Corruption
is a power abuse, which refers to a unique situation when the powerful
manipulates those with less power or having no power at all. It exists
everywhere around the globe in different forms, however, the degree to which it
impacts the common people’s lives and increases poverty is directly proportional
to the level of this misery and how widespread it is in society. Corruption
hampers the growth of a society on political, economical and environmental
dimensions.
In a democratic system, public
institutions and offices may lose their legitimacy when they misuse their power
for private interest. It reduces interest of political participation and
results in unstable politics, lessening the political competition ultimately invalidating
the will to practice transparency in political decision making, distorting
political development which further leads to sustenance of political activity
based on patronage, clients, and money etc. India has been amongst the list of
most corrupt nations of the world and unfortunately ranks 94th on
the corruption index of an organization which endeavors to battle corruption
globally. It is a national shame that we being on the verge of becoming a
developed nation and biggest democracy of the world haven’t learned to function
as a country that cares for the welfare of its citizens ensuring good
governance to them.
A man from a small town of northern
India gets disheartened at the rampant corruption which engulfs his entire
country, mocking the lengthiest constitution of the world and putting it in
hands of a demon called communalism. He reaches out for safeguarding of his
country’s constitution and takes some revolutionary steps which could convince
his conscience. He didn’t remain silent when humanity suffered; he shouldered
his responsibilities as a citizen of India respecting humanity which happens to
be his religion. He was just an ordinary man but went ahead with his
extraordinary love for motherland and risked his life and future for the future
of the land he was born in.
Today he is suffering, and suffers the family
which awaits him to be with them as their guardian angel. He is suffering
because he tried to save us & our future, risking his own, won’t we payback
when he needs our help today? When the honorable high court has clearly asked
to commute his punishment & the stubborn government isn't listening at all?
It becomes our responsibility to make the deaf listen; we have to show our
support with this son of soil, the motherland is proud of. He is Hari Singh. Let’s be with him as he
fights for right, let’s be his strength in his struggle for justice, let’s end
his family’s never ending wait. Justice
for Hari Singh.
