BTN: Vishwanath Pratap Singh: india's most Selfish Prime minister, who changed India's political equations.

Former PM V.P.Singh's sudden rise and fall in Indian politics & his desperateness to cling to PM's chair  by invoking 'Mandal Commission'  is worth remembering. While Congress is credited with, opening the SC/ST reservation pandora's box, Mr. V.P.Singh  is been credited with screwing the 'Indian merit' by his 27% OBC reservation.

While the Mandal messiah screwed up his political career, he is credited with emerging of more selfish regional leaders like (him) Lalu, Paswan, Mulayam Singh and few other pseudo-secular leaders. Before him, Indira Gandhi's congress was the sole champion of secularism & after fall of VP Singh's Government the opportunistic 'Janata Dal' was disintegrated to BJD (Orissa), RJD(Bihar),JD(s) (Karnataka), LJP(Bihar),Samta Party (BIHAR) etc.

These opportunistic regional outfits, further divided India to grab all Muslim/OBC/Sc/St votes & has been enjoying the good will of Muslims and their reservation beneficiaries; with one agenda - defeat the communal forces. When Sopreme court advised them to remove the 'creamy layer'  (OBC whose income is approximately  > 2 Lakh per annum) from reservations, they simply negated that advise by changing the definition of creamy layer ( OBC > 4 lakhs). Their allegiance of their OBC voters must not shift - what a social justice ?


Some people, who personally  benefited from Reservation, by the reservation shortcuts - shifted their allegiance from Congress to these more selfish parties & congress is screwed up. The Arrogance of Congress party is shattered & reduced to minority.

In the history of  Parliamentary democracy, V.P.Singh had fallen from grace of every one; even god didn't like his selfish social justice. Apparently, the curse of all Mandal-self-immolated youths
turned him to a 'fallen' person suffering from  incurable diseases like Kidney failures/Cancer . No one respected him, while another selfish PM Deva Gowda is still getting some respect because of his base.

Before his demise, which didn't get any electronic media coverage because of Mumbai terrorist seize,  last time he tried to mediate between CPI(M) and Mamta Banarjee in Singur-NANO issue; such unsolicited mediation was not appreciated by any one. That was a flop.

It is interesting though that after his demise, his former friends/disciples, who never cared for him during his lonely days, are coming with some good words; but the lonely and fallen V.P.Singh, must be ashamed by the kind of selfish  leaders he created , for which the country and people are paying heavy prices.

Some may not like the following comment. But, those who are selfish, have to go from this world with absolutely no respect and no good words from any one. Mr. V.P.Singh may be claiming to be the 'Mandal Messihah' publically, but during his lonely 'fallen' days, he must have realized - "What division he had created & what kind of   Frankenstein's (Lalus, Mulayams, Paswans) he has created.

Bofors - the less we talk, that is better. His election promise rhetorics were never materialized.

The only party , which can't forget Mr. V.P.Singh is 'Congress Party' - which has been reduced to a minority since 1989.

As a Prime Minister Mr. Singh was a big flop; but he will be remembered as the greatest political game changer in Indian political history, who left the Indian National Congress at the mercy of  political jokers; created more opportunity for regional political outfits, by his congress-onslaught.

Here is a news.. don't laugh - the leaders who are praising - don't mean it.

Bhubaneswar, Nov 28(IANS) Orissa assembly Friday adjourned for the day to mourn the death of former prime minister Vishwanath Pratap Singh who died Thursday in New Delhi after battling kidney ailment for several years.The house observed a minute's silence after few members spoke about the contribution of the 77-year-old leader who fought relentlessly against corruption.

"It is an irreparable loss to the nation," said Orissa Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik.

"The nation will remember his (V.P. Singh) contribution," said J.B. Patnaik, leader of the opposition and former chief minister.

[madad-bihar-2008] Fw: Exclusive videos on Flood relief/ rehabilitation works in highly flood suffered areas

Respected Friend,

 

By visiting videos in the link given below, you can understand better ground situations of Flood Suffered areas.

I visited highly flood suffered interior areas of Madhepura, Katihar and Purnia districts. In next phase of my visit, I will visit Araria, Supaul and Khagaria districts.

I tried to upload some videos to provide information to you.

