Population is India's curse...Oh really??!!!!

A thought that always flashes in my mind that could make our population a boon rather than a curse......If every individual of 1.15 billions in India could spend one rupee per month and if we could invest that money GENUINELY for our country's development...just imagine 115 crore rupees every month, nearly 1400 crore rupees every year....we could definitely make far better INDIA in the coming 20 years....May be it's just a drop in the ocean....but as the famous quote says "the ocean would be less without that drop"....
reminds me of the famous LEAD INDIA ad by TIMES GROUP (Tum chalo to Hindustan chale)....

the video is so gripping that we just tend to ignore the magical lyrics...
Falak pakad ke utho, aur hawa pakad ke chalo
Tum chalo, to hindustan chale
Lagao haath ke suraj subah nikala karein, 
Hatheliyon bhare dhoop aur uchhala karein,
Ufaq pe paav rakho, aur chalo akad ke chalo,
Falak pakad ke utho, aur hawa pakad ke chalo,
Tum chalo, to hindustan chale

here is a literal translation of the lyrics....got it from one of the links.... 

Hold the sky to stand, and walk with the wind in your hands,
Be the front-runner; because when you walk, Hindustan (India) walks with you.
Lend your hand to pull out the Sun in the morning,
Fill your hands with sunlight, and throw it around,
Keep you legs on the horizon, and walk with pride,
Hold the sky to stand, and walk with the wind in your hands,
Be the front-runner; because when you walk, Hindustan (India) walks with you.

The code is simple yet carries a very important message -

"Stop Complaining and be the Change"....Let's be the change in one way or the other to embrace our motherland with glory.....
Happy Republic Day folks!!!

There are so many who are willing to spend that one rupee every month sindhu. But the thing is how far one can guarantee that all the money is gona be used for the country. What is happening to all the money that the tax payers are spending? It is all ‘people’s money’ but how far is it being used properly to the society. You make a serious look into it and you will find that it is either going into the corrupted ministers pockets or spent for lay the same road a hundred and one times.....people want to the be the change but a correct platform is not been provided.. that’s the sad part
