Rahul Gandhi’s ways of Understanding the Problems

Posted by thohepou on October 3, 2009

Rahul Gandhi – a dynamic and promising Indian leader is on the right move to understand the root cause of the problem in India, which is snubbed by many politicians, civil service officers, army officers and many other leaders. One needs to appreciate and adopt his ideology of understanding the problem to solve the problem from the root. Rahul Gandhi’s ways of understanding the problems can solved any kinds of problem in this world; no problem in this world is too difficult to solve with understanding – whether Dalits, Naxalites, Insurgent or any other problems. We know that even a small problem become a critical problem when we try to solve the problem superficially without understanding the root cause of the problem. Trying to remove the problem superficially is only like trimming the branches without removing from the root of the tree.

Recently the UP Congress leaders are following Rahul Gandhi’s ways of understanding the problem; the districts units of the congress have organized community lunches and held conventions on 2nd October – Mahatma Gandhi’s birth Anniversary; to understand the problems of the Dalits and make them aware of the central welfare schemes launched for them. Rahul Gandhi stayed in Bundelkhand and Amethi to study and familiar himself about the problems. He also stayed in the home of a Dalit in Shravasti district and interacted with the people in the district to assess the problem and to have better understanding the problem at the grass root level.

P.B. Salim, an IAS officer is another exceptional officer in India who is trying to understand the problem of the tribal people in India. He stayed in ten tribal settlements in Lalgarh (WB), eating and dancing with them and even sleeping in their thatched huts. He said that the best way to defeat Maoist is by bringing development to tribal region. (ENS)

We have the long pending problem of J&K but only a few politicians try to understand the root cause and problem. We also have the northeastern insurgent problems but for the last few decades, the central government is trying to solve the problem only superficially; sitting in Delhi without understanding the root cause of the problem cannot remove the problem from the root. Today we have another great problem coming up from the Naxalites but the central government is not considering seriously in untangling the problem last one decade and now the problem is gradually blooming with beautiful flowers. Is it necessary to strike the problem with the might of the Indian army or with the state police personnel forces? Can’t we go Rahul Gandhi’s ways of understanding the problem to solve amicably? The more we come to interact and deliberate with the people, the more we understand better the problem and we can solve the problem from the root.

Rahul Gandhi’s way of understanding the problem will have a great impact in every problem and every concern authority – may be in the central government, state or block level may need to adopt his ways of understanding and try to solve the problem from the root. Solving the problem superficially will never end the problem and it will continue to exist and develop further unless the problem is removed from the root.

MNS Screams and Terrorists Celebrate in India

Posted by thohepou on November 24, 2008

Raj Thackeray was from Shiv Sena party but due to hunger of political power and leadership – he had deflected from Shiv Sena and formed a new party known as Maharashtra Nanirman Sena (MNS). MNS is a very new party as compares to Congress and BJP but it is old as Shiv Sena since the ideology of MNS is same as Shiv Sena – and it’s just a copycat as told by Shiv Sena Chief – Uddhav Thackeray.

Different politicians have different ideology – some politicians want to become popular through their notoriety – by means of vandalizing the government properties and creating nuisance to the public, while others want to become popular through their non-violence – with their altruistic work for the people. We have the liberty to propagate our own ideology but an ideology and thirst of power like Hitler is destructive to the people. India has its own constitution and we expect every citizen to respect and obey at the same time having the full rights to enjoy everything under the constitution of India.

If we go according to the constitution of India – every Indian has every right to work and migrate to other states except only those states where there are special conditions. If the MNS is having problem with the outsiders for grasping the peanut salary job and other petty works, and difficult to compete with them, they may need to work harder like those Biharis and UP workers in Maharashtra. Maharashtra is one of the most developed states in India but if the MNS thinks that they cannot compete with those workers from one of the least developed states like Bihar and UP – they may need to have a special reservation like SC/ST for the Marathi speaking people. But the MNS is just underestimating the caliber of the sons of the soil through their violence creating in the state. Earlier the Shiv Sena had tried to drive out the Gujaratis and South Indian and now the MNS wants to drive out the north Indian from Maharashtra. In Assam also the Assamese want to reserve the job for the Assamese and they want to drive out the Hindi-speaking people. There was also problem in Manipur with the Hindi-speaking people. While these incidents happening in Assam and Manipur seem to be the copycat of Shiv Sena ideology and they seem to be emboldened due to earlier Shiv Sena driving out the Gujaratis and south Indian from Maharashtra. So just think – what will be happening in India in the near future if this kind of regionalism commence in all the regions of India.

