Better late than never ?
I urge the Cabinet Ministers to click the links above – then ask
of themselves :
Should the REFORMS suggested in these links wait for another
COVID to strike ?
Shall our POLICY MAKERS , always remain REACTIVE than PRO-ACTIVE ?
Do we always need an EXTERNAL THREAT to spur us into a “ too
late “ action ?
Is too much analysis produces a paralysis in our thinking ?
Are we so mortally afraid to carve out for ourselves, a NEW PATH { “ where mind is free
from fear and head held high “ }, that
we seek refuge in well-trodden :
The Calf-Path
With regards,
Hemen Parekh
