mind vs power

In an unnamed country corruption is high and the people with lot of money and power rule.
Common people have no importance.If the people protest against anything they would do some rallies and bandhs maximum for 2 days and after that the situation comes to routine and everybody forget about the problem.

As this situation is continuing there was lot of power cut during rainy season itself.One boy named Anirudh got angry with the government that they are not responding to the situation.Though he may not do anything.He thought a lot and came up with an idea.

In the evening he went to his friends and explained his idea.When the employees of current department came the collection of electricity bill Anirudh and his friends made their parents refuse to pay the bill.Their parents to suggested their neighbors and colony members not to pay the bill.All of them agreed on not paying the bill.

This news came in news papers and everyone in that town did the samething.The government could do nothing.Because if they were one or two families who are refusing to pay they could force them or cut the current supply in their homes.But as the total town is refusing they dont know what to do.Even more the news spread all over the state and this became a state wide problem.

The government officials came to talk with people.The people said that they wont pay until they solve the power crisis and also find out the reasons for the present situation.The government promised to solve the crisis and the reason for problem within 2 months.Until then they convinced people to make them pay half the current bill.

As they promised they could solve current crisis and found out the curropted officers and politicians many of them were dismissed and they were punished.

There was no current crisis from then.

This method was a huge success and the people adopted the same one(not paying taxes and any government bills)for other problems too like irregular hike in fuel prices,damaged roads and over flow of water in rainy season.

There were no problems in that country from then.
