The Collapse of the System


In my speech at Berkeley, California on 19.3.2015 ( see  ' Justice Katju Berkeley )  I had said that the next 15-20 years in India are going to be very turbulent, and will only end when a just social order emerges.

 Today the truth is that the system of government created by the Indian Constitution on 26th January, 1950 has collapsed. All the state institutions set up by the Constitution have become hollow. Our politicians, a large proportion of whom have criminal backgrounds, are a bunch of rogues and rascals who have no genuine love for the country, and have looted it. Most of them should have been hanged from the nearest lamp post long ago, as indeed I observed orally in the Supreme Court once.

 The Indian judiciary, which often takes decades to finally dispose off a case has largely become a caricature and a mockery. What kind of a judiciary is it which takes so long to decide a case ? Also, a large section of it has become corrupt. No wonder people have started resorting to illegal methods by hiring goondas to evict tenants, realize debts, etc.

  The bureaucracy in India has largely become corrupt, with the result that even schemes which appeared good on paper ( like the MNREGA ) have become sources of corruption in reality.

 The Aam Admi Party came forward presenting an alternative to the prevalent politics with its slogans of transparency, accountability, and inner party democracy. All those slogans have turned out to be hollow. The truth is that the moment a group of people form a political party and enter into electoral politics in India they become corrupt, because a huge amount of money is required to run an organization, fund the elections, etc and lumpen elements ( goondas ) are required to maintain control over dissidents and other opponents ( like Hitler's S.S.).

 The truth is that the Constitution of India, and the system and state organs it created have exhausted themselves. What is the alternative for the Indian people now ? I do not know. The people of India have to use their own creativity and find out the solution. Whatever that solution may be, this can be said for certain : there will be a prolonged period of turmoil and turbulence in India, and this will not end till a just social order is created in which the Indian masses have decent lives.

  1. I have the answer..India is not fit for democracy. 120 crore population cannot be run via democracy. In democracy like Europe, people voice are heard. It cannot be here.

    Best is all states in India should get autonomy means each state will have its Premier/Chief Minister or PM who would run a state with only defense common to all state. There is no other solution than this. Some states will become backward, some prosper but here the whole country is super poor.

  2. Do we really need to be so gloomy about our future? Can't we have a beacon of hope in succeeding generation? No doubt there are disturbing facts about our country and it is equally important to probe them but such things have always been there. Some of the socio-cultural and political institutions do need some sort of rectification and reconsideration to imbibe the pluralism--the ingrained feature of this country.
    If we can be able to indoctrinate the value of democratic commitment in the minds of younger children through the medium of education in true sense, I think we have enough reasons to be optimistic about our NATION.

  4. The problem lies mostly in the present form of electoral system. Powerful people with money / muscle power getting elected by getting party tickets at last movements and public don't have much choice. Genuine persons who have some interest in social work can't get a party tickets.

    May be a constitutional change on Indian political party system would bring a change to bring sincere people in to the political system. There has to be a cadre based party system and run like companies from the subscriptions from their members. The full time party workers shall be elected by the members and paid a decent salary to run their families even if they loose elections and work as watch dog of his ward/constituency for the welfare of the people. As these party workers are working with local people all days, there is no need of last minute very high cost of election campaigns by unknown people. It would create an environment that good people come in to system as they would get remuneration to run their families even if they loose elections. The elected person would work from ruling party for the welfare of their constituencies and the loser would also continue to work as a watch-dog in implementing government projects and also assist addressing in local people issues. Over a period it would lead to a two party system, with those who are really working at field level. Probably EC shall act as a Regulatory Authority such as IRDA, DGCA, RBI, etc.

  6. Sir, we have the theory of basic features of constitution. Democracy is good.only accountability is to increase. More education is required.

  7. Sir,the members of legislative bodies have deep social connections.laws are made after due deliberations. Most of laws are made in view of the need of society. Though improvement in the system is necessary.

  8. A former Pakistani dictator once made this statement: "Democracy is a luxury for countries like India and Pakistan". If you think about it with an open mind, you would realize that he was right.

    Democracy as it is adopted in India is based on the adult franchise concept. All adults have equal voting rights regardless of their mental capacities and reasoning abilities. The majority of people in India are the illiterate, underprivileged and exploited poor. What they have is the voting right. But do they have the ability to use that power properly to elect a representative who has character and who has the competence to lead the country for good? Perhaps not.
    And so long as they do not have that ability, they would be hoodwinked by the clever leaders with no character. And they cannot escape that fate in the near future.

    But yes, as the peoples' abilities would improve slowly by the slow process of societal changes, civilization, culture, health and education, the situation would change. But it would not be immediate. It could take many generations.

    All those so-called developed nations that we see today have gone through much severe problems in the past. The well to do Indians can only dream to make things happen faster. But their hope would not come true immediately under the present democratic system.

    Can you expect a bullock cart driver to pilot an aircraft by promoting him to that post one day and delegating him all the powers?

  9. What is more important is overall development of the country providing Basic needs, Education, Health and Better public transportation accessible to all indians.
    People who create hurdles for those should be fixed whether they are politicians, the executive/civil servants or so called social activists.This country is run by good faith not by law enforcement. Once Contempt of courts is diluted all flaws in judiciary would be taken care. Our democratic systm is still evolving, may be it has completed one full cycle. First, the executive became corrupt, then politicians became corrupt, then media became corrupt, now judicial integrity is in serious debate (I am afraid of writing in certain words as not to contempt of court) Hope this contempt of courts act is scrapped for the good of this country.
