I, just another Indian, take an oath to disdain, exemplify and exaggerate the flaws of my society.


I promise to find faults with others, to sneer at the dirty roads and unkempt public parks, look down upon my fellow pedestrians, curse other drivers on the road, crib about the abused public properties...

and unfailingly revile India.

Also as just another Indian, I pledge:

1. Never to develop a sense of belonging and/or ownership for the public property OR to take an equal responsibility in maintaing them;

2. Never to mind my own civil behaviour before picking others' faults;

3. Never ever to take out even a single minute out of my precious life (devoted to making materialistic success), to help fellow beings or take an initiative to change;

4. Never to opt for truthfulness, only to further bribery, treachery, mutual hatred and social apathy.

I , henceforth, hope to become a better, just Indian and merge well in this society rather than standing out (for sheer fear of ostracization).

May God help me.
