1. INDIA -RISING OF THE PHOENIX
THE NEED OF AN AWAKENING..

2. INDIA: A RAGING BILLION HEARTS..
NATION GROWING TO TEMPTATIONS ..
but this rise superficial
• Self sufficient & strong nation; economy witnessing an
unprecedented boom.
• Centre where intelligentsia & excellence thrive in cummunion; IT
industry peaking; developing cities; Indian Diaspora; multi-lateral
investments; multinational infrastructure & so on..
• This rise is superficial as the common Indian & the core India is still
struggling for food,water, electricity, irrigation, employment,
education, social emancipation & umpteen such requisites..
• Entire system infested by corruption, criminalization, political &
social turmoil,paralyzed basic value system..
• Need for an awakening ..
of the youth, the politicians, the bureaucracy, the media, the
judiciary;the society.. the people .. the NATION ..

3. POLITICAL & SOCIAL TURMOIL
THE MENACE & THE MEDICINE
1.ELECTIONS & INDIAN POLITY-The basic
tenet of democracy besmirched;the steps for a
grand revival.ABOLISH CANVASSING.Fair
elections..
2.SOCIAL BASIC VALUE SYSTEM & its
permeability in the education system
The basic values system has to shift towards
akhand bharatvarsha’s values of
integrity,commitment to motherland & ideological
growth-vedanta,sanskriti;aping the west
growth-vedanta,sanskriti
CANNOT compliment Indian needs

4. POLITICAL & SOCIAL TURMOIL
THE MENACE & THE MEDICINE
3. ‘YATHA RAJA,TATHA PRAJA’ curb corruption at the top.
Index of growth in terms of practical concerns of a common
Indian;India,of the elite, has to give way to the Bharat;the
people have to be empowered..
4.Conscious citizens of a rising nation ..
The people have to awaken against the malicious & corrupt
agents of the systems; people must at least administer their
right to vote.
• A full stop to the possibility of criminal law-breakers
becoming the law-makers.
• Active participation of the conscious, concerned &
committed youth in politics & nation-building. An
awakening generation..

5. Core revelation
INDIAN YOUTH :THE NEED OF AN
AWAKENING
• India: A paradise lost; & regained..
Hemant Kumar Panchal-One unique
Panchal
tale of inspiration
. The ADVENTURE of NATION-BUILDING:
Contribution of youth.
• C's- Courage, Consciousness & Commitment
• Courage to curtail any malicious activity to stand
against the evildoers & evils. No malicious activity
can be sustained if the Indian youth firmly decide to
forbid it. Contd..

6. Core revelation
INDIAN YOUTH :THE NEED OF AN
AWAKENING
• Conscious & aware citizens :
If we intend to change the system, the society will
also have to change. No measures can prevent the
problems of society& system until the people
become conscious & committed;until the Youth
imbibes integrity & accepts the challenges
presented by providence..
• Be proud to be an Indian. Be a racist love only
three colors - Saffron, White & Green!!

7. BUREAUCRACY: The capacity untapped
BUREAUCRACY
& burnt at the stake of corruption
• The structure of bureaucratic system; infested with corruption,
sycophancy, inefficiency & unaccountability.
• Corruption in transfers & subsequently at every trophic level
Corruption starting from postings level with ministers regarding
ministries as their private property & carried on throughout the
hierarchy of the executive.
• Corruption at the points of public contact; the cause for maximum
con
damage to the system.
• Tempestuous capacity of the framework
Indian administration, definitely, has the capacity, framework & the
potential to sweep away every damned motif & malice if it rises to
an earnest initiative.

8. PROFESSIONALISM ALONG WITH
AUTHORITARIAN DISCRETION
Blue print for efficient yet firm administration
• In agencies concerning direct acquisition of money, the system
should shift towards the approach of professionalism & utmost
accountability.To tighten the levels of conduct, vigilance has to be
strengthened. Reduce single discretion, abolish red tapism policies to
absorb total transparency, adjudged & monitored on the national
level.
• In services where public contact & social evolution is the main credo,
the responsibility, authority, accountability & independence should
given to the executive; independence from undue pressures of political
miscreants,RETAIN DISCRETION, provided opportunity & promote
excellence & ascribe to accountability. NOBILESSE
OBLIGE..AUTHORITY ENTAILS RESPONSIBILITY &
ACCOUNTABILITY

9. PROFESSIONALISM ALONG WITH
AUTHORITARIAN DISCRETION
Blue print for efficient yet firm administration
• Conditions & environment should be improved
for honesty & commitment to flourish;SYSTEM
OF REWARD & PUNISHMENT
• Nuisance - value sponsored corruption should be
curbed; measures to make it impossible at
particular places;STRICT VIGILANCE
• Responsive administration, credible, people
friendly;MEANT TO SERVE THE PEOPLE;NOT
RULE THEM

10. Challenges to Constitutional Integrity
Integrit
-Imperilment of the republic.
• Appointment of Governors.
• Role & responsibility of the President, the honorable
head of state to protect the nation from acts of
constitutional derailment & malicious
manipulations.example..Bihar assembly,Jharkhand case
• One Nation, One Law..
Establishing the
Uniform Civil Code
• End to ridiculous propaganda based politics which
divides the society & fragments national integration.

11. MEDIA : Players of Mockery ..
• Incredible responsibility as it is a voice of the people, their
concerns, their anguish & their hope .. a guardian to the
development of national consensus.
• Indian media has grown in terms of information distribution
& infrastructure, but too much emphasis on creation of a
sizzle, profoundly the 'BREAKING NEWS'
• The case of Media Bias: The calibration of the media into the
make of the fragmented society that it commands.
• Some great postures of truth &integrity maintained by some
media initiatives & some appreciable efforts but their
continuity & commitment has to improve.

12. MEDIA : Players of Mockery ..
• Media should end its obsession with negativity, failures,
criminals &dons . A message of hope has to be transpired even
in times of despair.
• Communicate to the people, the poised insight,the vision &
initiative to generate an unbiased healthy opinion.
India is being empowered & the media has to grow rationally to
the demands of an aware nation rising to fulfill her
commitments..

13. JUDICIARY- The eyes of truth; the cause
& the effect..
• Judicial activism
As Indian Judiciary stands as an independent & powerful
body, its participation in evolving the manners of state is
justified & should be encouraged.
• Accountability
Logical evaluation of performance of lower courts &
prevention of corruption from diluting the sprit of
integrity in judiciary.

14. JUDICIARY- The eyes of truth; the cause
& the effect..
• Coherent & EXPEDITIOUS Justice :
Enforce speedy justice, consideration of increasing the
number of benches;Stocking of line in worthless
procedure should be avoided.
These provisions would ensure that
THE EYES OF TRUTH are not blindfolded to the menace of
crime & can VISUALIZE the tempo of a rising nation..

15. HEROES OF A RISING NATION..
INSIGNIA OF INTEGRITY
• S.Manjunath,Satyendra Dubey,Sanjay Singh –Episodes of
honesty,sacrifice & commitment.
• Spirit of this sacrifice..
Martyrs to an inspired generation,a sensation to the
awakening society;they have been the most confirming
medicine to the pulse of this rising nation.
• Salute to this spirit of nationalism & integrity which lives
through ages immortalized by their actions..
• Finally,I earnestly call for the awakening of the youth & the
rising of the nation.This awakening has to be an incentive of
the inner-self,the calling of the motherland,an echo of the
legacy of the great Indian ethos & a conscious realization of
One’s real identity.
Then & only then,INDIA SHALL rise like a
PHOENIX from the ASHES.
JAI HIND..