 

http://in.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=8A4E7F01D3C496AF

 

We visited more than 20 Village Councils (about 130 Villages of total population of about 200,000 people) in Madhepura, Katihar and Bhagalpur districts.

 

Name of Village Councils-

Alamnagar North, Alamnagar South, Ethari, Gangapur, Kunjauri (Bajraha), Bargao, Khaapur, Singhar, Tilakpur, East Fulauth, West Fulauth, Gosaigao, Chirauri, Nathpurrangra, Hariyo, Vijaygao, Athgama, Navada, Kajikuraiya, Kamlakund, Bhavanpura, Kaloochakbispuria, Bahtara and others.

 

I was very surprised that these are very highly suffered areas by Flood-2008 but majority of these village councils are un-touch by NGOs and Government Administrations.

Many village councils of mentioned village councils are still in high current and are facing damages from flood currents.

Thousands of people did not get primary relief and basic health care in these village councils and their villages.

 

Generally NGOs and their volunteers are working in outer areas and in places where people went after migration from flood suffered areas.

 

I do not think that RTI filings are able to put pressures on administrations. It is my personal view after visiting these areas.

 

Relief and rehabilitation works need more sincerity and commitments than works of paper/ documentation/ reports.

 

Thanks,

Love,

Vivek umrao glendenning

Britain shifts focus to Bihar: Guardian



http://bihartimes. com/Newsbihar/ 2008/Nov/ Newsbihar18Nov9. html
 
Patna, (Bihar Times): Britain will spend £825m over the next three years in aid to India to lift “hundreds of millions of people” out of poverty.

According to report in Guardian Douglas Alexander, the international development secretary now on visit to India’s poorest state, Bihar, said on Monday that despite “real strides in economic growth” there were still 828 million people living on less than $2 a day in India.

Alexander, the first UK cabinet minister to visit Bihar, said the money will help alleviate poverty in India. He was in Bihar on Tuesday to attend the inauguration ceremony of Bihar Prashashnik Sudhar Mission.

However, critics argue that British taxpayers should not be devoting the largest single sum in its aid budget to one of the fastest-growing economies in the world. They also point out in terms of national wealth, as measured by purchasing power parity, India’s economy is larger than Britain's. The Guardian report while quoting IMF’s figures show the Indian economy at $3tn compared to Britain’s $2.2tn.

However, he said: “There are more poor people in India than the whole of Africa … if you are serious as a global community about (meeting the millennium development goals) then you have to do something about the level of chronic poverty in India.”

Guardian report says that the Department for International Development says that if the United Nations' millennium development goals––which centre on alleviating extreme poverty, reducing child mortality rates and fighting disease epidemics such as Aids – are not met in India, they will not be met worldwide. India’s shortcomings are striking: 43% of children go hungry and a woman dies in childbirth every five minutes.

Alexander contrasted the rapid growth in China with India’s economic success––highlighting government figures showing that the number of poor people had dropped in the one-party communist state by 70% since 1990 but had risen in the world’s biggest democracy by 5%.

Alexander said he had become aware of the yawning gap between rich and poor in India when he visited software professionals in Bangalore, capital of the country's “Silicon Plateau”, seven years ago and saw the poor huddled just "a few hundred yards away" from the gleaming industrial parks.

41-year-old Alexander’s visit to Bihar, a state of 90 million people the size of Austria, marks a change in British policy that had until recently focused on wealthier states in India. Bihar has been seen as a symbol of poverty, lawlessness and corruption in India––bypassed by the economic boom affecting much of the rest of the country.

Characterised in The White Tiger, this year's Booker Prize winning novel
as simply the “darkness”, Bihar is India’s most rural state where two-thirds of women cannot read.

“If Bihar was a country it would be the 12th most populous and the 10th
poorest. It is a challenge,” said Alexander after visiting a poor village afflicted by leftwing violence where, flanked by gun-toting commandos, the minister talked to young mothers living in mud and brick houses

Jai Bihar: For whom and why?

