AUSTERITY MY FOOT! ALL THESE ARE MERE PUBLICITY STUNT OF THE CONGRESS FOR STATE ASSEMBLY POLLS TO FOOL THE NATION ONCE AGAIN (12th Sept 2009, 1630 Hrs

AUSTERITY MY FOOT! ALL THESE ARE MERE PUBLICITY STUNT OF THE CONGRESS FOR STATE ASSEMBLY POLLS TO FOOL THE NATION ONCE AGAIN (12th Sept 2009, 1630 Hrs)

All these mindless media halla on the Austerity of Congress are mere publicity stunt for the coming State Assembly Polls in October… It is common sense but our so-called intelligent media as always goes overboard to build up the image of the politicians whenever there are elections in the near future… while there are so many serious issues that has plagued the nation, the media will only highlight those that will fetch them higher TRPs… how each one of us has sold one’s conscience in the name of being powerful and important, is the real tragedy of our country…

It is really a case of using one’s COMMON SENSE as to why only after there were reports did Pranab Mukherjee asked Tharoor and Krishna to leave the five-star accommodations… while since the last three months, they were having meetings, private conferences, entertaining guests at these hotels??? While Mukherjee says – “Austerity measures were always there but were never taken and acted upon seriously,” – says the double standard of the ruling government. Surprisingly, none of the media has debated on these issues more seriously… Mukherjee and Sonia Gandhi woke up only after three months to suddenly issue measuers of austerity??? Wow! Hats off to them and the electronic media… who are diverting from the real issues of the nation…

Wastage of tonnes of food grains because of not having storage facilities in many states is the best example of callousness of the country’s all ruling governments (let it Congress or BJP) since the last 62 years… While the Congress government can grant 350 crores for a statue to be built in Sea for the foreigners to gain tourist’s money, sadly, they have never bothered to have build proper shed for food grains to be stored in a proper manner??? Is this what AUSTERITY is all about since our Independence in 1947???

While there are farmers and families suffering and surviving floods and drought year after year, the Congress ministers are feeling the pinch of traveling in economy class??? Why no relief reaches the poor farmers and their families in time, before they commit suicide and die of poverty and hunger? Is this what Congress Austerity is all about???

While terrorists from the neighbouring country come and shoot hundreds of innocent people in Mumbai, there was not even a speedy response from our leaders to overcome these dreaded killers…. Yet, when a minister’s helicopter goes missing, the Home Minister Chidambaram is quick to send ISRO Satellite, Sukhoi fighters, number of helicopters and even goes to ask help from the American government for the search mission… And wonder of wonders, when Barkha Dutta ask him why there was no quick action during the 26/11 attacks… the minister coolly blamed the then Home Minister saying… “I became the Home Minister after the 26/11 so I cannot really say why it didn't happen...” How strange that he was so quick to blame the failure of quick action during the 26/11 attack on his own colleague to save himself. But it was shocking that Barkha didn’t asked him that it was their own government who was ruling then and now??? Hundreds of common man will die and these corrupt ministers will not even bother about them but will not leave any stone unturned when a minister goes missing… Is this what Austerity of the Congress is all about???

While there are poor drought-hit farmers and families trying to survive just another day by selling their wives… the High Court is concerned about why the jail convicts cannot be given Chicken Biryani and Non-veg food? Actually the HC Judges should be commended for their concern of the dreaded convicts and they should provide all the jail inmates special luxurious five-star accomodations, after all they are also humans... Wow! Is this Austerity of the Congress???

First Rahul Gandhi wooed the poor villagers in Bundelkhand and other parts of the Uttar Pradesh before election and media coverage of him working with villagers in hot sun by fooling one and all… he has not even cared to visit the same villagers at the time of adversities… and now he is doing the same in Tamilnadu and fooling the state poor villagers with his charm and false promises… Is this what Congress Austerity is all about?

Well, it is high time when the nation should wake up and teach these politicians Austerity is all about not being corrupt and serving the nation with a clear and honest conscience… And we all know these corrupt politicians have lived their lives and sleep every day on the plush beds build on several dead bodies and blood of the poor innocent citizen… that is what Austerity is all about for these khadi-clad vicious species!!!
