Root cause of Indian systemic-rot - Abysmal leadership quality

Original article at->   Know the root cause of all problems in India-lets facilitate quality leadership everywhere and solutions will follow

Crime or criminality is not a monopoly of any class or  gender, nor does crime have a class or gender factor. This is true for goodness or badness too.

The current problem in India is that, since judiciary , law enforcement and the the whole system consisting of the government/authorities in general are all corrupt and our quality of leadership is abysmal.

Hence the Corrupt, Rich and powerful get what they want by hook(undue favours from government schemes meant for public welfare!) or crook(protective provisions/laws intended for protecting the weak(if you search around the internet you will find that the protective provisions for SC/STs , Women have been misused widely and has been acknowledged in the official circles too, for example misuse of dowry laws are termed as "Legal Terrorism" by the Supreme Court of India itself!) and poor are misused by the corrupt, rich and powerful people)

And its a fact that unfettered/absolute power corrupts, and in India women-protection laws give that unfettered power to only the women who misuses it(with an intention to get undue power of negotiation, to wreck vengeance, etc.,.)

***So the genuine victims among men or women do not have any support from the present set of laws or provisions/schemes by the government***, since all these facilities and laws are misused with oblique motives by the corrupt, rich and powerful(irrespective of their gender!)!!!.

The solution is simple(albeit tough), all citizens(including all victimised men and women) join forces and bring a new order in society and make a system which only promotes good leaders and eventually purge the bad leaders. 

These good leaders will eventually set right the implementation of laws and schemes intended for public welfare(which are presently misused) and ensure that the support/relief goes only to the intended and deserving victims/beneficiaries, since they would be responsive to the people who elected them and be efficient and capable to undertake the massive systemic correction we would have to do, to set right and prevent the re-emergence of the systemic-rot, that we are in presently.

It is with this Idea that the Great India group was formed(Facebook group for Great India: http://groups.to/gi) .

Together we can do whatever we intend to do, to bring about the changes we want around us.

Let us be the part of the solution, and not part of the problem(by just cribbing/complaining about what we do not like around us), lets be the change-agents ourselves, because we can do this together.... the road ahead is tough but NOT AT ALL IMPOSSIBLE to traverse, can we do it, if we are united..... do join us and contribute your efforts along with us, see you at Great India facebook group: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=117237851655573 or short url http://groups.to/gi .

**************************
PS: And hence the sham called "Irretrievable Break Down of Marriage" a proposed/pushed/manufactured new, 'sham' ground for divorce, tailor-made for Ms.S Shinde was unleashed on the unsuspectingly rejoicing Indian public!!!. Their majority voice sounded like "Finally no delay in cases fit for Mutual consented divorce".... but the unheard private mind-voices of V Moily and Ms.S Shinde sounded something like "Yeah Right!!! .... you ignoramuses don't know how to 'Bend it like Shinde' "

Promotion: New Hindi novel "DMCB".... story of a man accused of murdering his wife

We have a new Hindi novel and author for our cause, "Dhara me chippa bhanwar - Whirlpool hidden in the stream"(DMCB) by Mr.Ashesh Sharma of Jaipur. To see reviews, summary and other details of this novel, please join the facebook fan-page ofDMCB: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Dhara-Me-Chhipa-Bhanwar/116566368399355(we already have about 800 pans for DMCB's facebook page, so join in and promote it in your networks too). 

This novel is about a man accused of murdering his wife, and how he finally gets a deserving audience to tell his side... and how he amazes and finally conquers the minds of even his so-called adversaries, including the entire law enforcing/judicial system which were at cross with him and was gunning for his blood, right from the word go!!!)

If anyone wants to order a copy of DMCB, please write to ashesh.sharma@ymail.com(ashesh.sharma (at) ymail (dot) com) , the author directly


This book is yet to be officially launched but we already have a big pre-publication order backlog, due to the novelty in story line "Man's journey to explain his side, while state-sponsored oppression tries to pin him down for the alleged crime of murdering his wife". 


English translation of this novel is in the pipe-line too, so is the plans of making a full-length feature film.


Please do forward this email to all your concerned contacts, for awareness and success of this novel, which is among the first such literary efforts from a SIF group member. 