In fact this post is intended to all of you GUYS who are telling JAI BIHAR n all .Of course JAI BIHAR but , isn't it the same mindless politics. JUst kindly dnt be foolish like Lalu and all politicians . He has put himself for getting attention of Biharis , who are in fact in Bihar .
But by Chanting JAI BIHAR , only you will put ur people in trouble . As the very fact is , nothing is there to say proudly JAI BIHAR.. Past n all who cares.
Not only for JOB , we biharis depends on others for Education , Health .....in fact for everything . we are bound to be migrants .
And the hell how you guys what want to gain by chanting JAI BIHAR, only hatredness will increase towards us. As i used to live , discuss wid diff-diff states people. None has positive thoughts about our state.They say why not bihar can improve ? i used to say them ,yes ur right . But there is no political will power. I again will say about Lalu , he ruined the image of Bihar . And gain he trying to gain the political base in Bihar. Please lease dnt allow him to do so. DNT BE trapped again by LALU.Only GOD can save bohar from LALU tyoe politicians.
Atleast Nitish is giving good impression of Bihar in media and always talking about betterment of Bihar . Many friends , who are from other states have Nice feeling about this Gentleman CM. And really i found in many ways he is doing his best to make sure for betterment of Bihar.

Nothing to proud , Though i tooooo have proud for My Mother land .Unlike many biharis , i never said i am from delhi or some thing they will answer. But plz dnt spread hatredness.

Instead of shouting , we shhould contribute to Our motherland in any means.

Kindly dnt be emotional.we need to work. we need to join politics and save our mother land from uneducated politicians . As the matter of fact u all must be knowing that many leaders even unable to talk properly in Hindi..what development u can expect from these fools.

Rest is in Hand of Destiny and GOD.

फिल्म सिटी स्थापना की कवायद शुरू

पटना। बिहार में फिल्म सिटी की स्थापना की कवायद शुरू हो गयी है। मुख्यमंत्री नीतीश कुमार ने सोमवार को बताया कि फिल्म सिटी का निर्माण पब्लिक प्राइवेट पार्टनरशिप (पीपीपी) मोड पर कराया जाएगा। अधिकारियों को निर्देश दिया गया है कि वे बिहार राज्य फिल्म विकास निगम को पुनर्जीवित करने का कार्यक्रम बनाएं। निगम के माध्यम से ही फिल्म सिटी का निर्माण कराया जाएगा। यह भी निर्देश
दिया गया है कि वह जगह चिन्हित करें कि कहां फिल्म सिटी बनायी जाए। पटना के अतिरिक्त गया व राजगीर में भी जमीन तलाशने को कहा गया है।

मुख्यमंत्री ने कहा कि महाराष्ट्र में विघटनकारी तत्वों के हंगामे का फिल्म सिटी की निर्माण योजना से कोई मतलब नहीं है। पूर्व से ही सरकार इस योजना पर काम कर रही थी। फिल्म स्टार शत्रुघ्न सिन्हा ने एक साल पूर्व फिल्म सिटी के संबंध में बात की थी। उसी वक्त से सरकार इस योजना पर काम कर रही थी। यहां ऐसे अधिकारी हैं जो फिल्म निर्माण के प्रबंधन की योग्यता रखते हैं और इस क्षेत्र में
काम भी कर चुके हैं। सरकार उनकी सेवा व अनुभव का उपयोग करेगी। फिल्म सिटी के निर्माण का मसविदा व जगह तय हो जाने के बाद निजी क्षेत्र को इस योजना में हिस्सेदारी के लिए आमंत्रित किया जाएगा। 

मुख्यमंत्री ने कहा कि कुछ दिन पहले उन्हें भोजपुरी फिल्म अभिनेता मनोज तिवारी ने भी फोन किया था। वह मुंबई छोड़कर आना चाहते हैं। मैंने उन्हें सलाह दी कि जमी हुई जगह नहीं छोड़नी चाहिए। वैसे अगर वह बिहार में फिल्म सिटी निर्माण को इच्छुक हैं तो उनका स्वागत है। वैसे भी फिल्म सिटी के निर्माण के पहले बिहार से जुड़े सभी फिल्मकार जिसमें प्रकाश झा, शेखर सुमन व मनोज वाजपेयी आदि शामिल
हैं, के साथ एक बैठक भी होगी।

PLIGHT OF BIHAR AND BIHARIS

All the pictures splashed across all the newspapers and television
channels of Biharis getting bashed up ruthlessly has become a common
feature and no longer evokes a shock or a feeling of disbelief. Yes,
it raises a lot of questions. And all the questions coagulate
towards a single question and that is "WHY BIHAR"? (including
Jharkhand)

In the 1950s, Sir Paul Appleby visited India. He was an expert in
public administration and came to India on an invitation by Pandit
Nehru. He went on record to say, "Bihar is the best administered
state in India and in the time to come it will become an example for
other states". Alas! Bihar lost out midway. It is high time to give
it a thought and evaluate, why and where did we lose our way?

