Polls 1

I want to see a national debate between the prime ministerial candidates. For once , something which would have a direct impact on the middle class , instigating them to vote , and that too for the right people.
Yesterday, one of my batchmates forwarded me BJP's IT vision.

I have never read a manifesto as such. But , seeing this, I think , being overtly optimistic about it's implementation , BJP with such points could bring in the digital revolution.
But then, the points specified are so generic that they can be the summary of a GD that takes place on Sundays.
Also, the implementation details are missing. It's something like their erstwhile India Shining , where a rosy picture is being painted, but which is far away from reality.
For example, how in 3 years can they give a national identity device to every citizen of India, when we do not even have a total count of Indian citizens?
Also, once this identity is with every citizen , won't the militant forces have a free access to get this identity of being an Indian citizen.
The country cannot afford to give a billion of identification devices which would be tamper proof.
This seems , on a cursory analysis to be , if implemented , something like the dotcom bust.
Mr. Advani , it would be better if this vision of yours could be tranformed from 'in your dreams' to something realistic.
But I like the idea of all the post offices being given broadband access ( well I feel even a dial-up would be just fine, considering the length and breadth of our nation).
Post offices can serve the dual porpose of being a place for the snail communication and the e-communication.
Advani's IT vision.
