Yes, it’s all changing, post-08 November. India is suddenly an honest country (or, perhaps it always was?) Children seem to be loving going to school, adults to office, and Netas to the Parliament with an honest intent to serve people. Ministers are brushing their Smriti and giving up ministerial berths, since they know that running a country is not the same as a running TV serial over a cuppa tea. Ministers have started to go to municipal hospitals for treatment, while their children are being admitted in municipal schools and share a clean and hygienic mid-day meal. Indians are immigrating back to India (!), thus supporting their country from within. In fact, everyone Sarkari has made their pre-and-post-election earnings public: the sentry, opposition, Mantri and Pradhan Mantri. They have given up subsidies, lavish ministerial houses and 100-car-cavalcades as well as Z+ security. Mining barons and transport ministers wed their children with a modest spend of 2.5 lakh rupees. Roads are becoming well-paved, traffic rules are being obeyed and justice is being meted out fast-track. 80+ deaths are minor inconveniences. Merit is taking precedence over "credit". Isn't this change? Of course, when a commoner like me is within close-firing range. Strange.
