treatment for their health problems, resulting in much sickness and disease in the country. It is a shame that even after 63 years of Independence such conditions persist in the country.</font><br /><br /><font >A huge population engulfed by poverty and illiteracy has given rise to unemployment.

There are bound to be anti-social activities. The unemployed youth indulge in theft, extortion, fight and even rape and murder. Law and order problems are rife throughout the country. Factors such as labour unrest, communal tension, party rivalries, soaring prices and growing discontent and indiscipline among the students and politicians, problems of law and order have become a rule rather than an exception.</font><br /><br /><font >Yet another cancerous disease, which has suppressed the growth of our society, is corruption in public and private lives.

Gandhiji's dream of 'Ramrajya' a long way from being realized |
We have just celebrated yet another birth anniversary of the Father of the Nation Mahatma Gandhi. Mahatma had a vision for free India, which was to give the nation a people-friendly governance—'Ramrajya'. Unfortunately, 63 years after Independence, this dream of Mahatma Gandhi, remains just a dream and will probably continue so in future too. 'Ramrajya' cannot be a reality because our country's leaders have too many vices and too few virtues. Degeneration of values in our society, soaring prices, frequent droughts and floods, corruption, red-tapism have led to dissatisfaction and disillusionment in the minds of the people. One of the most important causes of our failures in this regard is that our citizens are not active and do not participate in the process of governance. Citizens' involvement in the affairs of the government can bring about a sea change in the current scenario. Unfortunately, this does not take place because everyone's intention is to live and let others live, no matter what the quality of life. Awareness about our rights and duties is of utmost importance, which is totally lacking in a majority of India's citizens. People have to respond to the acts of the government. The citizen who is aware of the happenings in the country and who has the capability of understanding and reasoning it out is in a position to attempt to do something for his society. Unfortunately, this does not happen because our citizens, like our leaders, are more interested in self-development rather than the development of their fellow citizens. There are numerous challenges before the authorities in particular, and the citizens in general, because each one of us is responsible, directly or indirectly, for the state of affairs prevailing in the country today. We cannot shirk our responsibilities towards the aim of achieving 'Ramrajya'. Let us aim high so that we at least achieve 50% of what Mahatma visualized for the future of India. The major challenge before the nation today is the increasing population. We have not succeeded in controlling the rise in the number of people for the past 63 years despite a slew of measures. The reason for the failure of this mission is that almost 40% of our population is illiterate. A huge population without the power of scientific reasoning has rendered all our efforts ineffective in controlling population. Some 82% of the population strongly believes in the caste system. This has been a great setback in promoting equality among the people. This has also resulted in suppressing the lower castes, which comprise a huge majority and adversely affect the people's living conditions.

As a consequence of very poor medical facilities, the economically backward, the sick, the orphans and the widows cannot get adequate treatment for their health problems, resulting in much sickness and disease in the country. It is a shame that even after 63 years of Independence such conditions persist in the country. A huge population engulfed by poverty and illiteracy has given rise to unemployment. Millions of youth, many of them educated, are unemployed. This number increases every minute.
