Discussion should be followed by action. Unless that is done it is just like kicking up dust and inhaling them. That is injurious to health. Something that would have remained buried is dug out when experts try to beat down rivals while holding discussion on matters of public importance. The peace of mind gets disturbed when experts used invectives to score the rivals. The views expressed should be sweet to hear and the common men should be able to grasp what is transpired between experts. Because it contains something that cannot be fathomed by common people. Common people desire that able men come out and do the work for the betterment of all without bothering them. If not for this reason why should they rejoice when VVIPS come to their areas? They had put all their hope and aspiration on the able men. Therefore discussion for the sake of discussion does not serve any purpose. The best orator finds the opportunity to beat down the fellow participants in the discussion or seminar. Unable to face the best debater, it happens at the end,the participants backbite each other. The participants at the seminar or discussion came to present their views. It is a human nature everyone wants their views to be upheld by others. In case a view is buffeted by other they begin looking for a way to usher in their views. Not only in politics in discussion also there is groupism. Because they do not want to return home empty handed so they all begin attacking each other during discussion rather than picking up the issues for which discussion was held. Nothing will come out of such discussion that aims at eulogising self. What you did and what others are doing is irrelevant while discussing matters of national importance. Discussion should always end with suggestion. Such suggestion must be acceptable to all including the law making bodies and the executive class. If the discussion elongates longer than necessary consider the end will not be fruitful. Discussion on important issues should not last more than a few hours. If it elongates there must be some reason behind it. Nevertheless it is a good development that civil organisations have shown keen interest in holding discussion on matters of public importance. This will make common people realise what is wrong and what is right. It is a good development. Manipur is alive because the common people understand the need for keeping a state kicking and alive. They cannot be ridiculed when the wrongs are carried here and there. They have nothing to do with all these crimes and corruption which have eaten in to the vitals of the society..
