Through this final episode of What’s Your Choice for this season we thank you very, very much for all your wonderful support, your encouraging comments and your determination to fight with us against social evils by intervening. This show has made it clear, when anyone asks an ordinary Indian – What’s Your Choice – you’ve answered categorically – step in and do something, act – do not turn away and say this is none of my business.

i fully supported and i wanted to be eradicated from the root cause of the india as well from the world.
Every1 knows about the involvement of bribe in the procedure of getting the passport.When i applied the same happened with me.
Police officer who came for police verification straight away told me to give his fee (rs.5000),then the 2nd officer after some moments told me that he was joking and i required to give default amount i.e. rs.500
now,that was the moment They came to knew the power of an #honest #common #man ,i straightly said i wouldn’t give bribe to anybody,i am member of @AAp and Fond of #priciples of #baapu
then they again asked for bribe from my father in the night.My father told them not to try fight with the #principles of a honest #son
then again #LIU officer the famous corrupt person of this place asked for bribe at the time of verification and he also failed.
in the end I would like to tell every1 that if we stop giving #bribe then no 1 can fetch it from our pocket.
No offence intended, but guys, LET’S WAKE UP!
The program is a good effort from NDTV, but haven’t we seen all this in earlier similar programs (Satyamev Jayate, for example)? We praised that program (just like we are praising this one), discussed it for some time, and then went our ways as if nothing happened.
Such programs can, at best, create awareness (that’s what they are meant for, believe me). However, the change that these programs intend to create will not come in the form of another reincarnation of God. It is us who have to make the change. As Gandhi said, “Be the change you wish to see in the world”.
It is good to discuss the problem, but it is even better to discuss the solution. Instead of talking about what is required of the Indian society, I think it would be much more fruitful if we start discussing what we (as individuals) have done in this direction. Let us become the torchbearers of the movement and motivate people around us to join us.
Honestly, I cannot claim to be a torchbearer as of now because I am yet to put my thoughts into action, but if someone here claims to have done something in this regard, I would request such person to come forward and initiate the discussion.
I have two lovely daughters and I can very well see the kind of gender bias that Indians have against not just the girl child, but also towards the parents. Not just my family (parents, etc.) but also my friends’ behaviour is sometimes weird and unacceptable to me. Every time somebody invites me to a function of their boy child and I am unable to attend it for some (genuine) reason, they react by saying that I am still to come to terms with the fact that I have two daughters and no son. I know that the moment we try to tell them that we are really blessed to have our daughters, their stupid behaviour intensifies. Finally, I have given up. As such, my family and I (me, my wife and my daughters) prefer to stay away from them as much as possible. Is there any better way to deal with such people?
People in this part of the world seriously need to understand that having educational qualifications does not make them ‘educated’ if it has done nothing good to their primitive brain! I wish girls who gave birth to such morons were never born in their families – we would have had less of such stupid people on earth.
Dear Dr. Roy, Your “what is your choice” program is an example of showing the real pulse of our current attitude towards our social intolerance in our country. NDTV effort is commendable and it unearths the ground reality in an unbiased realistic mode. The new ground zero approach is good because we heard a lot of talk within studio and now hearing the straight talk from whom we suppose to hear.
