Indeed most of Indians are scrupulous. This attitude provide land to develop these type of organizations.
Organizations like sanatan Sanstha have their own patrons and believers. And most of the followers are politicians. That's why these organizations are surviving.

@Kalyani Though every moment my mind is engrossed in my son's thought, you know I deliberately try to keep myself detached and for this I have developed a habit of asking him to do some of his personal work by himself. I know if I help him he will be happy even I will be satisfied that the work was done well but for two reasons I sometimes harshly deny to help him. If I softly ask him to do the work then he will nag me to help so I try to be harsh. One reason is that he needs to become independent and secondly, I need to understand that he will not need me always and so I must not have the feeling of being unwanted. Now, I try to squeeze out time from everything and indulge into writing, reading, experimenting new recipes, chatting with my loved ones, watching a good programme, listen songs or have some rest.

It has been proved once again that regional movies with good content and ground reality are better films, even though they may not entertain as much as the Bollywood movies do.
Entertainment is not only aims of movies. I don't know much about Marathi movies but some Hindi films are not entertaining but they are good movies. If this film won the award it pride for we all Indians.

You are right but, it is not easy in our country. It is all possible only with coalition of bureaucracy and politicians. These are persons who funds of political parties.
I agree. it's not easy to punish the tax evaders because most of the tax evaders are politicians. They maintain benami accounts on fictitious names. And above all politicians can buy the law through their political influence.

There seems to have been a lot of politics involved during the selection process which is probably what happens each time when films are selected to be sent to the Oscar selection committee

I know this case of Chiranjeeve trying to jump the queue during an election. It's really a rarely occurring case. That kind of awareness is very less in people. Later I heard that the people who stopped Chiranjeevi were the TDP sympathizers. But I'm not sure.

Notices remain as notices. Are we such disciplined lot? Flouting the rules is inherent trait in us. Had that discipline is there, we wouldn't have disfigured heritage pilgrimages with all kinds of trash

It is not a valley but a plateau on the mountain top. It is actually a rule in heritage places where they do not allow you to pluck flowers or uproot plants, this is to ensure that the diversity of that place is preserved and the ecosystem is not threatened in any manner.
A few years back we were at Kodai Kanal ,where they have many such spots where wild flowers grow in plenty on the mountain slopes and it is a beautiful sight, some people had thrown a cigarette butt from the top and the dry twigs caught fire and it really spread even as we were watching.But the locals there opened a tap and somehow managed to put it off ! They do have notices asking people not to smoke and throw plastic etc ..

I guess at times people have to seriously consider putting these people in their place and the only chance you get is during elections when they are at their subservient best ready to listen to the voters,I remember a case when the actor politician Chiranjeevi who went to the voting booth with his family and was ready straight away go into the booth but a couple of peole waiting in the Que stopped him and asked him to join the Que .The same thing happened with an actor with political connections here in Karnataka too...They should be put to shame and taught a lesson for life to respect the voters !

That's our inherent trait to please others. Instead, they should devote themselves in raising the Indian movies from mediocrity to higher standards and please our own folks.
But trying for an Oscar, thereby showing the world our own traditions and culture like Lagaan and Mother India. is not bad.
