The VIP Culture in India – Issues
1. VIPs are given special preference at religious places for darshan
2. A common practice by the elected representatives is that the roads and public parks around their residence becomes their personal properties to the extent that they lock the public park denying access by children to play in them
3. VIPs have separate entrances at events whereas the general public has to wait in long lines
4. When VIPs travel, the entire road where ever they go is kept free without any signals. This results in traffic jam and common people getting late for their personal work or official work
5. People take advantage of their VIP contacts to get their work done in all fields
6. Even a distant relative of a Panchayat member feels he/she is a VIP
7. VIPs travel and have a good time using taxpayers money
8. The drivers and associates of VIPs misbehave with others and expect favours like they are VIPs too
9. VIPs go for medical treatment abroad when the best hospitals are very much here
10. VIPs and their family members don’t pay toll tax
11. Family members accompany them on foreign tours
12. A big security contingent moves around with the VIPs on taxpayer’s money
13. Cars with red/blue beacons cause trouble to others
14. VIPs have reserved seats in Railways whereas a common man suffers
15. VIPs don’t turn up at the airport on time and force the airlines to delay flights more

The Indian VIPS have no culture. They live off public money, and do not even do their job, and act as if the country owes them something big. The worst servants one can think of. They are the main reason India is still a "third world country". They are the CR@P left over by the British rule, and have gone horribly stinky with time. They should all be removed and let people not be ruled rather governed by decent citizens. more
