Honest and Capable Leadership
It is rather sad that our present leadership has not succeeded to
create an atmosphere in which both institution and the individuals
could best realize their potential .

by a set of God-Tearing ,talented , self sacrificing and highly dedicated
leaders assisted by an equally efficient bureaucracy .

legal justice so that people feel that their basic rights are safe and
intact.

career.
 Their fundamental rights of expression , movement and earning of
respectable livelihood should be preserved at all costs.

education be made compulsory for all.

introduced for the talented students.
