Re: [IAC#RG] BJP as corrupt as Congress

If our son or a daughter in our family goes astray due to wrong parenting, we as parents patiently through effort and practice bring them to the right path which gets developed with continuous and never ending improvement. Give them two years before becoming judgemental in two months. We all would have then done justice to our own wisdom. At least one thing is sure, we are not going to get free food, free water, free power and instead we would get work and get paid to buy our needs rather than live on govt alms. Jai Hind.

I am no admiretr of any political party but this party has been in power for two months. the long list given byt Mr Kapoor is due to sins of omission and commission committed over ten years. For example, double digit food inflation of two years cannot be wished away wiht a magic wand. Hoarders should be caught and stocks sent to market; imports should be encouraged; agricultural production should be restructured so that more fruits, vegetable, eggs, etc, that the Indian consumer (even the poorest) now want, are more freely available. Above all government's unbridled expenditure leading to record fiscal deficits, hsould be brought down. All the actions will take two years to fructify. Meanwhile tariffs that were kept subsdized by the UPA (rail fares and freights, prices of petrol, diesel, LPG, fertilizer s. electricity, etc) must go up, and cause one-time price increases. Thousands of crores spent on social schemes with huge thefts and wrong targeting, Amust be made more efficient, and the expenditures must be cut.
   Let us not forget that earlier sins cannot just be washed away by a "prayaschitta" of electing a new government.

No one disputes that actions and time are required to fix the situation. What one is saying is that the required and appropriate actions are not being taken. For instance, the real issues relating to galloping increase in food prices is productivity and supply management, or rather the lack of it. India's typical per acre productivity is only about 1/3rd the international averages. As for supply management, a good 30-40% of the crops perish due to absence of proper storage-transportation facilities, and the farmer typically gets only 10-20% of the final selling price, the rest is digested by various middlemen. The solutions lie in simultaneous and aggressive multi-pronged actions: at least 1/2 million micro-watersheds, reliable seeds, huge number of additional storages and improved transportation, formation of marketing cooperatives by farmers and villagers, conversion of produce to pre-cooked and packaged foods, abolition of all taxes and levies on
packaged foods products, etc., etc. But there is no sign of such policy initiatives.
There are other related issues to the inflation logjam: the extremely high cost of governance arising out of the highly overpaid bureaucracy, politicians, and the "perks" they extract from the citizenry. The grinding, dysfunctional, and non-functional, and often dishonest, judicial and administrative systems, arising out of their total non-accountability (except on paper). These can be rectified by appropriate downsizing of their salary and perks, stopping their free-loadings, making them accountable in a quick, meaningful and effective manner, linking of salary reviews and increases to performance targets (not of the type, "education for all by 2050" or "electricity for all by 2064", but of the type "70 literacy within 2 years, and 95% literacy within 5 years", and "improving the country's corruption index from 155 to 125 within 1 year, and to 95 within 5 years", etc.). Of course, part of fixing such problems is to fix the personnel by way of effective
periodic blood letting by weeding out the corrupt-criminal elements by way of summary dismissal. There are some noises about increasing the number of judges, but the announcements are puny and not-multi directional.
Of course there are many other serious issues, tens of thousands of excess babus, shortage of (trained, honest, and competent) police, judges, doctors, engineers, ...... What are the many ministers there for?

I have rarely read such nonsense as
written often by Mr Roy. I suppose if I had his mind I would
say he was in fact confessing, that he is someone's puppet,
and could sort out economic problems that require actions
and time to take effect. SLRao
