Serving the purpose of ‘Republic’

In the year 1950, this great nation became a sovereign republic. Republic or a system of people. The whole idea behind the adoption of a republican system was to ensure the participation of all people in governance and that in turn would be in accordance with the interest of the majority.In a joint family, its members have different needs and temperament. It is the responsibility of the head of the family to see that at least the basic requirements of all are fulfilled and they also get a chance to present their views and ideas regarding various issues. The head also needs to check that the work of one member does not cause hindrance in the path of success of others. The same is exactly the case with our republican system. Its head, namely the government has to see that no section is neglected. At present, the distribution of resources is so uneven that ninety-five percent of the total resources of our country in the hands of just five percent people and on the other hand the remaining ninety-five percent of the population struggles to get its share from mere five percent resources.It's the moral and official duty of the government to ensure proper allocation of funds in various fields and work on priority basis. It also needs to involve the populace in decision-making. We certainly don’t appreciate a republic without the very thought of involvement of the public. The arrow shot can not be brought back , but we indeed can ascertain that our next arrow hits the target well. So, lets hope that in the coming years this nation serves the purpose of being a republic.

A republic neds to allocate its resources in such a way that all people in the society get equal amount of resources without any discrepancy.Government needs to ensure that resorces are not concentrated in the hands of few.
