Hello All, It was nice to read all the emails. Very interesting and informative, but one point I felt is common in everyones thought. There are problems in Bihar and everyone has accepted this and given several explanation as what and who could take steps to make life better in Bihar.
Its very easy to talk about and blame others fault. Before blaming someone we should take a step backward and see what each of us has done for Bihar. I am assuming everyone in this mailing list is somehow related to Bihar and are educated. Forget about the ministers and other businessmen , ask yourself as what have you done to help Bihar? I also came across the word MINDSET. The same solution. Ask yourself "What have you done for Bihar?" The problem lies in each individual and not in Ministers and gangsters. Corruption starts from the highest authorities and runs through the lowest authorities. And every individual in these posts are not always big ministers, but people like us. Dont blame others for giving and taking bribes. The power of improvement lies withing ourself. We can make the changes. Dont expect the change to happen drastically and dont wait for any big ministers to take the initiative. Believe in urself and take the initiative. Join the NGO and adopt a child for his/her education. Its very simple thing to do but very effective. There are several ideas like that , which will help improve Bihar conditions and needs less time of yours. So do not just talk and blame others, get involved in improvement activities. And stop asking the questions "How to develop Bihar" Ask the question "How can I help Bihar?"
