oh my trending !!!

There are various types of government - monarchy, communists, democratic etc. Of all these governments democratic form of government is defined as people friendly. Again democracy is defined as Government of the people, by the people, for the people by Abraham Lincoln. For a predefined area one single person is chosen as a representative, collections of such representatives choose a leader and policies are defined under purview of such leadership.

Above paragraph looks so easy to understand but practically it is not. Why? 

Ultimate goal of any good government would be good governance. Good governance means apt representation of aspiration of a person irrespective of his/her caste, creed , religion or economic status for collective development. If you observe keenly in practice it is not so.

For example, a village writes to government for good roads and drinking water. There are distant chances of its request being considered by the administration just by posting a letter or visiting the office of the in-charge. Ideally administration shouldn't be waiting for such letters. When it identifies people settlement it becomes the duty of the government to provide necessary facilities. But in practice it requires considerable use of the term called "influence". It may be through a caste head or a political leader. So a citizen is forced to give in to pressures of so called mass leader for availing facilities.

 So wherein the world democracy being upheld, it is monarchy of different form wherein you are forced to part with your liberties in return for facilities from government.

An ideal way would be government giving due considerations to opinion / requests of the citizen who are willing to communicate with it through letters and memorandums with apt reply for the same.

To counter this indirect blackmailing from the powerful, citizens found unique way of organizing themselves in the form of associations and organizations wherein organizations expressed their opinions through demonstrations and protests to feel empowered in questioning their own created powerful entity.

But by latest these organizations and associations have been hijacked by face-book pages and whats app groups who completely misguide the masses on the basic reason / idea behind organizing themselves in the form of associations and organizations which is nothing but availing facilities from the powerful in the dignified manner.

The epitome of this madness is the politics of trending to showcase their opinion. But sad part of the story is the objectives these trending have achieved. Society would have benefited if there was trending seeking good health schemes or good housing schemes or good employment schemes which showcased the maturity of trend maker.
