One often thinks how easily our leaders trick the public by promising them that they will change the destiny of the poor and transform the country into a developed one like European countries.

Programmes like the health card or the Ehsaas programme may be a short-term fix, but not a solution to alleviate poverty. For that, we need a long-term strategy geared towards encouraging business and creating jobs. If our leaders are honest and true to themselves, the people will listen to and follow them to make the country even stronger. History tells us that our people have always gone out of the way to sacrifice and donate for the country in the time of need.

It is disappointing to learn that India has been elected as a non-permanent member of the UN for two years. India is a country that has blatantly defied UN resolutions on Kashmir. People in Indian-occupied Kashmir are facing the worst atrocities while the world is looking the other way. India has been holding Kashmiris under siege for more than a year now. This abuse of power has received little to no reaction from world leaders. Last month, the Indian army attacked a vehicle carrying officers of United Nations Military Group in India and Pakistan (UNMOGIP). This attack is quite serious. The security councils’ job is to resolve disputes between the countries with estranged relations. However, it appears that world powers are concerned about their own economies, progress and the safety of their own people.
