Mediocrity Zindabad

While our corporatized media, politicians, educationists, bureaucrats and businessmen illustrate the sheer dominance of all-round MEDIOCRITY everywhere, they keep on making the noises about India shining. While millions of Indians are dying of hunger and poverty, some ending their lives in sheer desperation, these noise-makers make the entire world believe that ALL IS WELL and that India is the best possible destination for foreign investors and charitably inclined donors. They know very well that whatever noises are made about corruption,they will die out soon. Under such a dispensation of fixedness, what role is left for excellence to thrive ? Corruption will continue to be seen as an essential and inevitable concomitant and price of progress.How could Commonwealth Games have been organized on such a lavish scale unless the organizers had plenty of motivation to make crores on the sideline? It's not only cricket matches that are fixed. Everything is fixed from the appointment of Prime Minister to the appointment of Ministers like Radia's A.Raja.It is fixed which political dynasty will rule India and for how many years. Under such a dispensation how can excellence thrive or even survive when mediocrity is the absolute ruler? Intellectual and moral excellence have no place in an India where mediocrity is worshipped. Sycophancy breeds mediocrity and it is what determines what plum posts you get.Every five years or even before, the people of India are befooled by the enactment of the great circus called'Elections' which are meant only for the benefit of crooks and scamsters.Decent, noble and intelligent people have no place in this circus of buffoons. What should be done?
