My country is up for sale!! Anyone interested..?

As I watched today in total shock and horror the events unfolding at 5 min past 4, it has left me with in total shock. The Indian democracy will fall to such depth was inconceivable for me. Whatever I used to hear till now used to come under the ambit of the compulsions of coalition politics, but today MPs showing bundles of notes in the parliament itself, has not only shaken but destroyed the very foundations on which it was built. In a country in which I am sure 40% of its people haven't even seen a 1000 Rs note, MPs were flashing thousands of those notes that too in a place which considered a temple, a temple of democracy. 

I don't know what actually happened behind the scenes, as to whether the money was offered or the whole episode has been staged, but one thing is certain, it should not have been exposed in a manner in which it has been. Who is this stupid trio of MPs and what right have they got to malign the image of the entire country in front of the world. They have ensured that from now on for a long time we will feel ashamed of calling ourselves Indians, a country in which you buy your way to power and call it democracy. Those MPs could have called a press conference and showed the money there. I am sure many news channels would have gladly covered this story. Then why did they have to do this in the parliament, that too when they have no concrete proof, its jus their word and the money. 

At a time when we are trying to project a certain image of our country, at a time when we are debating on a deal which is being envied by many countries, its very sad that such an episode be staged in our parliament. We talk of catching up with China. China executes corrupt people, we glorify them, bring them to power. 

The Indian political system is basically flawed. Its obvious that multi party democracy is not working. It has resulted in large scale corruption, open and blatant corruption, a grave disregard for decency and integrity, criminalization of politics and ultimately this. The Speaker himself said today afternoon in Lok Sabha that Indian democracy has reached its nadir, well I guess he didn't foresee what was going to happen later.

I don't know what will be the outcome of this entire episode, but one thing is sure, it has sent a strong message to all the people in the world, My country is up for Sale, its just waiting for the right buyer, Anyone interested..?
