As the news of Bharat Bandh Spread,Zillions of people must have started fettering their feathers,to join the "Event".
The Ruling party must have had their mechanism working towards damage control,No Indian,not the damage to public property,but to the image of the Party itself.The opposition must have started to prepare for a series of Arson attacks,must have got effigies in place to Burn them...All in the name of Protest!
The real truth is that none is concerned about the nation,its nationals..Or am I wrong??
Yeah,I think I am wrong...maybe,the arson will awaken the government to act in a fair way,or maybe burning the effigies will relieve the politicians of their sins!!
The truth remains that until and unless the structure of "Youth politics" in India is strong,We are virtually heading nowhere!!!
Just sample this:
Petroleum Prices in the world/litre:
Pakistan-Rs.40.09/-
Bangladesh-Rs.34.43/-
Cuba-Rs.22.12/-
Nepal-Rs.44.50/-
Burma-Rs.38.73
Afghanistan-Rs.42/-
Qatar-Rs.28.68/-
Saudi Arabia-Rs.5.21/-
Venezuela-Rs.0.79/-
USA-Rs.19.54/-
UAE-Rs.17.60/-
& India...Is soaring at Rs.53.44!
Is this the way the second fastest growing economy of the world functions??
The government has been crying over the losses caused to HPCL,IOC & BPCL in tune of Rs. 950 Crores & Bragging about the subsidies given by them,but what the govt. is doing exactly??
This is the break up:
Basic cost of Crude oil-Rs.13.50/- per litre
Processing costs-Rs.3.00/-
Central Tax-Rs.11.80/-
Excise duty-Rs.9.75/-
State Tax(Haryana)-Rs.8.00/-
Vat+Cess-Rs.4.00/-
Total-Rs.50.05/-!
Now The bonus of Rs.3.39/- is charged from the so called "Aam Aadmi"!
If u see the balance sheets of the govt. run oil companies,here are the hidden facts!
HPCL-FY '08-'09 Profit=Rs.574.53 crores
IOC-FY '09-'10 Profit-Rs.776.41 crores
BPCL-FY '09-'10 profits hovering at Rs. 448 crores!!
And then...The companies are making losses :)
If in reality the cos. are loss making entities,why is there no major disinvestment in the stakeholding by the government??
Why do we not see a regulatory authority in place,while the government has even decided to "Deregulate" the fuel prices??
Why do we not see FPOs of the company out in the market??
Why are Oil fields in Krishna-Godavri basin is owned by Cairn energy,when it is a sovereign part of the Indian territory??
There are lots of Whys!!But the government is mum!!!
Now,Shifting our focus to the Opposition,those who gave India campaigns like "Bharat Uday" ...
Being a staunch BJP supporter,and an active member of BJYM,I agree with the party bosses about the era of revolution ushered in by the NDA government!!The Metros,the infrastructure,the telecom revolution-all were the parts of the package given to us by the NDA government!
But,if Mr. Advani or Mr. Gadkari/Mr. Arun Jaitely really call themselves true Indians,why couldn't they hold the protests in a more peaceful manner???
As a true Indian,you cannot justify the Losses in tune of Rs.3000 crores caused due to Today's Bharat Bandh!!
If this is the way a democracy functions,I pray to lord to snatch away our voting rights & put an autocratic government in place,which atleast is well equipped to handle such delicate issues!
I pray to lord to install common sense in each of these politicians minds so that India,in reality can Shine & shine bright!!!
We are lucky enough to have had a legacy of great leaders,the only problem is that no1 seems to carry this off in the modern era,barring maybe say a Narendra Modi(But who is accused of Manslaughter) or Say,Naveen Pattnaik(Who is not ready to leave Orissa at any cost)!!
We are very lucky to have a soft spoken,polite,undecisive,puppet kind of a PM in place,with a sensor,too sensitive to an Italian Remote Control!
We are very lucky,to have a student political system,where the main consideration for votes is Daaru,Beer & Power..rather than Human rights!
We are very lucky to have an education system,which has become a "Reserved Class" constituency,with most of the seats going either to the SCs,STs,Minorities,The Girls,The OBCs etc. etc...Oh!I forgot the disabled & the "Sifarish lals"!While there is no reservation for A student securing 94% marks,but whose parents can't afford to send him to college,bear his expenses!
The Cut-offs in India are as low as 96%(Ooh sorry,its 96.54321.....%),Then tell me why the junks with 95% marks be allowed to be admitted in top colleges??They do not deserve admissions,do they??
While...I fully support the admission of an SC Christian candidate,whose father is a top government official,who travels by Cheauffer driven Camry,with 68% marks(How do the marks matter..Right??This is India,OK)!
We are very lucky to have A legal system,which is as fast as a snail(OK OK,Sorry,snail is faster!).Where a "Poor",BMW driving murderer,A rapist,A person responsible for 20,000 deaths,are either left scratch free,or penalised with "Rigorous" fines of Rs.5000 each!N maybe,an airconditioned AC cell,with teak wood beds,where they would have to spend 730 days of their life!!!
We are very lucky to have a business system,which still functions with the Indian Contract Act of 1885!Companies Act of 1956!!N we live in 2010!!Hurray!
We are very lucky to have an "Efficient","Well Organised" Bureaucracy (Stop Laughing guys!,Control) which swears by the name of Bribes,one which processes your requests,documents whatever at the speed of a "Dial-up" connection,in the age of "BroadBand"!
We are very lucky to have an Opposition,which is fragile,divided & frail,with the only plus-point being the retirement age of its members has well expired,it remains to be seen when the stock is replaced by the new one!!!
If India has to strive ahead,there needs to be a revamp of our Politico-legal system,the whole setup,the organisation of youth-centric,issue based politics & Emergence of a new,powerful India!!!
If events like todays' Bharat Bandh occur again,they sure will prove to be a roadblock to India's growth!!
It is my humble request to every true Indian to fight,for what's right!To Save the nation from the hands of these corrupt officials,bureaucracy,this legal system,this political system & Raise your voice....In order for a better,wonderful India,which we would like to see on the pinnacle of the world!!!! :D
