On friday......we (mokshya and I) were discussing a topic about “grooming leaders”.. I argued that if system is corrupt, every thing associated with that system will be corrupt. Thus we need to clean the system so that we can groom a new face to a good leader in a better system. Mokshya’s counter, “bad leaders create a bad system……….. One dead fish can ruin the entire pond……………same with netas…one bad neta that is all we need to destroy any clean system.” Mokshya has a logic, I have to agree…no denial. But she never understood my concept of grooming leaders. Put any new face (cleanest of person) under the supervision of our great leader G.P Koirala…………. everybody knows the result ……… if he can’t be as evil as Mr. koirala he will have no future in Nepali congress. Bas system can groom only a bad leader. This morning I checked the news from Nepal and found out that our king has finally decided to reinstitute the dissolved parliament…….. he is going to bring back same old school type leader to get failed one more time………. I doubt if Girija even has a vision of GDP, economical growth..and bla ..bla…………….why doubt I am 100 % sure he doesn’t……..not only him, 99 % of the Nepali leaders do not a vision. I will not blame them for this coz they were groomed in a system where only 3rd division student gets involved in politics……..a system where politics is believed to be a business………….a person with no skill what so ever in academics are joining politics………….a person with no prior knowledge of defense has been a made a defense minister………and when asked what has been his credibility ………. Answer will be “he has joined politics since 20...” ……..should that count as his credibility to be a defense minister……. That not their fault ……..truth is nobody better is available…………… take an example of tri-chandra college …….. some guy name Kishor Rathod was a FSU president….. his credibility “ gunda”…just wait few years………. He will be made a home minister of Nepal. Definitely not his fault………coz his leaders are pushing him rather than sweeping him out……….. After seeing people like rathod, rup nayaran….yogeshor bhattarai………. Hari acharya………..I am not too optimistic with new faces in politics………. Let me go back to my topic…..GROOMING LEADERS To be a police inspector, section-officer……..minimum education required in bachelor…….then how come there is not minimum education requirement for national leaders. Make it minimum of masters……….. and has to be a good student……… with some vision……….. When I was preparing for an entrance exam for Medical in TU maharajgunj……… 3000 people were fighting for 20 seats……….standard is very high for medical students….coz they are going to be a doctor ………..they are supposed to save people’s life………. Hmmmm……….interesting ……..only right person can be a doctor……..coz we are risking people life…………….come on with politics we are risking people’s future….why is it so easy to be a neta………….seriously , netas should have a good academic standing………and there should be more criteria, but can’t compromise with education ………I have already started sound unrealistic…………..because I know no policy maker likes my idea…….it will like “ afnai khutta ma bancharo hannu”………. But I wish we had a system of GROOMING LEADERS
