As a voter, what do I expect to my lawmakers?

Today, I feel shaken on a simple but deep question asked by my friend on previous evening tea. - “As a voter, what do I expect to my lawmakers?”

Brainstorming started-
Is it eradication of poverty? No.. No .. In our welfare state, this may be an attractive party line to attract the innocent voters, but I consider that this is the prime goal of any government in my welfare state India. Now-a-days we are not in that bad condition as we were in those immediate post independence days. Though there exist not-suitable-employment for majority, yet there is employment to earn bread and butter. And I do agree that the process is still going on for the doers. I am though not wholly yet quite satisfied with this performance. As I know poverty is a relative term it do vary from nation to nation, from period to period, so eradication of poverty is not in my contention of my expectation to my lawmakers. This is a routine process these days for sustainability of any government.

Likewise the Growth, the growth process now a days complement to eradication of poverty. Again not an issue in my contention for expectation to law makers. They are there to do this.

  • I think we are just growing and we are not developing.
  • What does the GDP mean to me, if my government cannot provide me a crime free, transparent, female friendly and pollution free atmosphere in my day-to-day life.
  • I am really not happy with the insensitivity of the government towards any burning social issue.
  • I expect my government to be proactive towards any existing or popping up social issue. And I don’t want that government be active only after outrage of mass, provocation by media.
  • I want rapid justice for every ordinary case and not only for rarest of rare cases.
  • I don’t want that sensitive bills be not laid by the insensitive government on table of parliament in the wake of bad politics.
  • I want my government to be diligent and efficient and effective, and without the fear of losing its power for a good cause . I wasn't a government who prefers nation more than its own sustainability.
  • I want a government which can use plebiscite option in sensitive issues.

Oops! I think its unending topic.

In short, I may conclude that growth with justice would be my only expectation from my government.


I will continue to write on it….
