It’s true. In current political system, leader who is leading a particular place ( either town/state/country ) has to be strong in all aspects especially dealing with people who are against to him in his own team otherwise problem starts there. It doesn’t matter for them will that help people? It matters if it helps me and my family!
Currently we are seeing an agitation for separate from Andhra Pradesh, which is a state for Telugu speaking people. Why separate state? Is the question most of the common man thinks when someone says I am for separate state and fighting for people who wants it. Good. Then other side of people asks why do you want?
Then
1. It’s very backward place
2. We don’t have proper “reservation”s in jobs (still reservations in 2010?).
3. Government is not giving funds to this area. Complete development is happening to one place.
4. e.t.c…
I believe, there is no place called backward. It’s created by persons who are representing that place. Who stops him for fighting for funds? For every place, government allocates money. It’s responsibility of that people representative (MLA or MP) to spend for good cause. When someone says its backward place then people of that region should come forward and asks what are you doing for that? We are seeing wonders in the world where people are building islands so what’s not possible if we want to do something. Some part of my education happened in Telangana region. My father was working in this region during that time. He went to PV Narasimha Rao’s village in Karimnagar on his office work. He surprised! Place is not at all looks like a former prime minister’s village. A person from that place says he didn’t do anything for his village. But he has done for country, so we can excuse him here (still not!). This is one example which gives that being separate state is not answer for making development. It has to be there in leaders mind to do that. Recently NDTV organized a debate on Telangana movement in Hyderabad with name “Hyderabad Blues”. In that, one guy asked K Rama Rao, son of KCR, what your father has done to Karimnagar/Siddipet/Mahaboob Nagar for development. He told my father elected to fight for separate Telangana so he is fighting for it. Surprised again! It’s not me and you also know very well about this. We do discuss daily in our Tea meetings. Raising voice against this is required when system is going out of control like today.
Then leaders talk about job opportunities. Now, most of the jobs are in private sector and it will be! We have to ensure proper educational system is there in villages, towns, cities so that students will be ready for that. I studied in a private school in Pedda Palli, Karimnagar. It is very good school. Warangal also has good colleges and schools. As I know about these two places I can say it’s good place for education and students are smart. Government has to ensure infrastructure to develop a place, if it doesn’t have like in case of Adilabad, Srikakulam and Anantpur districts. Now we see very good infrastructure growth so ensuring there is a proper money allocation to your place it is possible to create opportunities.
You take any point, root cause points to public representative and people responsibilities.
We are seeing bandh and violence since last 30 days in State. Politicians are playing with people money. I saw news that NRIs are doing Pada Yatra for separate state. What man? You studied with AP tax payer’s money and spent some time in foreign country and coming back as there is an opportunity for you to grow here to make money again. In that, two NRIs are son and daughter-in-law of a politician. Ministers who are from Telangana region are telling that they have resigned for telangana and sent a fax to Mrs Sonia Gandhi in a letter with all our signs. Mrs. Gandhi, I guess, gets some thousand like this daily. I don’t think she/her office looks into all these. If they really want to resign then they have to give that to CM or Governor. Why are you trying to make people fool (I am sorry, we are already)? Moreover they are representing a state not region. If they want they can resign for MLA not for ministry (I think still they can continue for 6 months even they are not MLAs).
Don’t think that this guy is probably from Andhra region that’s why it smells like that. I have born in Nizamabad and complete primary education done in Telangana region except 2 years. If someone is fighting for right cause then I support not for un-employed politicians.

good thoughts.
ReplyDeleteHi Vijaya,
ReplyDeleteMy opinions on this matter are not as clear cut as yours. Especially when you are talking about stuff like right wrong justice etc. "The govt is a reflection of its people" especially in a democratic country. Though you may be enraged at the way things are the fact remains that people want it and whether or not it is "right" is of the least importance. Any form of order whether it be govt, religion or society is based on the perceptions of right or wrong of the majority and history is a witness to this. My intention is not to argue against your opinon but to enlighten you that everything in our day to day life is based on the same principle and is as "ambiguous" as the arguments presented by you.
