Kejriwal Speaks on Parliament
Arvind Kejriwal is absolutely correct in saying that one third of Members of Parliament are from criminal background and same is the position of members of state legislative assemblies. In our country on who can speak better, one who can deliver good speech , one who can spend crores of rupees to contest an election and one who can do all possible evil works for getting powerful post in politics can only win the election. It is greatest tragedy of the country that there is no minimum qualification for an individual to contest an election.
Government needs qualified IAS and IPS officers to manage a district, need qualified BDOs and COs to manage a village or panchayat, need MBA to run a company or at least a graduate to become a simple clerk in a government office but there is no need of any qualification for a person to become MP or MLA .Unqualified and inexperienced politicians are managing IAS , IPS , Engineers, Doctors , qualified judges, Advocates ,Chartered Accountants and all educated and talented persons and professionals.Police verification is needed for recruitment of a clerk or an office in government offices but there is no need of the same for a person contesting an election.Even for a domestic servant ,it is suggested by government to inform his complete biodata to police station . Unfortunately persons accused of rape or loot or fraud or anti national activities are not prevented contesting an election.
I therefore concur with Arvind Kejriwal that India needs to reform Parliamentary system and it should be treated as positive criticism instead of treating his comment as attack on democracy or on Parliament. Here I do not mean to say that all educated persons are honest and true performers or vice versa but what I mean to focus that there must be adequate skills in politicians so that they can better manage talented group of IAS, IPS, Engineers, CAs, Advocates etc and help in promoting healthy culture in not only in administration and politics but also in judiciary.Unskilled persons managing skilled persons create frustration , depression and flattery culture , there is no doubt in it and out country is victim of such fallacies and deficiencies
