Where Do we go from here?

The recent controversies of Rashmi Bansal/Gaurav Sabnis being maliced, intimidated and sued at the hands of a mighty few just because they tried to bring forth the truth for the benefit of the student community upholding the right of freedom of speech, .... and that of the Press correspondents /Press photographers being beaten up by the senior member of the ruling party and his commerades during an election process forces us all like minded people to think... where to from here?
Have we really grown up as a country after getting the well sought and well fought freedom from the British?
How is it different from being a slave of an outsider or anyone from our own household/country?
Do we really adhere to and uphold the Constitution of India?
and at the top of everything, Do we really respect each other as a human being?
I am unable to find answers to most of these questions....
Request your inputs on all these ...

The IIPM controversy
The controversy revolving around IIPM, Rashmi Bansal and Gaurav Sabnis is just atip of an ice-berg. There are many others who are looting students year after year in the name of education and degrees with false promises. I admire JAMMAG/Rashmi Bansal and Gaurav Sabnis for the strength and conviction they have shown to reveal the truth. I am surprised at the reaction of IIPM and its students. Do we accept the age old saying, "might is right" and let them attack the bloggers and journalists and curb the right to free speech. I admire Gaurav Sabnis for his actions and the inaction and inability of IBM to support Gaurav is depressing.
I wish we could have more Gauravs and Rashmis with us.
Let the truth prevail.
