Poor In India Starve As Politicians Steal $14.5 Billion Of Food

[notsuperstitious]

Fact - Indian common masses vote these politicians in. Mayawati and Mulayam take turns, YRS's son gets popular support despite being openly corrupt.

We get what we deserve. A Bunch of gun totting revolutionaries will not change anything overnight, revolution itself goes through a period of extreme suffering. Its not worth giving up our 65 years gains in the hope of a miracle.

As Shyama Ayas said - Mao's land after the great leap and cultural revolution and what not has given up on Maoism. Thats not the solution. The solution is education, personal excellence. Long road, but guarantees better quality of citizens, that guarantees a better government.

Starving people consume rotten rice dumped by railways in Odisha

CUTTACK: Hundreds of starving people dug up riverbed to retrieve rice which was declared unfit even for animal consumption and dumped by railway authorities near here at Jagatpur.

The poor were seen taking home bags full of dirt-filled rice even as the district authorities put the onus on the railways.

"It was the responsibility of the railways and Food Corporation of India (FCI) the original owners of the rice, to ensure that the damaged foodstuff is destroyed properly so that it doesn't find its way to the kitchens of the people or are consumed even by animals," a district civil supply official said adding the local administration had no role in it.

Although, people had even sold the retrieved rice at Rs 10 per kg in slum areas, district collector Girish S N when contacted on Thursday night said he was not aware of any such developments.

"I have not received any such information yet. (If found true) We will definitely stop it," Girish said.

A wagon-load of rice belonging to FCI had arrived here in December 2011 from Kesinga in Kalahandi district.

Upon examination, the quality control team of the FCI had certified that all the 1200 hundred bags of rice, weighing over 600 quintals were unfit for human consumption.

Since the FCI had indented the rice in April 2010 and had booked the railway wagon for direct transportation of the stock from Kesinga to Cuttack, it took more than 20 months for the railways to cover the distance of 350 km.

Since the foodstuff was insured, railways paid the damage to FCI and took the responsibility to destroy the damaged foodstuff.

"The manner in which the railways disposed of the damaged foodstuff was also outrageous, which invites stringent action against the erring officials," senior CPM leader Subash Singh said.

Stealing grain from starving families is the same as human rights abuse and murder. They should all be executed.... not to mention the politicians that actually did murder to keep on thieving.

All the politicians who found corrupt shouldn't sent to jail, they all should be hanged to death. Yes, we are in a banana republic and expecting strong law against corruption from the people who involves in corruption on daily basis.

 

[Fanling Monk]

Corruptions by government officials are the biggest hindrances for a country in term of economical and social developments. China has been taking drastic actions to stem out such behaviors in the last few years and those efforts are continuing and I hope India can do the same, if not more.