We gave the first president to India and that doomed us. Since then,
we started considering ourselves as "INDIANS" and not "BIHARIS"
or "JHARKHANDIS". But the "REST OF INDIA" did not think the same
way. For them, we were and continue to be only Biharis, very
different from the rest of Indians.

Out if the feeling of the same "INDIANNESS", we gave for free our
rich mineral wealth to the rest of India so that their industries
can run. It was like giving our family gold or milk-giving cow to
them because we thought that they were our brothers. They took all
the minerals and despised us… hated us more and more as the time
passed.

Had we sold these minerals directly to European countries or China,
we would have been richer than Kuwait or any other country in the
world and the rest of India would have come to Bihar seeking work.
The constant and unrestricted drain of minerals is like allowing the
parasites to suck our blood... to let the traitors rape our women
and helplessly watch them having the last laugh. This was "Freight
Equalization" Policy which cheated us of our wealth and left us high
and dry.

Whenever it came to regional development, some states held the
country on ransom. They threatened and blackmailed India of
secession and in turn made the centre bow down before them and
fulfill their demands. They therefore, got the maximum benefits.
Perhaps, they have always been lucky to have powerful regional
leaders which unfortunately, Bihar has always lacked.

Punjab dangled the same threat in the 50s and the dam which was to
be built on river "Kosi" went to them as "Bhakra Nangal" project.
Biharis again sacrificed for the sake of India… for their Punjabi
brothers. But this sacrifice was not honored. The terrorists killed
innocent, defenseless and hapless Biharis in 80s who had gone to
Punjab to eke out a living for themselves.

The land of North Bihar is so fertile that we would have become
the "Rice Bowl" of the world. The "Green Revolution" which should
have happened in Bihar happened in Haryana and Punjab.

Has any state valued our sacrifices?


We kept dying of HUNGER, POVERTY, FAMINE and FLOODS but still voted
on caste lines. For us, the most important issue was being a Rajput,
Bhumihar, Yadav, Muslim, etc. But remember, the world always thought
of us as "DISPICABLE BIHARIS" who need to be wiped out of the map of
India.

Out of caste considerations, we kept on giving leaders like Laloos,
Rabris, Pappus, and Shahabbuddins and ensured that we disappear from
the radar of development.

The rest of India was too happy to see all this because out of our
destitution, we provided them very cheap labor which could run their
mills, build their homes, work in their fields, look after their
cattles, carry them on cycle rickshaws or rickshaws pulled by human
beings, and still tolerate their ill-treatment which they have
always meted out to Biharis. It started with "BIHARI" becoming an
ABUSE and this kind of treatment meted out to Biharis gradually
started giving rest of India a "PERVERSE PLEASURE"

Suddenly now, this despicable Bihari who was best fit to be at his
feet has started giving "COMPETITION" to the rest of India. Years of
struggle has hardened a Bihari and made him very competitive. This
has unnerved everybody. The violence which we now see against the
Biharis is a "NERVOUS REPRESENTATION" of the rest of India because
somewhere in their heart of hearts they know that they cannot
compete.

We always gave preference to "CASTE" while electing our leaders who
have always lacked "VISION". They have empowered themselves rather
than empowering the people of ill-fated Bihar. We have always lacked
a good regional leader of stature who could defend the needs of
Bihar. Had the then politicians put their foot down on the issues
like Kosi river or freight equilisation policy, Biharis would have
never migrated to other parts of the country to seek jobs. We now
need leaders who can not only restore our wealth but also
our "PRIDE".

It is important for every Bihari to realize that unless and until we
build our own home (Bihar), we will never have our pride anywhere
outside.

