Narendra Modi govt completes six months: Top 5 reasons why I am starting to like Congress after six months of BJP
By Sandipan A @indiacom | November 24, 2014 11:21 AM
A person was passing through a street in Punjab and there were some people doing Bhangra with dhol, dancing away to glory. They were celebrating, dancing and having fun. The person was puzzled, he asked them – why are you celebrating? Are you drinking alcohol? One of the person replied, yes we are celebrating, our friend will be getting the booze any moment.
The joke is that even before alcohol has arrived, the people have started celebrating. The same is the case with BJP and Narendra Modi Bhakts. The celebrations began even before Modi won and even before 5 years have passed – Modi followers are claiming what he will do in his second term. The celebration is continuous and questions are none. The people who are asking questions are suddenly traitors.
But the big surprise is that most of us hated Congress and its corrupt regime – and wanted them to lose. And most of us were very happy that corrupt Congress government was out. Now after six months of government of BJP – in some terms Congress was better than BJP:
1. Faffing, shouting and celebrating all the time with hardly any achievements. The only achievement of the current BJP government has been the diplomat skills of Mr. Modi. Otherwise the economic situation is as bad as before – the INR has come back close to 62 for a USD and trade deficit is rising. There have been communal riots in Meerut, Pune and even Delhi, with Trilokpuri under curfew for over a month. Also the terrible situation after the arrest of Rampal near Hissar. There is a saying in Hindi, which is no good for BJP followers “Dayanatdaar logon ko elan ki zaroorat nahi padti”
2. You cannot criticize the Prime Minister Narendra Modi in BJP government. During the Congress regime you could have criticized MMS, called him any names and it was ok. If you criticize Mr. Modi, you are called an anti-national, anti-Hindu and other names. When Rajdeep Sardesai criticized Modi, people were shouting, how can you criticize your own Prime Minister? But it was ok to criticize Manmohan Singh, when he was the Congress PM. The Congress was far more democratic than BJP in terms of taking criticism.
3. The democracy is further challenged in BJP government – children were pushed by schools – who were in turn pushed by government to attend Modi’s speech in the afternoon at 4 PM. As per operation “Swacch Bharat” – people was pushed by BJP workers to clean the “already clean” streets. BJP workers in Delhi come and push people to clean the streets. What kind of rouge and pushy operation is this? Democracy was not as challenged as this in the Congress government.
4. Somehow Sanskrit, Ganga and Hindi is going to solve all problems. Why clean only Ganga, why not Yamuna and tens of other rivers. Why there is a ministry to clean up Ganga and not other rivers? And pushing in Hindi and Sanskrit in text books of schools make a big difference in our lives? Again this is less democratic than the Congress era.
5. Corruption, poverty, budget deficit and subsidies are equally bad. The black money is not here, the prices are high – the names of black money holders are not even released. Nothing has changed and there is celebration every day by BJP followers. At least Congress was not celebrating every day, they were hiding for cover.
Getting US President Barack Obama on Republic Day 2015 is not an achievement. We need to get the INR down from 61.8 for a USD.
