Crisis of confidence/ trust:

Mahatma Gandhi was the best and perfect political leader India, maybe the world ever had in recent history.

Jawaharlal Nehru could absorb many of his ideals with a modern, socialistic vision that suited our large sections of poor and downtrodden.
/1
It is not that we do not have people with such high qualities now. We are obstructing them to become one in our political arena due to our crab mentality with a negative, selfish bent of mind characterized by not allowing others to get ahead of or do better than oneself.
/2
We should not live in Utopia and expect perfection in everyone, every politician and every institution.

People do make errors, misjudge or maybe they are ill-advised on issues.

It should be treated as part of business risk if there is no ulterior motive behind such errors.
/3
The fault-finding mission should be issue-based, not personality-based unless they are repeated or habitual.

We are against sins, not sinners.

Efforts should be directed towards finding facts and not nitpicking which hurts self-confidence and creates distrust among people.
/4
One of the important missions for the development of a nation is to allow, encourage growth of confidence of people and leaders in all sections of society including politics.

Instead, the atmosphere deteriorated and degenerated leading to lack of trust in leaders and people.

Sermonising about facts and truth; advising not to spread lies, half-truths and untruths is not an attractive proposition as the practical world is not interested.

But this is the only and best possible approach one can adopt for finding solutions for the problems of people.
/1
In fact, the absence of problem-solving mechanisms or its dysfunctioning and inadequacy is main cause for continued existence and proliferation of unsolved issues that confront us.

It is basically a systemic failure, its provisions, monitoring, solving issues at all levels.
/2
Most of the issues are due to inadequate search of information, exchange of views, analysis and evolving solutions.

Can we not have problem-solving mechanisms independent of or in addition to courts of law?

Are we not having people who are trustworthy, neutral and impartial?

We are passive, peace-loving people who turn aggressive only when fringe elements incite our sentiments and emotions.

We do not hurt and make people uncomfortable if it does not affect our interest.

But raising questions on public issues is not a crime or insult.
/1
We also have a weakness. We are not generous and liberal in appreciating others. So the right voices do not emerge quickly.

Everyone is made to fight hard with ideas and efforts. Most of them lose their steam or they are bulldozed, sidelined, ignored to the extent possible.
/2
This phase may appear to be a long correctional process. It need not be so.

The hardships, sufferings may create awareness among people and the changes may happen sooner.

When the pressure builds up and exceeds the limits it will breach and submerge all negativities.

It is the duty of writers, thinkers, educated, intellectuals, noble leaders and also journalists, to point out the ills of society; to present a path to adopt for the welfare of society and the people.

They are to speak now to check and correct our media and political system.
/1
We need not recreate the French revolution here. It is not necessary to leave the job to politicians for raising questions.

There are many talented people to do that. There is a need to channelise, laying out paths, create ways to bring out the truth, facts before the people.
/2
Media is blurring the vision, mind and brain of the people with their reach and domination.

They are diverting people’s attention to non-issues.

The only way to get the confusions, delusions cleared is to allow free, dispassionate, objective discussions, analysis to happen.

Topic: Dislike for dynasty
It is difficult to say since when the media had these abnormalities as it goes deep back into several decades. It is not required to dig much into past history as we have enough instances to establish a common strain that is not normal. What our concern is, why does it happen?
/1
It is more or less true that the word dynasty creates goosebumps among ‘intellectuals’. We have enough of them in the media.

They acquire ‘intellectual calibre’ as they join media to ‘advocate and judge’ what is right and wrong.

Maybe they can now recruit judges from media.

Topic: Media lacks vision
Here we have to mention that Mahatma Gandhi was the best and perfect political leader India, maybe the world ever had in recent history.

Jawaharlal Nehru could absorb many of his ideals with a modern, socialistic vision that suited our large sections of poor and downtrodden.

Perfectionism:

The job of the media is to gather information; present news and views to all. They also do raise questions to bring out facts. Sometimes by exercising this right, they presume that they are masters, judges, avatars to set right and establish a perfect universe.
/1
Searching and evolving perfection on any issue or system is a process. It may involve many individuals, groups of people from various sections of society, institutions.

Media also plays a part but do not get any superior knowledge or supernatural powers by questioning people.
