Nature is governed by certain laws such as the laws of Physics, Chemistry, Biology etc which are immutable...Then there are laws of economics such as the Malthusian doctrine and the law of supply and demand. These are also immutable. Many governments have tried to act against these laws and failed miserably. Sugar control, prohibition etc are actions by governments against the laws of economics and all these have failed.Then there are the laws of politics and the most important of these laws is that the will of the people will prevail in the end. Many kings and governments have tried incessantly to restrain the power of the people and failed miserably. People want to be independent and at the time they have to cooperate with others for their own good. Though these forces of independence and the forces of cooperation oppose each other some balance is inevitable for our own good. Elemental power lies with the individual. But in a true democracy the individual delegates his power to higher bodies such as the Panchayath and the state for his own good. However modern democracies have inherited power from the kings and emperors of old where power was concentrated with the king or emperor.In India we inherited power from the British and this too is too centralised. At the time of independence this may have been inevitable. But now it is high time we decentralized power to the lowest level. However power mongers are reluctant to let go of their power and so we have conflict of power between the people and states as well as with the centre. The political struggle in Kashmir and elsewhere are part of this struggle between the people and the govt. But in politics the will of the people is far more potent than any government or its armies and it is a matter of time before the will of the people establishes itself. This is a law as immutable as the laws of gravity.--The greatest knowledge is the knowledge that there is so much more to know and the greatest discovery is the discovery that there is so much more to discover"All new ideas good or bad, great or small start with a one-man minority" - anonymousA man without god is a man.
