Cleaning up Indian political system

I have aired the below views purely as a patriotic Indian whose blood boils like every other Indian seeing the quality of politicians and how rotten the whole system has become that it has reached a stage where it has gone beyond hopes of restoring honesty, dignity and concept of service. We have a half-a-thousand idiots sitting and eating the tax-payers money.

To me, the Dec 13 attack on parliament was the biggest opportunity we ever had to clean up this political system. Few security guards who sacrificed their lives fighting out the terrorist, did their duty as per their training, preventing the terrorist from getting into the parliament house when almost 80% of elected idiots were present. But if they been little sensible, they could have allowed the men to get inside, and then nabbed by circling the whole building. They (terrorist) are suicide attackers and so they would have committed suicide instead of getting caught. But this was the best possible chance that we ever got to clean up. Yes, there could have been deaths of some gentleman politician – who have always worked for the people, have not misused their power, have not received single penny as bribe, lived a simple life, but they would have gone down in history as who sacrificed their life similar to what great freedom fighters did to this country.
