To, The Prime Minister…

ToThe Prime Minister…

This is just to say that I would not like to pay any more tax in a country where I do not get the benefits of the investments that we make. In a city that is always in news for the undying spirit that it exudes to all calamities and mishaps that it faces repeatedly.

As a citizen of this country I do not feel why things happen the way they do… I do not understand why illiterate people are part of the parliament, why politicians are richer than most intelligent & successful companies put together. Why a name that is nominated for the esteemed post of the president is a name that is not associated with any good doings or development or progress related issues but to scams & frauds.

Why no deadlines are met. Why can’t we follow a strictly corporate approach to this problem of being a backward country? We may aspire to be the most sought after nation that is so handicapped and crippled by the people who run it and abused by the people who enter and live in it.
As leaders of the company why can’t we look up to any of the politicians today and say that’s the person I want to be like? Why cant we meet the targets set. Why can’t be people be sacked for non performance. Why are our politicians not stressed about meeting their budgets/commitments? Why is that their children get free of cost funds/ loans from the costliest universities and a common man has to mortgage the ‘punji’ of his life to ensure basic education of his children?

Today ask any citizen of this country especially from Mumbai and ask him if the city of his dreams has eased any of his struggles. We pay the highest interest rates, highest tax rates, highest duties & charges, highest rental rates but what have we got in return.

There is just no ownership of the illiterate ministers who are hired in your cabinet. All the public expects from you is corruption, corruption and some more corruption. Simple facilities like public toilets cannot be used by a common man. They are used by the beggars and the neighbouring slum dwellers. When you land at the Indian airports to get a taxi, it takes half an hour. The taxi drivers fleece the customers asking them to pay them more as they have to wait for hours in the line and have to pay the cops to get into the line and get a fare. So at every stage it’s the common man who is paying for the corruption that you have induced into the system. There are fines & taxes for the common man but not for the politicians & cops who eat maximum paan and spit on the road or sometimes even pee on the road, who do not pay any tax but eat into the taxes & project fees. We can illustrate more examples that you could possibly read Mr Prime Minister!!!

There is a certain amount of elasticity that anything can support after which it will break. We refuse to stretch any further until are questions are answered and accountability is generated. If you think you guys are incapable then please let us know we would be more than willing to join politics and let people have the right they deserve.

Hope you have answers to the questions of 1.3 bn Indians!!!
