The Future of Present

India was ruled by a whole lot of invaders. The pie had many takers. The Aryans, Mughals, Portuguese, French, British and few more had plundered into the land and tasted benefits. The cruelest part of the Indian history was carved by two major regimes.

The first was the British rule. The British got into the country with an “East India Company” banner in 1601, and eventually started influencing the political system. Over a period of time, they even took over the baton and started ruling this nation. The British started harassing people who weren’t obliging to their rules, which were mostly taxing the Indian citizen. This hatred slowly evolved into a revolutionary movement, led by Indian National Congress. In 1947, The British Govt were coerced out of India, and that’s when Indians thought India got independence.

The second and the cruelest of Indian invasions began right there. A barbaric gang took the rule by force. They were called the politicians. They began swindling public money for their personal good. They reinstalled the inheritance laws in politics, and became patrons of their own sons and daughters. They had sweepstakes on all Government expenditures. They influenced violence and were carriers of immorality. They were the last people to utilize the useless philosophy called Democracy.

Appu closed his history ebook.

“Amma, just how did SysINdia V3.2 system take over the rule from the politicians ???”

Vani shrugged and looked outside the window. “Nobody knows…” she said.
