came too early... we needed him now"

The
fundamental ideology of Gandhiji related
to economics and education and the
creation of an egalitarian society where
everybody is a creator of goods or ideas
which are used by all.

"Partition
was the darkest phase of the
century"
talk with Isidore
Domnick Mendis
Indias
tragedy is that today it lacks stalwarts
like Nehru, Sardar Patel, G.B. Pant and
Sarojini Naidu. All these doyens of the
post-Independent era have today been
replaced by manipulative politicians
whose sole aim is to promote their
personal interests.

"There
is complete leadership vacuum"
talk with Saikat
Neogi
...today
there are no leaders of stature to look
up to. India is bereft of idols. There
are thousands of politicians but no
inspirational leader who can galvanise
the masses positively. India has lost its
vision.

"Erosion
of law & order has affected
society"
talk with Isidore
Domnick Mendis
After
Partition the police service began
deteriorating. Today it has come to such
a pass that the common man perceives the
force as corrupt, cruel and callous.
