My Vision Of an Ideal World Order

My utopia is not different as Gandhiji had dreamt of for India about 8 decades ago, at that time we were not so globalised as we are today. We were bounded within country's frontiers. But, now we can't think our emancipation without indulging in other country's problems. So, my vision is not for only India but for whole world. Jawahar lal nehru had said on the eve of independent india on 15th august 1947 in the historic speech of ‘’tryst with destiny’’ that ‘’ Those dreams are for India, but they are also for the world’’. So, in my utopian world, i can imagine an utopian India as well. World has entered into 21st century, and  one decade has also passed. World now facing with many novel  21st century challenges. My utopian world would be that world where we find every challenges under the feet.

Everyone in the world is entitled to get basic health facilities. In hinterland of not only India but for almost every country in the world people are facing the challenges of many fatal diseases. Those diseases are curable but due to lack of medical facilities they reluctantly  end their lives. My vision of Ideal world would be where we can provide basic health facilities to all and sundry because if the people are healthy in the world then we can excel in every arena of life.

Most of the problems arises due to destitution in the world. People are unable to get facilities and somewhere they are deprived of the basic amenities due to scarcity of money. Poverty at grass root level also breeding many social evils. My utopia would be free of destitution so that we can nip the evils in the bud. where we can't differentiate people as" rural" and "urban" in perspective of reach of facilities. In the book "Target 3 billion", APJ Abdul kalam' s vision of eradicating  poverty of 3 billion people out of 6 billion people in the whole world is also my dream. And my dream for whole world would be accomplished by implementation of the APJ Kalam Sir's Scheme of PURA ( providing urban amenities in rural areas). My utopia would be a poverty less world where everyone can fulfill their basic necessities without succumbed to financial crisis at individual level.

My utopia would be a place where everyone should have something to do accordance with their skill. Unemployment is now a global problem. It would be wrong to say that we have less jobs in the world, but reality is that we have not enough quality human resource to use them in making hunky dory world. People in the world are not unemployed but most of them are unemployable. We often encounter people holding technical degree vying for financial sector Jobs or for BPOs.  This omnishambles unemployment should redress through prudent mechanisms. My ambition to create ideal world order will accomplish by making people imbibe skills according to orientation of the job. My utopia in this regard would be a place where people can get benefitted themselves with various skills and get their work according to their skills and educational level.

Almost all over the world, we have child protection laws, but millions of children die every year due to various reasons like lack of health facilities, malnourishment, over exploitation by employing them in hazardous factories. Children who are considered as future of any country gave up their lives before they see the dawn of their real life. In my utopia there would be no child labour, no child exploitation, Every children under the age of 16 will be found in classrooms. I will make education free for all of them. I will create that type of education through which they can be able to generate exchequer for themselves. This will make them self-reliant from inception of school days, after that they have not to face any unemployment challenges, which today most of the children after elementary education generally face. So, my utopian world would be a place where children will not only get bookish knowledge but they will also get vocational training as an integral part of school education.

It's a time to put a cap on male domination over female. In developed countries we rarely see such disparities on the basis of gender, but the majority of the countries , which are still developing have radical and orthodox view regarding women. Women violence and atrocities on women especially in countryside are every day happenings. There women are facing many kind of violence, Criminal violence- rape, abduction, murder, and domestic Violence like dowry deaths, wife battering, sexual abuse. Gender bias in the society is common, Boys in the family and even in society are given extra preferences over girls. Girls are treated as liability, this tendency in the society has arises due to sort of dowry system. So, instead of female infanticide, we have to eradicate dowry system. My utopia would be consist of those people who wholly reject all the atrocities done on the women. In my view consolidation of ideal world is not possible without equal participation of male and female.

Corruption in today's world has become the part and parcel of life. In my view corruption is making impact on the society by two means, first, Corruption in "whole sale" ( big scams) and second, Corruption in "retail" (corruption at basic level). Prolong corruption in "whole sale" ( big scams) is enough to ruin a country, but  Corruption in "retail" (corruption at basic level) is more devastating for common people because it affects directly their pockets. Common people suffer due to corruption in each and every stage of life. In my utopia, world will be so transparent that it would be difficult for anyone to make manipulation of a single penny. My utopia or vision of an ideal world is to have market like efficiency in public works. In my ideal world politicians will not get elected to make multiple scams but to establish an accountable government and as a protector of the interests of the common people and as a care taker of all its citizens. Probity will be enhanced to that level that we will not need any corruption perception index (CPI) and other corruption checking institutions.

The most disastrous problem which the world is facing today is Terrorism. Terrorism is a curse and terrorism in the name of religion is more devastating as it augment hatred among people of different faiths. Although terrorism is a gigantic problem but in my utopia, where solidarity will come together to eradicate any challenge we can make the world get rid of terrorism. There is handful of people who have created all ruckus in the world. To have control over them is cakewalk. My ideal world would be without any terror groups and without any terror incentive entity.

Now, every country is accumulated with contemporary war weapons and nuclear defence equipment. In This era, no country can be considered weak. Sophisticated war equipments have made everyone smart enough, a button has to press to destroy the whole world in a jiffy. In this regard my dream of an ideal world is somewhat similar to the Einstein's thought which he once described "the military system, which I abhor... This plague-spot of civilization ought to be abolished with all possible speed. Heroism on command, senseless violence, and all the loathsome nonsense that goes by the name of patriotism -- how passionately I hate them! " ..We are living in a globalized world where country's frontiers doesn't make any sense. Now, whole world is like a family, so showing ultra-nationalism or chauvinism and to wage war and spreading violence is not the appropriate way. We have already seen the consequences of both world wars- World War I (1914-1918) and World War II (1939-1945). It is almost impossible to make restitution of collateral damages. During second world war even Gandhiji wrote to Hitler, " my dear friend, please stop world war II from happening. Every country, whether she is victorious in the war but lose something in the war". So, my utopia would be a world like a single country and all present countries would work like states, which by any means will not possess any military power to overpower other states. in my dream world order each and every complicated issues would be resolved by sitting around the table, by debates and prudent considerations. By making whole world as a single country and all present countries as her associate states we will be able to put a cap on many global problems like burgeoning population, environmental issues, and this will create uniform distribution of resources in the world.

In my utopian world everyone will live with peace, harmony, probity will be at top both in individual level and institutional level. Everyone will have a shed for staying and bread for living along with all amenities which are sine qua non to lay good life. Everyone will be prosperous. World will witness a tranquility where people will completely renunciate the means of violence. Humanity will flourish in my ideal world and no one will be cynical, everyone will be treated alike regardless of their class, caste and religion. All kind of stereotype will cease to exist in my utopia. There is a basic rule of "successful" Mathematics that if we want to get the desired answer then at first we have to assume something. So, I am sure, my assumptions of an ideal world order will be a reality one day.
