“We have, in fact, two kinds of morality side by side; one which we preach but do not practice, and another which we practice but seldom preach.”
In today's world if you return the balance from a check that the guest pays at a restaurant, you are considered noble. Hey i was talking about morality here! The last being the suspension of Lalit Modi. Honestly, why was there such a hue & cry about it !? Everyone had just one thing to say "Usney Paisa Khaya Hai!" The question I ask is very simple, who amongst them didn't make use of the plenty money falling their way !? In other words, "Paisa sab khatey hain" who gets caught, is the real catch. Everyone just completely overlooked the real hard work that, that guy had done, and in the public eyes, he became the real "Culprit". All he did wrong was, to press the wrong nerve of the wrong person at the wrong time. untill before this, Shilpa & Raj Kundra were owners of the Rajasthan Royals team. As soon as this issue hit the media, Shilpa Shetty suddenly changed her statement to being merely the brand ambassador of the team! My favorite guy,Tharoor, who honestly I thought was the real hope to Great Indian Political drama, steped down from his portfolio, gave me a real heartache. Extremely well read man, having the experience of holding important positions at the UN, nouvelle ideas, failed miserably at the most important task: Understanding the "cattle class" which makes up 90% of the Indian population. Only if he understood hes not dealing with the white house anymore. Just when I thought that phew! our country is finally progressing, we have the younger generations of the well known politicians of the erstwhile times. Thud! we hit the ground reality, its all an eye wash. All the hero politicians of mine like Sachin Pilot, J Scindia play the role of the nominal head much like the text book job descriptions of the President, remember president is the 'nominal head' & prime minister the 'REAL HEAD'. These people were carefully put in place to show, that the younger generation is actively involved, when these people have no real powers vested in them. Like the other day, my cousin went to get a college form, completely unaware that he had to submit a draft and not cash. The guy at the counter looked at him & said pay me Rs. 50 extra for each form & I shall get a draft for you. Just when he did that & left, thinking he was sweet, where would had he been lucky to have gotten a draft from, he overheard the guy talking to another boy in the queue " Two lanes down is the bank, go get a draft made"! The scenario looks bleak, but hey we are getting there..where !?..being moral and preaching it too..!? !!

well to start , Lalit Modi is one person who I think was not corrupt. the new person in place is. He not only did make India proud, he made all other cricket boards around the world looked stupid. No one in 3 IPL can take out a single episode of match fixing, the money involved is higher than match fixers would pay.
Suddenly . when all tried hard to imitate the success of modi , and when his model was going high , indian mentality strikes back.
morality is missing as the pride in today's people.
Bang on Deepak.. Like I said " everybody went on to over look poor fellows efforts- and blamed him "
Morality is sure Mi_ _ing !! :(
