I am Frustated Mr Prime Minister.

I’m frustrated Mr Prime Minister.

I’m frustrated by a nation that persecutes you for expressing freedom of speech.

I’m frustrated by a nation where the cops want their presence to be felt so they arrest you for whatever flimsy reason they want and they get away with it.

I’m frustrated that women like Damini are being raped every day and killed ruthlessly as they come out of their schools and colleges in the evening.

I’m frustrated by cops that think it is ok to touch women and say inappropriate things because they know you have no one else to turn to.

I’m frustrated that it has become the norm to bribe traffic officials to get out of tickets.

I’m frustrated because people in the service industry get upset when you complain about bad service.

I’m frustrated by the corrupt leaders roaming free and deciding our fate sitting in the parliament.

I’m frustrated by a country that cannot feed its own people and is buying food grown by the same people they threw out.

I’m frustrated by the fall of the education system in a country that used to have the best education in Asia.

I’m frustrated by all the potholes on the road.

I’m frustrated by the corruption in all levels of government.

I’m frustrated by the amount of dirt on the ground.

I’m frustrated.

I’m frustrated by the millions of rupees that are apparently obtained from TAX every month. So why do my roads still have potholes? Why is the infrastructure in my country so worn out? Why is the health system so terrible? Why do we have power cuts? Why does law fail us every single day?

I’m frustrated. I’m looking for answers but have nowhere to find them. I’m frustrated by the state my country is in. we’ve taken 10 steps back. I’m frustrated because I see the progress other Asian countries are making and can’t help but wonder, why not us? Why not my country? But most of all I think I’m frustrated because I feel hopeless and helpless. I don’t know where to start finding solutions.
