When we hear the word 'social equality' general thought we get is something like uplifting poor, education, land for all, healthy consumable at affordable price etc. However Indian politicians have found shorter means of achieving equality. To bring down the rich to the beggar's poverty, eradicate good education for all, etc.
The latest such measures were implemented in the railway dept. Few years back the train transactions were automated and made accessible through internet. People need not have to stand in queues, they could just click few pages and book the tickets or ask someone to click those few pages. Saved lot of time and effort; I am sure the dept would have benefited very much with the reduction of work load.
New minister took in charge. Somehow she found online utility as inequality to poor. Hence brought in many changes to the system - mainly to cause inconvenience to the online commuters. For eg, when you query for seat availability, you are put in a virtual queue for few minutes before the page gets loaded!!
Most likely the word bureaucracy was coined after seeing the Indian administration. God save our country.
