A fair-priced farmer's market, Jobs oriented education system and a pollution free India

The Issue

I, for one, strongly believe that a nation like India gets propelled by rightful crops purchasing from farmers. This is the first and foremost challenge staring at us in form of a huge expectation. Farmers grow everything that we all need to survive and in return we hand over despair, depravity and economic depression to them. Let us change it before it gets too late.

Secondly, the education system at school level is disheartening. Our body needs good food and likewise a healthy mind needs free flowing knowledge that brings joy on pupils' faces. Moreover, the cost of educating oneself at school level is exorbitant and unjust. The government schools need a complete makeover to spearhead the "right of education for all" initiative. This changeover shall bring a winning takeover in no time. The gap between "a rural student" and an "urban chap" is unbridgeable at this point of time because of the learning they get in their formative years. That's why we don't see a lot of rural youth making it to corporate jobs let alone government jobs.

Thirdly, the pollution has been corrupting planet earth for so long. We need strong policies and people driven programs to reduce the carbon print. If we fail to breathe in a clean and refreshing environs, then what is the use of all these changes and challenges.

Responded
Dear Citizen, Thank you for sending in your petitions on Change.org to be a part of the INC’s process of preparing our election manifesto - a document that outlines our agenda for the next 5 years in government. The Indian National Congress, under the leadership of Shri Rahul Gandhi, initiated a first-of -its kind crowd sourced manifesto. Our commitment and underlying motivation was to incorporate Jan Awaz or the People’s Voice into our goals for the country’s progress. We are immensely happy to see passionate responses such as yours. I want you to know that your idea was placed before the Manifesto Committee and given careful consideration when the Congress prepared its vision document. While it may be difficult to incorporate all valuable suggestions in the short document produced, we are committed to NYAY (Justice) for all citizens of our country. The Indian National Congress Party will look forward to creating a better India with you. You can read the full manifesto on manifesto.inc.in. We are hopeful that many aspects will resonate with you. To remain updated on our work, follow us @INCIndia on Twitter. Thank You Prof MV Rajeev Gowda Member of Parliament & Convenor, INC Manifesto Committee
