The present all-round chaos in the country is the result of the misrule by the 15% population. This 15% deadly dominate the economic, social and political spheres. 15% people are the Brahmins, the Vysya’s, Kshatriyas and a dominant minority section coming from the Shudra castes.
The political representatives of the oppressed and exploited people forming the majority, are stooging for the ruling alliance. Otherwise, how the 34-year “Independence”‘ rule could have made the poor the poorer and the rich, the richer?
The political parties and the various other related organisations broadly represent the interests of the capitalists, the feudal lords, the big business and the big contractors. On this basis, the political parties and the other related organizations can be broadly divided into two groups. As a result, the power struggle is primarily between two exploitative groups. These groups, in other words, can be called as exploitative castes and classes. One is in power and the other is in the Opposition conglomeration. By playing upon the ever-deepening economic and social contradictions the group in the Opposition-conglomeration struggles to replace the prevailing ruling group by fooling the hopeless and helpless masses. The masses, disenchanted with the prevailing ruling group for non-delivery of goods and services will, due to lack of the third alter- native, vote the other group (in the Opposition conglomeration) to power. Thus, the present group in the Opposition will become the ruling group. Then the same old story will be repeated-all sorts of excuses, old and new, will be listed for non-delivery of goods and services to the exploited society. Therefore, it has become a case of change of positions of the exploitative groups and parties on turn-basis. This appears to be an endless process. The current struggle is essentially a power struggle between the two exploitative groups and parties. The mass of the people is constantly oscillated between the devil and the deep sea. Sometimes the masses think that the devil (Opposition group) is preferable to the deep sea (ruling group) and when the hopeless and helpless masses find the ruling group not delivering the goods, they are forced to vote the devil (Opposition- conglomeration) to power. This way, the masses have been caught in a seemingly endless vicious circle. In this context, the relevant question is: which is the potential force that can organize and lead the hopeless and helpless masses to achieve emancipation? According to my view. the newly emerged educated class from among the most oppressed castes and classes, is the only potential force that can take Ambedkar’s mission to i’s logical end. that is, the liberation of all the oppressed and exploited people from slavery and serfdom, But, has the new elitist class, the beneficiary of the Ambedkar’s struggle awakened itself to its historic duty towards its oppressed and exploited brethren?
The country has to inevitably traverse from chaos to creation of a new social order so as to achieve the objective of rendering all-round justice to the mass of the people constituting 80% of the total population. The need of the hour is people’s struggle for their own emancipation. Otherwise, India will continue to be the biggest slum in the world
