Contradictory India

As many as 16,000 Government employees will be withdrawn from their services and more than 5-year-old vacant posts will be abolished in the Central Government. It takes more than a year to conduct and complete to fill up the vacant posts in different categories of B and C grades. This matter is contradictory to the unemployed youths of the country. Again, the existence of caste-based reservation facilities provided in the Government services, allocation of reserved seats in different educatiol institutes with concession of fees and marks, is against a policy of a caste-free society. To add more, it is the caste-based fee structure in getting the Government tender works too. I have nothing to say if the facilities are provided to the economically poor people of the country. I doubt, whether we are encouraging a caste-based society indirectly. These two examples will indicate that there is no dedication for the uplift of economic condition of the actual poor of society except contradictions with double standard policies.

Prime Minister rendra Modi's Deliberation and Body Language

It is observed that Prime Minister rendra Modi did not move as Prime Minister while replying to a debate on the Motion of Thanks on the President's address in Parliament in the Budget session. The champion of rhetoric, Prime Minister rendra Modi, has knowledge how to entice the voters during the time of election; he knows the trade of election campaign well. But it is sad for the country that sometimes Modi forgets that he is country's Prime Minister and not of the BJP. Straggly enough, a Prime Minister of the country visited Tripura  twice within a week for political purpose. It is a rare case which probably never had happened earlier in the political history of the State. Even in  iuguration of some projects / schemes, Modi forgets that he is the country's Prime Minister. Modi is in a mood that does not suit a PM. His body language  also seems not like PM at that time. We have heard as well as seen versions of the then Prime Minister Atal Behari Bajpayee, and  Prime Ministers like V.P.Sing, Chanda Sekhar, Rajiv Gandhi, rasimiha Rao, Dr.Manmohon Singh. Their speeches are quite polite and sobre.

However, no doubt that Prime Minister Modi has taken up several good steps for the country viz. GST, abolition of teen talaq, Dhan Jan Jojo, Cash less transaction for instance.

Ban Congress

After going through the Batla House encounter in details in some of the leading news channels recently one cannot think a century-old political party can stoop to such a low. Even if we believe half of the story that was shown in the news channels it was shocking. Just to appease a particular religious community the then UPA government under Manmohan Singh remote controlled by UPA Chairperson Sonia Gandhi tried to conceal many hard facts and put all the blames on a particular group. The Congress needs new leaders with fresh thinking and discard the present one indulging in dirtiest of politics. Else, one is forced to call for a banning the Congress.
