What is first come first served basis?

What is first come first served basis?

It all boils down to who had the first mover advantage. The first mover advantage that politicos and officers could boast of in the past to the civil society reps making the most of this by pitching the tent in the first capital of independent India. Nowadays the public reps who claimed to have the support of sizeable first come first served constituents in the past would be wary enough to do the same; repeating it would be suicidal. THe civil society would like to enthrall the aam janata with a confidence that they and they alone have a reservoir of first come first served support in a bid to checkmate the political class. And herein any provocation from political class would handle the civil reps the first mover advantage on a platter.
It is all about perception and that is what the political class is paying for, not realising when members after members showed the accretion in the wealth over a perod of time. Continuing unchecked in this theme, this led to the private class to show its aptitude and class; the best reflection being the way the IPL matches are conducted and prior to that the astronomical bids they placed for IPL teams. IPL was not solo but one of the events that showcased the money infiltration with no checks and balances. That spawned the all-weather friendly debate on corruption and subsequent events of telecom scam and CWG adding to the legitimacy of having a corruption watchdog.
Had care been taken during IPL itself with equal degree of responsibility shown during CWG (non-hosting would not have landed the political class in dire straits that it finds itself in now), the template of allegations and barbs would have not grown manifold. The civil reps need to bear this mind that in the pursuit of noble goals, things should not go out of control. After all a strong nation state is the best leverage to work with, with the equal desire to stem the desire of greed and goad with a firm hand.
