Change - The only constant thing - remains unchanged

My last post was about a year back on election. Elections did bring in change. Arguably for the better. Governance under coalition regime came to an end. A clear mandate was given by the people so as to straighten things in government & governance. It was a nice break from the routine. We earnestly hope for better days. ('Acha Din'). With a glorious start and a good pace, things started to fall into place. Big propaganda and little action at ground slowly moved out. Programs such as 'Swatch Bharath Abhiyan' moved well with public participation. And the first full budget of the present Central government has been laid out. Of late, I am getting skeptical about the change that current government is supposed to bring out. I am finding continuance of many policies of erstwhile governments. Hence the title of this monologue! Additionally we have enough controversies in political circle - be it at central level or at the state level. Common Man has no time to mull these things over. He/She is worried about the immediate needs - personal or familial or of the society. I hope media - including print, television and social - to turn away from sensational and controversial stuff. Glorifying unwanted acts/elements might fetch readers. Are they going to help in nation building in the long run? Are we teaching next generations any value by printing and talking about all the rubbish ? Let there be some consensus among media to restrain reporting on trivial issues.
