Heres how YOU can help as a COMMON CITIZEN of India…. Each one of u must write a Letter to the Editor of at least one of the leading newspapers of the country-mails BY POST (there being no upper limit to the number of newspapers of course)-the more, the merrier… u can also send emails(in addition to the postal mails) Each one of us will then write postal mails to Sonia Gandhi, PM Manmohan Singh and Leader of Opposition L. K Advani n perhaps even leaders of CPM …demanding the re-induction Of President Kalam, or at least someone as capable (or more) to step into his shoes, stating explicitly that the bar has been set high and WE CARE ABOUT WHO BECUMS THE NEXT PRESIDENT OF INDIA. Each one of us will also send mails by post to the Rashtrapati Bhawan, urging Dr. Kalam to STAY… (PLEASE NOTE, THIS IS ONLY FOR THOSE OF U WHO DO WANT HIM TO STAY- IF U HAVE A DIFFERENT CHOICE, SAY NARAYANA MURTHY OR OTHERS, WELL AND GOOD…MAY THE BEST MAN WIN…OUR IDEA IS JUST TO MAKE YOUR OPINION HEARD).. The idea is to flood the residences of the Powers-that-be and the Rashtrapati Bhawan with such mails (it may sound far fetched, but is a practicable idea if implemented in the right earnest) and we will then highlight this through the mass media –that public opinion is building in this regard, and then it will be imperative for THEM to be answerable for every action, in fact, to act in accordance with OUR interests- making it impossible for them to appoint any PUPPET Tom, Dick or Harry as the President. Given below are the templates of mails to all the concerned authorities---this is just to cut down on ur personal effort – feel free to write on ur own of course--u cud write these mails in handwriting or maybe typed mails, but MUST carry ur name (first name at least) n city and if poss. Signature as well…u cud always sign off as an IGNITED INDIAN MIND of course (stretching the dramatic element—more media attention!)U see we are looking at the volume of mails….that is what will catch the attention of the media as well as the politicians…
LETTER TO THE EDITOR
This is in reference to the upcoming presidential elections, If we must at all have a President in a Parliamentary Democracy, let us have one who is worth the huge amount of money that is spent from our pockets, on maintaining this office. President Kalam has set the bar high for whoever comes in next- a certain sanctity has been restored to the Position and we shall not let the indifferent Politicians defile the same. The names that are being suggested as candidates (who would make puppet presidents of course) make a mockery of the ethos of the Constitution of India. And we, the people of India DEMAND through these columns OUR President, if not President Kalam, then at least someone as capable as him or more, but certainly not someone who would lower the standards so raised.
