The Smallest Change!

People are angry and are talking a lot. Rather they are preaching, and that too, to one and all. Politician should do this..., police should do this..., intelligence has failed and should be upgraded....etc. They are talking about big fundamental changes. This requires certain amount of preparation on the part of citizens as well.

The most beautiful thing about change is that it starts with very small steps and after gaining a considerable momentum only, it starts taking big leaps. What we, justifiably angry citizen of India, are forgetting is this basic premise. I know that among the people with high rage i might look like a feeble, weak person. But i want the people to be fully aware of the demands that the new system of response to this terrorist attack would come with.

I would like to suggest some changes that people should bring in themselves to help the system to be geared up to handle any eventuality as well as its general well being.

1. Now that the security apparatus will be strengthened, it'll demand people of greater patience, while they would be made to wait longer in the queues. So people should be more accomodative of the ensuing changes.

2. Some policeman's martyrdom should not be necessary to generate faith in the police system and respect towards the police personals. Their work is tedious and always attract wrath of people. So, lets start giving them their due respect.

3. Learn from the NSG commando's spirit of 'Doing our duty'. Pay your taxes in time and in accordance with the law, so that Government 'll have greater resources at its disposal to upgrade our security apparatus.

4. The recent election turn out has indicated that people of India are awakening and participating with unprecedented vigour in the democratic process of the country. We should pledge to carry on the momentum to its logical conclusion in the forthcoming parliamentary election and lets give ourselves an able and strong Government, which could stand in the face of rising terror activities and take India to its rightful place in world.

This is the least we can do to strengthen the hands of Government in our pursuit of a better and safer India.