It may be of interest to note that social conditioning/public opinion and thence introduction of all those women-protection  laws(which we are fighting against currently) where a result of many such literary works(a literary wave during 1970's and 80's, as explained in Vijay Dwivedi's (http://ramrajenv.org) PIL(2007) draft) which spread a wrong notion that India as a country is a "wife-killing, wife-beating" society and hence strict laws(read draconic) are needed to curb this trend... now we need to reverse this trend, by encouraging more and more writers, more and more films which spread the truth, and right message, like DMCB is trying to do. 

Another novel in this direction is "Kavalu - the deviation", a Novel in Kannada(http://www.facebook.com/pages/KavaluDeviation/125266624186527), please do promote this facebook page too.

The cruelty of women who use children as weapons in divorce - Daily Mail, UK


The cruelty of women who use children as weapons in divorce

Distraught: Many divorced fathers describe the loss of their children as 'an emotional amputation' or 'a living bereavement'
Distraught: Many divorced fathers describe the loss of their children as 'an emotional amputation' or 'a living bereavement'
About ten years ago, I was standing in my son's junior school classroom. The teacher had stuck up on the wall the best essays on the topic: 'How I Spent Last Weekend.' One caught my attention. 

Not for this little boy a visit to the zoo or the excitement of a football game. Instead, he had chronicled a weekend's battle between his divorcing parents.

'Mum calls dad names on the phone,' he had written in his laborious handwriting. 'We had cake for tea. My sister and I cry.' The teacher caught my eye. She had put up that story on purpose. 
'I want the parents to see what divorce they are doing to their children. They should be ashamed of themselves,' she said. 
My son recently bumped into that little boy. A decade on, he is 18, has dropped out of school and is on drugs. 
Sir Nicholas Wall, the President of the Family Division of the High Court, agrees that something has to be done. He has accused separating couples, especially those from the middle classes, of using their children as 'both the battlefield and the ammunition' to try to score points in their personal disputes. 
'There is nothing worse, for most children, than for their parents to denigrate each other,' said the country's most senior family court judge. 'The child's sense of self-worth can be irredeemably damaged.' 
Six years ago, my husband and I divorced. It came as a great shock. But we were all too aware our children were just becoming adolescents - and that adolescence is perilous enough without warring parents. 
We tried, not always successfully on my part, never to criticise each other in front of the children. Very occasionally, I even managed to emphasise his good points (of which there are many) - it was quite hard when at the time all I wanted to do was murder him. 
A female friend was shocked. 'Why aren't you using the children against him?' she asked. 'I would.' 
 


Her reaction is not unusual. The battlefields Sir Nicholas Wall describes are too often of the wife's choosing. This is because most divorces are initiated by women due to their husband's infidelity, as the fatherhood research body Fathers Direct points out.

