Who said they are rulers. They are representative of public, they are trusty. But they are declared them self lord of public. I think no one will join politics to work as sevaks. People joined politics to remit service, not to serve.

Yes that is the case now..there is no patriotism at all, more goondaism, one can see to what level it goes during the election times.Only money and muscle power rules.Thats why Prakash Jha feels that the political class must be made aware of their duties to the nation..

Where we reached now, it is very hard to made aware about duties to politicians. Politicians are addict of power. Without power they will be mad. Here is Rajasthan one former minister is behind bars in famous Bhanwari scandle and his family members are playing important role in deciding future of public.
In a Democracy, politicians and government employees are public servants, who get salaries and perks from public's contribution, therefore it would be appropriate to call them with fitting post names. That will perhaps help bring them to terms and discharge their duties as expected from them. Public is ultimate owner of this country.
Already the politicians and bureaucrats are 'sevaks' (servants). They are public servants. The body selecting the officers for govt. is called 'Uniopn Public service commission'. Even now there is no word that would describe PM or any one else as 'master'. We the public appoint them as 'servants' through election.
What is there in name. They are what they are and will be what they are by any name. Gandhiji changed name of 'Achhuta' to 'Harijan' but this change helped nobody. Only constitutional and administrative measures could.

First of all, movie is pathetic... He just showed Anna movement but he was not able to potray anything at all. And like other people the movie don't come up with solution either.. Although that point of being as our sevak is correct but as mentioned in movie also, there has to be a way in which u get the work done from sevaks also..

True- but the fact is, we select them as 'servants' but they become 'officers' with all the powers in the world on their disposal and they behave like kings.
We elect them as our 'representatives' to look after our interests but they become 'Mahamahims' to look after their own interests with public nowhere in scene.

Sir, 'mahamahim' (His excellency) are only President/ Governor. However President of India has stopped this practice for himself at functions. Not only leaders but public is also to blame for treating them as masters instead of representative or servant. There is lot of personality cult for which our psyche is responsible.
It hardly matters. Even if they are addressed as Sevaks, red lights on their official cars, gleaming bungalows surrounded by lush green lawns, Black cat security guards, and the ever following officers and sychophants at their beck and call will be there. If a Sevak's status is this high, no Pradhan Sevak or Sevaks will mind if they are addressed as "Sevaks."

We are helpless . The quality of slave mentality deeply embedded in us, which we inherited from our erstwhile rulers. We prefer to be treated as slaves to those whom we appointed to act as our custodians.

Supreme court has already come up with an order that red light and siren should not be used by anyone, but I see that noone really follows it...The problem is we people who are door mats and ready to fall at their feet and they wipe their feet on us and move on...

Penality for using red light is not enough to pinch any one. On first offence it is 100Rs and on second it is 300Rs. Who will care for order of court.

These Sevaks made the courts and court orders mere butt of laughter,

The problem lies in undue authority they enjoy as persons dealing with people, they do not consider them as someone who is there to solve problems but enjoy the position. That's what brings them to government jobs and politics.

A real Sevak will never seek power. Whatever the power needed comes from within. That's the power of his strong will to do real Seva. Our pseuodo Sevaks seek power through grabbing other's powers. Where from the power of one Baba Amte, one Sunderlal Bauguna you think comes to do Seva to the destitute and and the down trodden from ?

It can seen how seriously they take the suggestions made by the courts , nt even the highest legal authority , The Supreme Court which was trying to clean up the political system and came down on the criminalisation issue, it has been outright rejected unanimously by all...So what can we expect from this lot of politicians ? nad where was The sincere and honest voice of our PM? did he even show any inclination at all to bring it in? a person who is hailed by some as being very sincere doesnt have the guts to even speak out, so what is he doing up there ? taking the country for a ride ? He has no business sitting there when he is incapable of taking any decisions except cry when he is criticised ...

Crying? No how he can cry without the permission of the chief of the high command ?
