In the wake of Modi's Utterance Unmasking Democracy,Governance and Development

Abstract

Human histories are filled with diverse contours. Even now some of the cruel and ruthless governance surface and prevail as against the will of the people. We see some shades of these in different parts of the world. In all these regimes the citizens have been treated as objects of their benevolence and dictates. Those who governed and governing have failed to recognize that the power of the people keep assuming that they are not the subjects and makers of history and their destiny, but their objects of charity. Through different forms and modus operandi, the anti-people regimes/governments changed. The will of the people has also prevailed supreme and absolute. The Lok Sabha 2014 shall certainly show to those who consider the masses as mere vote banks and sheer objects of benevolence.
