It is not possible to refute the statement “India’s Crisis is Mainly Moral- Not Economic” as it says the bitter truth. Our country broke the shackles of foreign domination about sixty years ago but are really free even today and the life is far from happy. While a few roll in wealth and spend lavishly and live luxuriously, millions and millions of our countrymen hardly get two squire meals a day. We may well ask ourselves how this has come about, and we shall find that our national character has degenerated. The problem of unemployment is causing a nation wide agitation, and waste a major part of the hard earned money in simply aping the west. This money would have surely helped avert the situation, if invested and utilized in the field of education, positive development etc. Corruption in all walks of life has become an important issue, so much that there are people running a virtually parallel economy through corrupt means. But what can be done about it? Today corruption reigns supreme in every sphere of life. From all this it appears that we do not in earnest think of a socialist or Gandhian society.
The reason behind et al is quite simple. Today, we fail to implement our thoughts into practice. We talk in high tones about the eradication of illiteracy, poverty, untouchability etc. But do we really follow it? Above all we find our representatives indulged in vile deeds. India which once had a glorious past should have been a beacon for the world of today. On the contrary, we find that India herself has degenerated in her mad pursuits after modernization. It not only proves the hollowness of our character but it also show that we are being morally bankrupt day. By day, giving rise to a national Crisis, that is more moral than economic.

India never had never will have lack of resources, we only lack in honest individulas who can ensure judicious utilisation of resources.
Today we are waisting around $30 trillion every year as human resources, that simply implies that even our human resources are either not being used or not contributing at their optimal level. It has a lot to do with morality, If an IAS officer finds it hard to stick to Integrity & honesty, the problem definitely is rooted in our upbringing. We must ponder upon, that where are we ultimately going wrong? where are we picking these things from? has Education stopped inspiring us for the virtues of Humanity?