MNS and outsiders in Mumbai – but who are the outsiders in Mumbai? If the MNS is having problem with the outsiders then they themselves are also the problem. The Mumbai history shows, “only the Koli are the original settlers in Mumbai” (Anil Dharkar). Today if the MNS are laughing to glory – the terrorists group of India (TGI) also celebrating together with them for vandalizing the govt. properties, bashing up the North Indian and trying to create a regional division in India. The news of killing Rahul Raj and Dharamdev Rai in Maharashtra due to MNS related anti-north Indian campaign may be a good news to the TGI since that is the starting point of breaking the unity and integration in India. The TGI also may be laughing to glory with Bajrang Dal, RSS and VHP for torturing, raping and killing the innocent Christians in India not because of they hate the Christians but India will gradually break into different segments like Muslim, Hindu and Christians with the help of those Hindu fundamentalists.

MNS must be happy to learn the poor and helpless North Indians packing their things and leaving Maharashtra with their empty stomach. But it is ironical that the poor and helpless laborer, taxi driver, rickshawala etc were the main target sparing the rich and well settled North Indian in Maharashtra. Why the film actors and businessmen from North Indian were spared? The glory of MNS successful campaign against the north Indian must be celebrating together by TGI as the India is gradually going to disintegrate very soon with such kind of campaign and there can be sovereignty to all the States of India or have a sovereign States of India as – South Indian States, North Indian States, Western Indian States and North Eastern States of India. MNS have the other means to demonstrate against the north Indian but taking the law into their hand only shows their immaturity in dealing the different sensitive issues.

There are many politicians in India who are working for the unity and integration of India. But MNS leaders seem want to create a separate region of Maharashtra. The shortsighted MNS leaders may no see the problems to come in the future because of their present pretty desire of self-glorification but the visionary Terrorists groups of India must be happy with the works of MNS, RSS, VHP, Shiv Sena and Bajrang Dal. The TGI or enemy of India has a great vision that gradually the India can break into Hindu, Muslim, Christian, J&K and North Eastern States. But do the shortsighted leaders of VHP, RSS, Shiv Sena, MNS and Bajrang Dal have the visionary like the terrorists group of India? The TGI must be laughing and celebrating as the North Indians are leaving Maharashtra and many Christians were tortured, rape and killed not because of they hate the north Indian or Christians but Indian is slowly going to disintegrate through this kind of hate campaign and killing.

J&K and North East are not far away from breaking away from main stream of India when the fundamentalists of Hindu leaders and MNS want to have division on region and religion. Which is more serious threat to India’s unity and integration – TGI or north Indian, TGI or Christians or TGI or Muslims? Instead of killing and hate campaign – all the leaders should first fight against the terrorists in India. We also need to fight against the terrorists in India instead of fighting for petty jobs available in the State.

It would be difficult to remove all the outsiders from Mumbai but if they really want to remove the outsiders from Mumbai then they may need to take up some steps like –Unlinking all the railways routes from Maharashtra to other states, stop plying all the flights playing from other states to Maharahstra and stop investing in Maharashtra all those industrialists and MNC from other states and move out from the State. When all the above infrastructures are removed then not a single outsider will be able to come to Maharashtra. But let’s also think of a State without those infrastructures, laborer, taxidriver, rickshawala, Safaiwal etc. According to different writers, the north Indians are more industrious and more productive in their work as compare to the sons of the soil. However if the MNS want those less productive workers with higher wages – there will be not other option except to accept those local workers.

There are many people (esp.TGI) who want to bring disunity and disintegration into religion, regional or cultural region of India. Therefore the presents MNS works and other Hindu fundamentalists’ leaders can play a very important role to disintegrate and bring disunity in India. The MNS should know that when they laugh to glory for their successful plan to remove the north Indian – there are also TGI who are indirectly supporting from their heart – the ideology of MNS to divide into regionalism. When the Hindu fundamentalists attack, rape and kills the innocent Christians in different states, they may be happy too. However there are also TGI who are celebrating together with them for their successful work and their ideology to break the India into religious group of India. All those political and religious leaders who are fighting for petty desire for self-glorification need to realize that it will greatly affect the integration of India and they should not let their enemies laugh and celebrate.
