Leave the Best, KILL the rest….

Statuary Warning: This post is not meant for humanitarians or soft hearted people. Kindly don’t proceed reading….

Maybe after reading this post many of you won’t agree with me, but these are my views and I am free to quote them.

Two biggest and toughest hurdles INDIA is facing are population and reservation, and because of these two factors INDIA is still among the list of countries which are developing and not developed. Let us consider the scenario of population first.

How many times have you noticed people lying on the road after being drunk?.. Many a times right! or this is a common scenario. Have you ever noticed what kind of person are they? Yes, they are either beggars or people who earn on daily basis (labors) or the people who don’t work but enjoy on the salary of their wives. What if they are not there…will the balance of human race be affected? NO, it will not. So what is the need of these kinds of creatures being alive, let them be cleaned as you clean cockroaches from your house.
Many a times I have seen women begging on the road with a child in their lap, can’t they work in someone’s house and earn their bread?

Foreigners who visit INDIA generally capture these incidents and show them in their nation. Is this the picture of INDIA we want to depict? Absolutely no, and this is not depicted by us.

Whenever there is a blast, stampede, or any natural calamity the number of persons getting killed usually include such creatures only. The only sorrow which remains in such incident are that some normal or good persons are also killed which should not happen. Normally people like to have more than 2-3 children so that at least one among them become a good citizen..OK agreed, what if one has become an engineer or doctor or something good, rest other should be killed. Pardon me for being harsh!
When you sow seed, you generally sow 2-3 at a time so that at least one of them become a plant, if by chance the other seeds also grow beside it they are plucked off because they are weeds and they hinder the plants growth, the point which I want to make is that identify the weeds and pluck them or else they will keep hindering our growth.

Considering another example, whenever driving on a road which passes through some village or LIG (lower income group) colony, you will encounter many incidents of people changing lane without any indication, they drive rashly compete with others … don’t know what they want to prove? They exchange words (abuses) on trifles, they spit around without watching if there is anyone on the side or coming by. Did you ever notice such incidents on MG Road or road in front of Vidhan Soudha? No, you didn’t because the people traveling on those roads are cultured, they represent human race. One solution is that, eliminate these creatures from INDIA and let the uncommon road also become like MG road. One more common scenario to be seen is that, while standing on signal waiting for the signal light to turn green many people start before the light even turns yellow, and this is generally done by those creatures only. One very practical solution I’ll suggest is that shoot them as soon as they violate the signal rule, after doing this not only we will be reducing the population but also teach the others that what might happen, and this might change those creatures into normal human being.

I know the message I am conveying must not be feasible neither practical but my aim is right only the path is wrong. When Bangalore registered many incidents of dog biting, then the government started catching stray dogs and did vasectomy on them. Salute to the government, but when human race is considered, government hands are tied. Well I won’t discuss on this as this form the part of vote politics.

The message what I want to convey is that everyone is not bad or wrong in those creatures community, and I also agree that due to some reason or circumstances they fall under that category. The point is that those people don’t want to change only, you cannot straighten a dog’s tail but surely you can cut it. There is a poor boy that comes to our apartment to collect old paper and by selling them he manages to pay his fees. There are many others of his age group who actually don’t even want to go to school and create all sort of nuisance on road.

The whole gist is that among that group of poor, uncultured people
Leave the best, KILL the rest….

I agree to the thought that bad and rotten apples should be thrown away as soon as possible.

After reading your post, I have identified two types of rotten apples.
The first type is that of poor and unemployed people.
Another category is of those who violate the rules.

But before you start away throwing rotten apples, you have to ask the following questions.

1) Whom should you clean? Who are the rotten apples?

Just for the sake of our PR image, do you want to eliminate all the people who live under poverty line? Do you think these poor people are the ones who are demoralizing India? Aren't the aristocrates also responsible for tarnishing the image of India? What about the people who bribe, the people who cut trees to make industries, the people who go in private vehicles, who add to traffic and pollution ? What about the rich companies who cross all the moral and legal boundaries just to make profit? Who is the rotten apple?

What is the level of filtering to find out the poor people?
Can you specify the threshold of the income that should be considered to determine the poor?
Say, if you want to kill the dhobi wallah's, the garbage collectors, the street scavengers etc.,
then who will do their job at such a cheap rate? Because anyone who would venture to do their jobs should be immediately killed according to your hypothetical philosophy. Even if you manage to somehow eliminate all the people having the income, say under 1 lakh, then the cut-off for poverty will go up to say, 3 lakhs.
Perhaps some really rich kid is having a similar wild thought, but with a cut off value of, say 10 lakhs, and that ignorant kid thinks that wiping put those will improve the image of his country worlwide. It is also very much possible that some son of a farmer in a remote village is having a whim of killing away all the rich people in the world.

2) When do we stop cleaning? When can we be satisfied that all the pests are removed from society?

Good and bad is always relative. If the so called cockroaches are removed, then amongst the lucky ones who survive, there will always be someone who will be slighly worse than others, some will be slightly better. Even though the demarcation will be thin, it will always be present, because everyone is unique. Laws are made by human, which is also relative. Smoking is banned now, which was not banned earlier. Earlier, sati was legal. Any women who used to go against society was supposed to be ostracized. Now we have made dowry and Sati illegal. So the same acts can be considered legal/illegal at different times.
The recent President of Pakistan was issued fatwa for just flirting with another political figure. Charles Darwin and Coppernicus thesises have been recently accepted by church. Everyday laws are getting changed, modified and new laws come into picture. So, where do we stop, if we start shooting all the law violators, because law keeps changing?

The truth is that there is no end to cleansing. The utopian world is never achievable.

3) Who should clean the society?

I still have no idea who should do this job. The supreme court judges, the CBI, the police force, the MP's, or rather, the UN or USA. Who should be the BIG BOSS?

4) Do you think rotten apples are the same as rotten people?

I think the comparison is not a good one. Rotten apples can never become good, whereas people who are poor and corrupt can become good, if the cause is removed. The cause, in many cases, is lack of food, money, justice, etc. A good person takes the evil path, because of some incidents in his/her life. Lots of people have transformed from the bad to the good. Going very early in our history, take the example of Maharshi Valmiki, who was orginally the robber "Ratnakar". Even Gandhiji was, at a time, addicted to theft, smoking and drugs.

5) The ripple effect of Implementation?
Shoot one guy and you run the risk of an agitation either from his family, community or his state? You will end up creating rebels, terrorists and chaos.

Lastly, as a conclusion, I feel that although India still might be considered a land of snake charmers and slum dwellers, we
are still a balanced economy. The average middle class people have slowly come into a comfortable position in terms of resources. We donot need to think of such wild, stubborn and drastic ideas to improve our conditions.
