Hi friends,

I am Jyoti from India. Hope you are all enjoying the weekends, here I am going to participating in the SEC17 WEEK2 contest: https://steemit.com/hive-180106/@hive-180106/sec-s17-w2-or-what-if-you-were-the-president-of-your-country Organised by Steem For Pakistan community.

What if you were the president of your country?

✍️ If you were the president of your country, what would be your top three priorities and why?

Maybe if I am elected president of our country as you think I can't make any change because in our country the president has no permission to execute the plans whereas the Prime Minister of India is the head of the administration and the most powerful person in the country. In our country the President is the ceremonial head of the country. The President of India is the country's first citizen and holds the highest office. So maybe if I am elected as Prime Minister I will answer your question here.

Our country has a large population and we do not consider it as a weakness but consider it as our strength because our country has our people in the army and our people in all the leading professions and they work hard for the sake of nationalism.

So if I had to make three changes, absolutely free education, absolutely free healthcare, I would remove 50 percent of the taxes now and when I would remove 50 percent of the taxes and replace them with fine. I will explain about them here below:

Fines and penalties

The more people we have in our country, the more taxes we pay. People pay more taxes than any other country in the world. For example, there are about 150 crore people in our country and every citizen has to pay tax when using any product or service. And extra taxes like income tax, commercial tax, road tax are also to be paid. The infrastructure of our country is very low compared to other countries. Necessary facilities such as proper roads, sanitary system, waste management, drinking water etc. have not yet been made in our country since we got independence on 1947.

So, I will reduce the tax burden on the people and instead arrange fines to guide the people and improve this country. People in the country are fined for any wrongdoing, for example, fines for littering in public, fines and punishments for sexual harassment. Similarly, when committing big crimes, the fines and punishments are high, and when the tax burden is reduced, people will get used to this fine and help the country progress.

Absolutely free education:

If a country wants to progress, its people must progress. For people to progress, you don't have to give them money for free. You don't have to give them free goods. You don't have to give free food. At the same time, when you give free education to people, they will fulfill their needs through that education and education for the country. With knowledge they will work for the country.

There are various educational and educational institutions in our country now. They are conveniently located. There are many education models, so some are very knowledgeable and some are very educated and know nothing. So, my opinion is that everyone in the country should have the same education and schools, and all of them should be free. Perhaps if I am elected as the Prime Minister I will do the work related to the above.

Absolutely free healthcare:

Due to the high population and the high number of poor people in our country, they have very limited health facilities. Hospitals are not adequate for the existing population. During the corona epidemic, we have seen in the news that many patients were sitting on the road seeking medical services. It was very embarrassing for us. And even though the country has state-of-the-art hospitals at present, all of them remain accessible only to the wealthy. It is my hope that such state-of-the-art hospitals should be available to all the poor and free of cost. People will be healthy if they get free medical care. Unnecessary expenditure of the government will be reduced. Similarly healthy people are more industrious and thereby the country progresses.

✍️ As president, what specific steps would you take to improve education and healthcare systems in your country?

As I answered in the first question, education and health will definitely be in my three manifesto. Because education is something that people must have. When people are educated, they create everything they need. Through that they give income to the country. At the same time, I believe that education should be equal for everyone.

Similarly, medicine should be available to everyone equally. It is my expectation that everyone should have access to modern medicine for free. While providing free medical care, the people of the country will use their money for other needs. Their time will be saved. At the same time healthy people will work more and their work will be useful for the country.

✍️ As a president, what challenges you could face in improving the overall condition of your country?

There will definitely be a lot of resistance to accomplishing the three principles I mentioned above. Even if the people support my policies, the money capitalists who have been making money from education and medicine until now will not welcome it. Because only the rich are managing the educational institutions and hospitals in the country. Their income will be hampered by these policies of mine. Therefore, they will oppose these policies. Similarly, many people will not agree with my first principle "reduce tax burden and pay penalty" because 50% of people in the country do not pay income tax. But when it comes to fines, there is a compulsion to be strict. So those kinds of people dislike the policy.

✍️ Would you do something new to write the history of your country? What will it be?

Maybe if I am elected as Prime Minister "Strong India!, Poverty free India! Healthy people!, Intelligent people!" I want to create I will try hard to make necessary arrangements for this. All the three things I mentioned above can be a bit difficult to implement.

However, as was done during the Corona Pandemic period, by locking down for six months or one year, during that time only the necessary facilities are available and to build all the roads in the country and other facilities like drainage, sanitation, garbage maintenance etc. I will amend the Bills and make laws in accordance with the principles I have stated above. I will release the lockdown after reducing the tax burden and increase the penalties. By doing so, post-lockdown India will develop differently and become a superpower and my name will surely be etched in history.

I like to invite @eliany, @shiftitamanna, @dexsyluz, to take part in this contest.
