Recently I penned down an article portraying the current
peril through which the NDA government is going through. Today the Modi
government holds a great responsibility on its shoulders, and with such a broad
and brobdingnagian majority in the Lower House of the parliament, this onus
extends further to be difficult and takes a beating to dealt with. Even the Congress government, which just
retired out of the crucial post of ruling the nation, knows every bit about the
contemporary plight of the whole country.
As of January 2014, the inflation is the country was at one
of its highest at 5.05% , while according to the Planning Commission of India,
which wittily lowered down the poverty line rather than uplifting the poor
under the UPA rule, around 21.9% of the India’s total population is under the
below poverty line. Unemployment figures range high expostulating the works
from the previous government. As of January 2010, around 27 Indian youths
continue to be preyed by the demon of unemployment. What’s more is that, India continues
to suffer a fiscal deficit of $88 Billion (4.8% of India’s total GDP). All these
factors continue to manipulate the story of India Inc. for worse making the
current condition through which the whole nation’s poor as well as middle class
people are suffering completely pitiable.
But one thing amid all such factors and problems that continue
to hover over my mind, dismaying me is the witticism that today’s political
parties are showing against the current government. The UPA government itself
made one of the worst blunders ever made by any government and continued to be
shrouded by the disastrous catastrophic events which marked the dusk of the
grand old party of India, but notwithstanding knowing all the ins and outs of
the problem through which the current government is suffering its busy decrying
the new government.
Recently the Congress party lashed out on the current
Finance Minister Mr. Arun Jaitley and Food Minister Ram Vilas on the current
rise in the prices of commodities.
This made my mind propel its thinking process to find out
the real reason behind all such things.
Rajiv Gandhi, the former Prime Minister of India, once made
a statement that “Farmers sell their grown potatoes at the rate of Rs 2 and
then the potatoes go through all the processes like transports, middle men etc.
to be sold finally at the rate of Rs. 15” but unfortunately the previous UPA
government could not check the problem, or I should write that all the previous
Congress government have just procrastinated the matter for the worse. Till now
even after more than 66 years of independence, the party which ruled the nation
for more than 50 years has not been able to do anything to check this problem.
The commodities undergo a huge increment in their prices from farmers to the
consumers. Today, India’s unlettered farmers are being exploited excessively.
Our famers continue to die out of starvation which the middlemen and the
agencies continue to put profits in their pockets. Till now no government has
thought about doing anything for that, so how can the congress blame BJP and
the NDA government for the present inflation.
Inflation also continued to be a huge problem during the
reign of UPA-2. It reached new heights smashing all he heights and at last
ousted the government of UPA. Now the UPA knows how hard it is to tackle and
check inflation in such a big country. Prices of many commodities are set at
international level and our government can’t do much on such things. For
example due to the present Iraq crisis today, prices of oil, petrol and diesel
are definite to rise up. While on the other hand prices of things like onion
and other edible things continue to rise just because of illegitimate hoarding
by touts and lack of storage area. In the previous 66 years of independences,
we have not been able to provide our farmers with storage area. And this is the
reason why every year we continue to shed out our stale grains while on the
other hands, our farmers, the parents of the crops continue to die out of
hunger. According to Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IME), India wastes 21
million tonnes of grains every year, making thousand die out a life of pity.
What a ridiculous and embarrassing thing! So much shameful that we can’t even
provide support or lend a helping hand to our people. Disgusting!
This entire phenomenon can be applied to the problem of
electricity too. Today most of the power plants in the whole nation continue to
underperform and produce less, not because they can’t but because they don’t
have enough requisites in order to transport the electricity to the house of
the people. Actually we are not even having enough wires to service the made
electricity into action. And this definitely makes every Indian curse his/her
bad fortune.
These things are difficult to be dealt with but we could
have overcome that thing if our previous government would have been better, but
the main problem is that the nation lacked even a single leader for the last 10
years.
Today the whole nation needs to do something, something for
the sake of change, something different rather than blaming the newly elected
government, something that makes a change come out.
Jai hind, jai Bharat
Jai ma Bharti
