Our father of nation had profound impact on India by his 'Ahimsa' ways. It has been copied by Bollywood and current generation as 'Gandhigiri' with some success.  An insight recently shared by a leading personality may prove to be more effective and relevant to free modern India from its trappings (& of the entire world as well).

It goes like this - 

Respect honest and selfless work more than you respect people with money, power, contacts.  Just this simple act alone can transform India to unimaginable heights in public standards.  This pearl of wisdom came from Shri N R Narayana murthy, non-executive Chairman and Chief Mentor of Infosys who has set the highest standards for personal and corporate values consistently. He has created a VC fund vehicle (Catamaran) recently to support those who are doing good work for betterment of society. This would have far reaching impact on unleashing the energy and motivation of honest and selfless social champions. Ironically, these champions face ridicule from the same society that they are trying to improve.

Whinepedia sharing the same values, salutes NRN and others who are supporting social champions and has dedicated a corner space in homepage. You are welcome to refer social champions from your area with details.