Dear Biharis, it has been enough now. We have suffered a lot… we
have been exploited a lot… we have tolerated all forms of atrocities
in the past sixty years. Our pride is at stake. Now, the time has
come to stand up and intensify our struggle to regain the respect
and dignity which we deserve in India. Let us start making our
efforts very much in the positive direction to build a new Bihar.

Let us create a people's movement to bring about a change... Let us
act now for the resurgence of Bihar.

AGAST ANAND.

others." - Mahatma Gandhi.

Dear All,

Changing Bihar needs a total revamp of socio-economic and political
system. Relying only on the politicians will not at all help us in
our mission because the entire system is currupt and rotten. We have
experienced it in the past 60 years. Only a "People's Movement" can
bring about a change. The people of Bihar ought to be made aware of
the whole scenario.

My plan is to:

1 Distribute thousands of pamphlets, mainly in rural and semi-urban
Bihar. containing the facts to inspire people to go for a change. It
had happened during our freedom movement too.

2. Hold public meetings to create awareness specially in schools and
colleges targeting the youth because this movement is aimed at
securing their future only.

3. Create groups of folk singers to spread the message of BIHARIYAT.

4. Send the emails to all the Biharis across the globe for their
support.

5. Encourage visionary and progressive young men and women to enter
into politics so that they can bring about about a change.

I request you to share your views on this. I also request you to
mail my article to more and more Biharis. It will also be nice if
you could arrange some meetings in Delhi or Patna or any other part
of the country so that I can address the people on this issue and
seek their help in this movement.

Looking forward for your response.

Regards,

Agast.

[madad-bihar-2008] briefing of discussion wth Balaji today

Hello Rashim and Priya;
 
I just talked to Balaji. He suggetsed that the medical work should be considered with two emphasis: 1. Basic Medical Need of treating acute diseases/attending to more urgent illnesses like diarrhoea, dysentry, pneumonia/cold (as the weather is changing, many of infectious in origin) and 2. long term invlovement with special focus to women's and children's health which actually a very much neglected area and not yet explored.
 
One important aspect is also malnutrition in children with possibly forecasting the deficinecy states based on the assessment of current diet deficiencies and addressing preemptively with fortification, vitamins etc. He also felt that there would be many patients with chronic medical diseases like DM and HTN but we may not have resources to address those now. Thus, this 2 pronged approach either can be taken independently or staged. Also, basic support like clarifying water in absence of ability to boil (and I would also add using antibacterial gels to prevent communicable disease) should be addressed.
 
Government camps have been providing medical care in a more centralized fashion but villagers from distant areas have not been able to get help and so mobile medical camps in make shift tents/venues should be planned. They were able to get 7 to 10 doctors from Chennai and Patna and also he explained the concept of RMPs but felt that training of new health volunteers in from of community health workers, although doable long term project, may not be suitable for more immediate work. Same is for medicines from LOCOST, again can be ordered but may take longer. (I'll also check both these issues with TRU-Trust for Reaching the Uncreached-doctors & locost who have decades of experience to see what can be done in medium term as a way out and if/how it can be accomplished).
 
I will follow up with Dharmendraji as well as Ashish/Kamayani/Dr. Shakeel when they get some time after their Padyatra.  If any of you speak to them pl share with them my proposed trip & gist of this discussion with Balaji.
 
I have not heard from Vivek yet, so if you could get in touch with him please ask about his availability/days.  
 
Thanks.
 
Urvi.

PATNA to become the biggest Village of the Planet

What they say ....what they do...see yourself.

( Following letter was personally handed over by me to Shri Sushil Modi, Dy CM of Bihar in January 2007 itself, Nothing happened except a few acknowledgements. Anyone can still witness this "Dream Project of PMC", which was given shape during Nitish regime only.)

The dream of PMC : "PATNA can be the biggest Village of the Planet"

Dated January 21, 2007

Shri Nitish Kumarji,
Hon'ble Chief Minister of Bihar,Patna.

Sub: "Patna Super Village Plan" of Patna Municipal Corpn.

Sir,

So what if our Hon'ble Prez find tears in his eyes by looking at the plight of Bihar or Biharis. So what, if the hopes and efforts our NRI brethren to see a "Resurgent Bihar" are dashed but PMC will always be determined to put up the RoadBlocks only instead of removing a single one.

