DREAM CABINET FOR GOOD GOVERNANCE,LOKPAL-A FUTILE PROCESS

In Cricket, we often hear about a Dream Indian Team of the decade or century. Similarly, we should dream about a fleet of "Honest" "Qualified" People to be part of Dream Cabinet to ensure Clean & Corruption free professional governance to the INDIAN republic where there is no place for "Manmohan theory" of Coalition politics  or dharma.

Sometimes, avant-garde or  maybe strange kind of thought sparkles: Why not "Constitution" is  amended to adopt a system,wherein key Clout or Govermental political positions like PM, Home Minister, Finance Minister, Defence Minister are directly elected( rather selected) by Direct voting of People alike Presidential system of USA, irrespective of Party politics or number of Elected representative of any Party ( Majority or minority) in Parliament. Election funding for such directly Electable Goverment functionary could be through Election Commission of India to avoid any "monetary influence"over public.

In present Scenario too, one may visualize Dream Cabinet comprising of Qualified & Honest leaders,having Developmental agenda in their mind.

Perhaps, Nitish Kumar (an Engineer), Dr Raman Singh ( CM of Chattisgarh), Narendra Modi ( MA in Political science), Navin Patnayak ( Graduate of St Stephen's,New Delhi), Ashok Chavhan ( CM of Maharashtra- An Engineer), Shivraj Singh Chouhan ( MA -Gold Medalist,CM of MP), Manishanker Aiyer ( Sr Cambridge Topper in BA (Hons) & former IAS), P. Chidambaram ( Masters in Business Administration from Howard), A.K.Antony ( Extremely Honest politician with BA,BL qualification), Chandrababu Naidu ( Masters in Economics & Creator of Cyberabad), Sitaram Yetchury ( MA Economics,Author of number of books) etc etc. may be in our Dream Cabinet.

Instead of formulating number of Toothless "Laws" like Lokpal, it is imerative to bring in major Constitutional changes by civil movement in the country. CVC act, Lokayukta in States failed to carry on their duty as efficiently as it was perceived to be during enactment of such acts. Anna's movement is not likely to yield any Striking changes in the "Lokpal",whatever may be provisions made in the Bill to fight corruption. As recently, it was remarked categorically that LOKPAL bill has to be passed by Parliament & who are there in Parliament, the same "Political" class or fraternity who would never allow it to be so burly to challenge "supremacy" of Political authority.

LOKPAL is alike PART 2 of CVC act. Anna should not squander his energy for LOKPAL till civil society or a Movement of masses work for a revolution in change of elegibility criteria for our Elected representatives in Assembly or Parliament.
