wake up........who?

At the stroke of midnight when the whole world sleeps, India will wake up…
Will wake up to corruption, failure of political systems, poverty and unemployment?
Will wake up to scams, scams of the order of few thousand crores and to deaths of farmers?
Will wake up to sound of guns blazing the streets of Mumbai, parliament being attacked, policemen being killed, schools blown away and aam aadmi being the soft target of terrorism?

I have seen India waking up to smoking bans, and the next day those bans mocked when we see policemen smoking on the streets. I have read about rapes and female fetus mortality rate go up than the inflation. I have seen criminals filing election nominations and even winning them.

At the stroke of midnight when the world sleeps, India will wake up to fevers of losing in cricket world cup but being smiling on losing in the Olympics. I have seen people dying of hunger and ministers spending crores to build a statue of theirs in parks. I have seen it all!

I know a lot will raise a finger on me as to what have I done, but before doing that ask yourself…have you played a part in waking up the biggest democracy of the world!
It’s time for us to wake up! It’s time for the Indians to wake up to the stroke of midnight!
