SOME anomalies prevalent which ought to be rectified ASAP:

1. An Indian can’t vote in two places.

But if the leader wants he can contest elections from two different places at a time.

2. A common man cannot vote if he’s in jail…

But a politician or leader can contest elections even while in prison.

3. If a common man goes to jail even for a petty offense, he’s banned for his lifetime… no Govt job for him.

But, no matter how many times a leader who commits murder or rape is imprisoned, he can still contest elections and can even become Prime Minister or President of India, or whoever he wants to become.

4. To get a modest job in a bank, a common man must be a graduate.

But although a leader or politician is a thumb impressionist, he can be the Finance Minister of India.

5. You must be within the prescribed age limit to join the army. To get a job as a soldier, you have to run 10 kilometers and earn a degree.

But even if the leader is illiterate, cowardly, and Lula-lame, or 90 years old, even then he could be the Chief of Defense and can command the Army, the Navy, and the Air Force… that is, be a Defence Minister.

Even though his whole family has never been to school for generations, the leader may become the Education Minister of our country.

A leader with thousands of cases going on against him could be the Police Chief, i.e. the Home Minister.

Is a government employee not entitled to a pension even after 30-35 years of satisfactory service?

Where is the justice when an MLA / MP is entitled to pension for just 5 years, that too, of corrupt and unsatisfactory service? He is entitled to draw pension for all the positions he held, like MLC, MLA, and MP in his lifetime besides the freebies that go with them.
