We all agree that we have a modernizing government that is beset by a crude
political class, a malignant bureaucracy and a pre-modern citizenry. As such,
even though the government pursues enlightened policies, the ship of state
seems to be caught on the rocks of casteism, communalism and corruption.
Bureaucrats blame crass politicians and the ignorant citizenry. Politicians
castigate the bureaucracy. Citizens berate politicians and bureaucrats. It’s a
sort of beggar-thy-neighbor view that enables the entire system to elude
responsibility. If everyone’s to blame, then nobody is accountable.
This is the challenge for India that the world deems as an up and coming power.
