Today morning when I was casually moving through television channels, a story was attracted me and made me view it completely. Generally I never view a programme completely.
During Nizam's era a great philanthropist and arya samaj activist ( I do not remember the name but I will surely update in future) built a gurukul (a residential school which educates poor people). He used to go to the villages and ask the poor people to give their children to him so that he would educate them and make good citizens. He devoted all his life devoted to social service. He got 625 acres of land as a dowry offer by his father-in-law. But he refused the dowry but still this father-in-law registered the land on the name of Gurukul Trust he was running. Now the land alone is worth Rs 6000 Crores. But the descendants of the saintly man are in poverty stricken. The trusty members and politicians are openly selling and encroaching these lands. The fore runner is Mr YS Vivekananada Reddy with his sprawling building in the encroached land with all documents like power connection, water connection in tact with older dates backed to 6-7 years where the Google earth is telling that there was no building constructed 2 years earlier.
It is very disturbing to see that the land belonged to a great unselfish soul and meant for a great cause is now in the hands of hooligans. It seems that the middles ages with a lot of blood and sin were much more better than the days which we are witnessing now. It is astounding to see that these people so openly take the share of the kill with no shame. Instead of feeling guilt they are feeling proud!
I am more concerned on the fact that they have taken the people for granted. They never care about what people think about them. They know pretty well that on the election day the people again vote them. If not in this election, they will definitely vote them in the coming election. (The people would have been vexed up by their counter parts by that time). We can not expect a different result when the people are casting their votes by taking 500 notes and whisky bottles. The people who do not want these things are not voting at all. If the voting is done in selfless manner, we can expect leaders of quality. Till then...
