HOW CAN OUR MINISTERS SPEND LAKHS PER DAY TO LIVE IN FIVE STARS? (9th Sept)

HOW CAN OUR MINISTERS (SM KRISHNA & SHASHI THAROOR) SPEND LAKHS PER DAY TO LIVE IN FIVE STARS, WHEN THEY EARN JUST THOUSANDS IN A MONTH??? PM SHOULD PROBE ABOUT THEIR THREE-MONTH STAY IN FIVE-STAR HOTELS? THE NATION WANTS ANSWERS MR. PM… (9th Sept 2009 – 1000 hrs)
On 7th September, I raised the point in my blog – “There are various questions that the ruling government has to answer regarding this grave situation of our countrymen… while they don’t hesitate to talk endlessly about economic growth in five-star hotel conferences… why are they shutting their eyes from the real picture of India???” – Pranab Mukherjee on 8th asked SM Krishna and Shashi Tharoor to evict their five-star living accommodation and stop all five-star hotel conferences hereafter…
Now the most surprising part of the whole episode is that these two ministers have shamelessly revealed that they were staying on their own expense at ITC’s Maurya Sheraton and Taj Mahal Hotels… Now will Sonia Gandhi, PM and the Finance Minister please tell us as to how a minister of their government, who earn in thousands per month spend lakhs of rupee per day from their pockets for more than three long months? TRULY HONEST POLITICIANS ONE MUST SAY! Or else truly CORRUPTED! The later seems to be true than the fiction. Will the truth be revealed? NO CHANCE BOSS!
Who was paying the money for their stay? Obviously it was the government because if the ministers were paying on their own why did the Finance Minister bothered and asked them to vacate the hotels immediately? COMMON SENSE! And our over-the-top news channels’ anchors and editors do not have at all, to raise such a simple question of their actions…
Corruption starts from the top end and flows freely to the bottom end because when the top leaders and ministers are corrupt, it is but obvious that they cannot stop the lower officials and so on… While the government doesn’t have enough funds to support the miseries of drought-hit poor farmers in the country, they can spend crores per month on just two ministers to live in five-star hotels… while various news channels were trying to overdo each other by having various debate live about this issue, they have surely forgotten the main issue of FARMERS IN UTTAR PRADESH ARE SELLING THEIR WIVES TO LIVE ANOTHER DAY…
When I read Shashi Tharoor’s quotes – “I need two things daily that Kerala House doesn’t offer – a gym and some privacy.” – it surely made me laugh because here is a minister who lives in five-star hotel just because he needs a gym and privacy daily. How silly our ministers can be… it proves. SM Krishna was more vocal about the unpleasant situation he had to face courtesy Finance Minister and said, “I will continue to make the same kind of private arrangements till I get my house fit enough to be occupied.” Mr. Minister, does it take three months for a Foreign Minister of the ruling government to get his house ready? If you cannot get your house ready in three months, how will you perform your duties for the country in a five-year-term? When such a small issue can take months, imagine our minister’s incapability to handle multiple issues of the nation… truly so, because when a small serious issue like – Drought-hit poor farmers are selling their wives to live another day – is overlooked and cannot be taken care of, how will our Home Minister stop the terrorist to attacks? Mr. PM, how about catching some big fish of your own government first to lead by example for the nation to follow…
Truly a SHAMEFUL ACT! And they are talking big about government’s advocating austerity… It is all but a crap… We will have to wait what the NCW has to say about their 48-hours Probe on the big issue of Farmers Selling their wives in Bundelkhand… Will the government act and save the miseries of these affected farmers? Or will it continue to finance some more ministers to live in five-star hotels???
