CJI Thakur once again has hit the correct chord that echoes with rest of the country and people. Seeking votes in the name of God seems bypassing the people made by God. And if you address the people for that matter, they will not have religion in their priority list. Not because religion is less important, but simply for the reason that religion is developed at max. It does not need any improvements. But the people, their lives, and surroundings need correction.
Religion is a personal choice and is a matter of self empowerment. People follow one or other religion because they need a way of life to follow. And for that, neither a Guru is needed nor a leader. For all the problems, people may have, there is an inner-voice which keeps them guided at every single step without failing. And for correct behaviour to life, there are holy books in all religions that have generic ways to fix all the problems and live stress-free.
So, people will not look up to an MP or MLA for their religious matters rather they would want them to work on development. If their area is developed, they will look for advanced features. And if the area is a metro city's location, people will want to make it world class. And if it world class, they will want the MLA or MP to make it even better.
In this entire list of things to be expected from a public representative, religion is no where. And it is never needed to be there in first place, period.
Those who ask for votes in lieu of religious favors are simply running away from their responsibility. A sitting representative will raise such issue only when they have failed to deliver on their promises.
It's the time we draw a thick line between religion and development. To survive, we need development, and to live well, we need religion. For development, we need public representatives to work for us while for religious front, we need our hearts to beat in consonance with the God's voice which is there inside us.
