“Society to be left themselves for correction” Lets defy this conventional belief

As we all know that man is a social animal and are hence depended on each other for survival which means that we have a give and take relationship with the society , but we all will agree with our conscious alive that we only take from society and give nothing in return. It should be a responsibility sharing and just not one sided responsibility. Its real painful to see that how reluctant we are even to face the hideous truth of the society. One such instance which we come across in our everyday life is the hidden pain at the traffic signals.
Each day at the traffic signals we come across the big problems of our society in a very casual way and we hardly have time to evaluate these problems. Even if we take one individual in the signal have we ever noticed that how many problems she is undergoing through like forced disability, prostitute, begging ,malnutrition , and early child birth etc. We give some money and try to shed our responsibility towards the society. Is it a correct attitude ? I really wonder sometime whether by giving that small token of money are we helping them or are we encouraging these bad practices of the mafia.
There are even some NGO’s who are working on these areas but are they really focusing on these issues or they are again doing it for some of their selfish motives like fund gatheration, propaganda etc. Nevertheless we need to seek for some of these solutions rather urgently as time is really passing out and we are concentrating more on the broader aspects like global warming, revival of Economic recession etc. but forgetting the basics of human life. We claim to be culturally rich, we also claim that we in India faced the recession in the best possible way when compared to rest of the world but if we see the mirror through our society we really tend to ask ourselves can we really boost off on such issues where we could not even handle the basic dirts of the society ?
Trust me, when we have an indifferent attitude towards these so called small issues and we do not feel the pain within inside and can afford to live a lavish life, that is the greatest loss of life even worst than a death itself. Because death comes to life only once and these pain approaches us most frequently.
So lets do something and to start with lets feel the pain at the outset so that we can think from our heart as to what can be done…. If we all start thinking I am sure we can come to some route to success, like may be we stop paying them at all so that the profitability of the mafia goes down and they look to this business as a non profit one and discourage it altogether and so on…..

  2. spoonfull of food for thought you have given....but then public approach is limited till preventive measures...to eliminate the root causes, our Government must indulge in it with a more critical eye...which i guess is not happening in the scale it should...

  3. Good Article.

    This made me think how to distinguish between a genuine needy person and someone who is a fake. Would we not depriving 1 in 1000 (maybe 10000, 100000.. not sure of the scale) of actual help ? Is this risk worth experimenting?

    According to UNICEF, some 221 million people in India are still chronically or acutely malnourished. The cycle of poverty starts from the child. Fulfilling children’s rights breaks that cycle. Providing them with basic education, health care, nutrition makes the child more secure.

    India Govt's policy of implementing "Right to Education" might be a first foot forward to this direction.

    Would like to read your views on this topic someday.

  5. Lipi, I am sure now that you are in wrong proffession... After reading all your articles, I can make out that you have immense potential to be a Author or good columnist.
    Congrats for your writings on such vivid topics...
    But to my mind, Though evils may be numerous, they
    cannot prevail over a single great truth, i.e. we all need to become Many in body.. & one in mind... If we all follow great path of Justice & Truth..Correct Teachings is very important which will bring froots of Victory in every spheres.
    Keep up the good work!!