These women are hurt and they want to get their own back through the children, money or both. They are determined the husband is as much divorced from his children as his wife. 
One wealthy man I know finds himself, despite his riches, at the beck and call of his former wife. 
'How can my wife hurt me? How could she bring me to my knees?' he asks. 'Through my children.' 
The strategy is very successful. This otherwise powerful man submits to every capricious demand.
'With just two hours' notice, I had to cancel an important meeting and take them to the dentist,' he said. If he refused, his wife said, he would not see them for a month. 
An advertising director found himself equally powerless when his wife suddenly moved from London to the Midlands with their two sons. 
'How can my wife hurt me? How could she bring me to my knees?' he asks. 'Through my children.'
'She did not tell me. One day she just stopped answering the phone. Until then I had been seeing my sons every weekend,' he says. 
By the time the case reached court, the sons were settled in a new school. The judge admitted that what the woman had done was illegal, but because it was in the best interests of the children to be with their mother, he did nothing. 
'She had got away with effectively kidnapping my children,' said the father. His relationship with his sons has all but broken down. Their new home is too far for them to come to London. When he goes to see them, he has to stay in a hotel.
'The children get bored in an hour or two,' he says. 'They have their friends and their sports, which they would rather do instead.' 
He tells me he finds the situation 'so goddamn painful. I try to play the role of a father - but how can I when I have been deliberately moved to the periphery of their lives?' 
The situation leaves many men I have interviewed distraught. They describe the loss of their children as 'an emotional amputation' or 'a living bereavement'. 
It is no wonder that within two years of divorce, half of fathers lose contact with their children.
Irredeemably damaged: Children are often forgotten victims in divorce, but there can be dire consequences should their parents split up
Irredeemably damaged: Children are often forgotten victims in divorce, but there can be dire consequences should their parents split up
As one man said sadly, divorce 'leaves many fathers on the edge of a bloody great abyss. Many fall off and are never seen again'.
Douglas Alexiou, one of London's pre-eminent family lawyers, agrees that the wife holds all the cards in a divorce case. 
'Court order after court order is served. The wife claims the children are ill or just do not want to see their father,' he says.
'There is very little a court can do if a mother has poisoned the minds of her children against the father. There is no sanction against the mother apart from a jail term - and no court will do that. 
'Perhaps one day a judge will be bold enough to jail a mother and finally set an example.'  
In all this there is only one real victim - the children. If one of those wives was handed an axe and ordered to hack off a limb of her child, she would be appalled. Yet so many women are happy, even gleeful, to commit the equivalent emotional amputation on their children by depriving them of their father. 
U.S. author Kathleen Parker in her excellent book Save The Males points out that in depriving a child of their father, 'we reduce a child's chance of a successful and happy life. 
'Growing up without a father is the most reliable indicator of poverty and all the familiar social pathologies affecting children, including drug abuse, truancy, delinquency and sexual promiscuity.'
But this misery is not only the fault of the parents. The family court system is adversarial and encourages couples to fight, says Nadine O'Connor, campaign manager at the lobby group Fathers4Justice. 
And change, she says, will be a long time in coming - until lawyers stop making their own killing from warring parents, children will continue to be used as weapons.

National Litigant Bench(NLB) launch: Press release, August 15, 2010

Press Release
Sub: AlMWA attending 3rd National Conference of Family Rights Organizations
in Yercaud & Launching NATIONAL LITIGANT BENCH (NLB) on 15 Aug 2010.

All India Men’s Welfare Association (AIMWA) is an organization whose main objectives are:
  • To connect with men and boys across India and understand their needs and concerns.
  • To address issues concerning men and boys, with the specific objective of providing them protection against gender discrimination, domestic violence, emotional castration, negative stereotyping, sexual harassment, legal terrorism and every other form of abuse.
  • To build a powerful broad based lobby for the welfare of men and boys.
Since its inception on 11 October 2009, AIMWA has been working towards providing protection for men and boys against gender discrimination, domestic violence, sexual harassment and other forms of abuse. The organization has also been working on related issues like physical and mental health of men, and the need for social changes, policy reforms and legal solutions to men’s problems.
Members of AIMWA are attending the 3rd National Conference of Family Rights Organizations in Yercaud to present our research and analysis on issues related to men within and outside the family, to discuss our ongoing work, and to point out future directions for NGOs working in the areas of men’s health and welfare.
On the occasion of Independence Day 2010, members of AIMWA are launching the NATIONAL LITIGANT BENCH – a self-help group comprising citizens fighting for freedom from delays, corruption, maladministration, injustice and lack of accountability in the Indian judicial system.
Although India attained freedom from British rule in 1947, the Indian judicial system wreaks of imperialism, corruption and anti-citizen attitudes of the British times, due to which a common man considers entering an Indian court as the worst misfortune of his life.
While the worst sufferers of the Indian judicial system are men, judicial delays, corruption and maladministration have also taken a big toll on women, children and families.
During its many encounters with litigants all over the country, AIMWA found that citizens of India have lost faith in our dysfunctional judicial system as it encourages hardened criminals to commit crime in broad daylight, penalizes law-abiding citizens, and turns ordinary men into criminals.
The National Litigant Bench (NLB) is the first forum of its kind calling for litigants across the country to come together and collectively fight for freedom from judicial delays, corruption, maladministration, injustice and lack of accountability.
On the occasion of Independence Day 2010, we are launching three All India Helplines: 9704683163, 9840324551 and 9620439797. We will introduce more helplines and local chapters in the near future.
We invite all citizens who share our vision of a corruption-free, people friendly, accountable, speedy justice system to join us in our efforts.
