...This might be on a hypercynical side..


however,
I was talking to my mentor Shri Birla today morning.

his every "hello manik" conversation is inspirational.
he started with cricket...about "nothing is impossible"....aus v/s SA record scores !

Later, he was trying to sell me the fact why not to return to India.

IIM grad Shri Manjunath - who was murdered in fuel adulteration case.

Earlier, IIT grad who was killed in highways case (Shri Dubey)

These are miserable accounts.


My thoughts:
I agree 100 % with what he said. It is dangerous to be in India and pick up a fight with someone.
But this was (and may be still is) the life here in US when organized crime guys run the scene.
Bribed/terrified - the govt officials in US led a similar life during the days of the mafia

The more sophisticated mafias have legitimized their business.
Check out Bugsy, ...u will get to know the Vegas casino histories.
Check out the Sopranos . This prb will always be there.

It would be their terror or the ruling govt's terror.
If ruling govt is the bigger goon then it is better.
But they can lead to overall downfall. For e.g. the Bush govt in United States.

I have checked out the Indian mafia in bbay at close quarters.
Have had met for some purposes with their frontmen who are in legitimate businesses.
They dont harrass common man either.

It is all the same everywhere!
US is no different than us.

So, I dont essentially agree on this front that US is better than us.

the only edge they get is due to the money they have.
if a person does a crime somewhere...he can get easily caught due to the amount of money and sheer brute force the investigating authorities can apply.

Also, money is plenty.. hence, need to do crime is lesser.

These 2 reasons (need to enter a criminal plot and the harshness of consequence if one is caught) both deter crime enough.

This shall happen in India once they are able to manage with ample money and resources.
One of the problems with burdening population is justice can be delayed due to sheer number of outstanding cases and lack of resources to resolve the conflicts. ...

and

Justice delayed is Justice denied.

hence, one needs to fight for it.
Then, be it Infy or be it social world....one has to fight for it.