There is a old proverb which says-

"Old habits die hard"

This proverb fits exactly into the philosophy & style of Patna Municipal Corporation, to whom most of the Patnaites have given a lovely nickname "Patna Narak Nigam" also.

My Dear CM Sahib, in your leadership, we thought our Bihar will again be developing in accordance to the norms & standards of 21st century, which was earlier pushed back to 19 th century by the previous Govts. But all this will remain a dream for Bihar, because PMC seems to be very much determined to develop PATNA into the "Biggest Village of the Globe".

You need not to travel too far to witness the glimpse of "Patna Super Village Plan of PMC". Just at the Baily Road under the nose of Shri N.K.Singh, Hon'ble Dy. Chairman of State Planning Board i.e. his ancestral House, the PMC dared to inaugurate this "Maha Yojna" in the last month i.e. December 2006.

They are developing a "Super Sabzi Market" in the midst of a very important road, which acts as the lifeline to the lakhs of people living in the colonies like ShastriNagar, AG Colony, AIIMS, Patel Nagar etc. This road starts off Bailey Road in between JD Women's College & the Boundary wall of the Tribhuvan-Madhuri Niwas ( h/o Shri N.K.Singh, IAS), which has also been identified as an important 100 feet wide road in the "Draft Patna Master Plan 2021".

According to PMC, they are doing this sin in accordance with the order of Patna High Court but Patna HC court has not given any such order 'which says that remove encroachments from the sides of the road and allow encroachments in the midst of the Road' as happened in this case. Patna HC only asked PMC to remove encroachment from the Roads but in this case PMC has established an example of 'officially allowing encroachments on the important Roads'. PMC is doing all this to violate the Patna HC court Order not only in words, but to violate the court order in Spirit also.

You are kindly requested to look into the matter and ask PMC officials to refrain in indulging such kind criminal conspiracies & activities, which are probably aimed to tarnish the image of Bihar as well as Your Govt. It is up to you to take such officials for the task who have dared to make such kind of uncivilized act.

With Best Regards.

Copy also to: NRI Biharis/ Participants of "Global Meet for Resurgent Bihar" to witness a glimpse of the deeds & schemes of PMC before leaving Patna, so that they overcome their illusions if accumulated in last 3 days.

Patna/UNI/November 15th, 2008 : After years of dilly-dallying, Bihar capital would soon be declared as India 's newest metropolitan city, the second in the country's eastern region after Kolkata.

Official sources informed on Saturday, that the State Cabinet, at its last meeting here, took a unanimous decision to this effect on Friday.

" Patna has recently qualified to be upgraded to a metro city as it had fulfilled the basic criteria of having a residential population of one million," sources said.

Quoting the latest official figures, they said at present more than 1.7 million people permanently resided in the capital city, while another 300,000 people came here everyday from outside for jobs and other purposes.

The sources elaborated that for proper planning and execution of new projects required by the new Metro city, a ten-member Metropolitan Planning Committee (MPC) would soon be set up under the chairmanship of the state Urban Development Minister, which in turn would decide for the extension of the new geographical limit of the city.

Besides the minister, renowned city planners, engineers and architects would be the members and advisors of the high-power committee.

After Kolkata, the capital of Bihar would be the second metropolitan city in the eastern India, sources said adding that the average growth in population of Patna during the past few years was hovering between eight and ten per cent per annum.

"It was much above than any other city in the region, including Bhubaneswar and Guwahati," sources informed.

The stupendous increase in the population of Patna and its neighbourhood since 2000 was primarily because of a steady socio- economic growth in the area, better scope of job opportunities as well as improved law and order in almost every locality, according to sources.

They added that the above factors had resulted into a steady flow of people to come and permanently reside in the city.

Referring to the MPC'S future task for upgrading the civic and other amenities of Patna to convert it into a much better place to live for its people, the sources said under a multi-pronged strategy, the city's civic amenities would be brought at par with those in other metro cities like Delhi , Mumbai, Chennai and Kolkata under time bound programmes.

The committee would also formulate yearly, five yearly and longer term prospective schemes for all round beautification and other developments of the new Metro city, the sources said.

The high-power committee was likely to hold its first meeting soon to finalise the new and wider geographical area of the proposed second metropolitan city of the East, the sources further informed.
