Double Standards of Political Parties - Understanding What Politicians Actually Meant

BJP - Stand on Nuclear Deal

After wikileaks disclosed that BJP supported Nuclear Deal in private, many people criticized BJP for their behavior.

In my opinion, those whoever are criticizing BJP for this, do not know how to read one's manifesto, and how to interpret what the politicians speak.

Most of the indians do not know what the country needs, but, they think they know. Our media also never worries about the country. That's why, it is very difficult for any political party to convince a common man on a highly advanced policy. That's why political parties have double standards (sometimes indirect double standards).

In 2008, when there was discussion about Nuclear Deal, L.K.Advani rejected the bill saying, it would stop India from doing Nuclear tests. At the same time, Manmohan Singh said, we are not losing any rights on doing Nuclear tests.

By that itself, I understood that, BJP fully supports Nuclear deal. Because, from the statements of both, it was clear that, L.K.Advani did not have any objections. After the vote of confidence in 2008, Dr.JP clearly said that, BJP fully supports Nuclear deal. Unfortunately the common man did not understand it, since the media did not explain it.

When bill that is related to nuclear deal (Which was must to pass, for the nuclear deal with USA) was introduced in the Indian Parliament, BJP fully supported to that bill, and few parties of UPA did not support it. Again, the common man did not understand it, and the media did not try to explain it.

Another rumor was, when Vajpayee was the Prime Minister, BJP tried to have Nuclear Deal with USA, but, they could not materialize it.

But, when wikileaks said, BJP supported Nuclear deal, suddenly everyone understood it, and people started criticizing BJP left and right.

Understanding the political parties intentions is pretty simple. Read about them little deep, and read the entire news rather than headline. It would be straightforward.

Chandrababu Naidu

I am yet to see, when Chandrababu Naidu stands on atleast one of his main promises. Starting 1982, when his father-in-law N.T.Rama Rao started the party, till 2009 elections, repeatedly, he was doing things, which were theoretically considered as incorrect. But, whatever he has done, it was the best for the state.

Whether it was
1982 (when he openly challenged for anyone to defeat him in any constituency in Chittoor district; By the way, he lost it)
1983 (As soon as NTR won, he joined TDP)
1985 (Claims, he has saved NTR from Nadendla, where as Nadendla and Daggubati says the other way)
1994 (Prepared to jump to congress, if TDP loses)
1995 (Backstabbed NTR with Daggubati and Hari Krishna and became CM; Soon thrown out Daggubati, and after sometime thrown out Hari Krishna)
1998 (Jumped from United Front to NDA)
1999 (Full of useless promises, which destroys the state, which he never kept)
2004 (Another full of useless promises)

After these many things, in 2009, if anybody had really believed that, he would really give money to the poor people, there is nothing more funny than that. The unfortunate thing is, those who became upper middle class from middle class in the last 10-15 years, are not understanding that, it is because of him, they moved up in their wealth. When there are ignorant people like that, we have to tell lies for their development.

Lok Satta - Stand on Lokpal Bill

Most of the people would have known by now about this, but, many people did not know before.

Since the day one, Lok Satta or Dr.JP has not been in agreement with the Janlokpal bill proposed by Anna Hazare. But, they could not say it as the headline. Because, the supporters of Janlokpal were in such a way that, if anybody does not support Janlokpal, they are corrupt. They have huge publicity, where as Lok Satta is struggling to get publicity. Anna Hazare has huge publicity for his janlokpal bill, But, when Dr.JP tried to introduce bill on Anti-Corruption, nobody supported it.

That's why, there was no headline on anything against to Janlokpal till now, and Dr.JP or Lok Satta did not say anything against them till very recently. But, if anyone had read the notes of Lok Satta after the round table, it was very clear. Lok Satta was against bringing PM, Judiciary, MPs behavior in Parliament, and lower bureaucracy under lokpal, which were must for Anna Hazare. Those four documents were in the home page of loksatta.org for many months, and I don't know how many bothered to read them. Another very interesting thing was, Lok Satta has not drafted it's own version of Lokpal bill, eventhough, it's opinions are a lot different from all other bills. If Lok Satta drafts Lokpal bill, immediately all the supporters of Janlokpal will start campaigning against Lok Satta. Of course, the recent incidents in the last few days should make it clear for everyone. If not, you can assume that Lok Satta still supports JanLokpal (and vote for Lok Satta).

If you want to develop ignorant people, you have to have double standards. There is no other option.

Quote of the Day - Corruption and Lokpal

When CBI, CBCID, CID, ACB, courts, police, IAS/IPS officers, politicians and public could not reduce the corruption, because, (with the claim that) they themselves were corrupted, How can JanLokpal bill with more powers magically eliminate the corruption. Are we going to bring gods and angels as the Lokpal members?

Increase in the No.of Divorces

Many people are worried about increase in the no.of Divorces.

But, I am happy about it, because, the root cause for increase in the no.of divorces is, the women are becoming independent. That's why, if they cannot live with their husbands, then they are applying for divorce.

But, I am unhappy, because, Government gives too much power to women, and many women who are independent are misusing those acts, and because of that men are suffering. There are many stories at 498a.org, where men suffered because of women unfairly.

If a woman suffers because of her husband, she can just leave him and take divorce. I don't see any reason, why does she need to use 498a act to get him arrested and put him in jail for few years. Within the limited circle I have, I have seen few women who, when they got some differences of opinions with their husbands, used this act and started harassing them. Obviously, I did not see any fair usage of this act.

If the wife's family is richer than the husband's family or if the local police is "so called" sincere, then the misuse is significantly more.

I still cannot understand why Chiranjeevi needs to arrest his son-in-law in the name of dowry harassment. Why cannot they just get divorce and leave him? Is it to take revenge for the things happened in 2007?

Suicides by farmers

http://www.thehindu.com/opinion/open-page/article2038322.ece

The following is the snippet from the above article.

“One of the articles in the Open page (April 24, 2011) talked of suicides of silk farmers. It said how a couple committed suicide because they were unable to pay a loan of Rs 80,000.

There was a sarcastic comment too: ‘This is equivalent to an IT couple's one month salary.' As a professional working in the IT industry for the past seven years, I was deeply saddened by that comment.”

My comment to the original article is,

The income tax paid by that couple is much more than Rs.80,000 per year. What is government doing with that money? Giving free TVs, cable connections and donating money in different forms rather than improving those poor farmers? These people do not question the government for anything, and fall on the people who are earning more money. If one does not do their duty properly, and criticizes others for everything, then they would never develop.

Freebies By the Government

1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity.
   
   
2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
   
   
3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
   
   
4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it!
   
   
5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that is the beginning of the end of any nation.

Murders By Telangana Supporters

Two days back, one of my acquaintances went for counselling for P.G. admissions in Hyderabad, and was not allowed to attend counselling by the Telangana supporters. That student never lived in Coastal Andhra or Rayalaseema, and that student's parents also did not live in Coastal andhra or Rayalaseema in the last 30 years.

If one student is not allowed to counselling, then they would lose one year. If they stop 40 students, it means, they are destroying 40 years of people, and it is equivalent to killing one person.

In this case, Telangana supporters have done a murder, but, unfortunately no media covered it. However, the media covered the suicides of some ignorant people in the name of sacrifices for Telangana.

When United Andhra supporters destroyed the government property in Dec 2009, the court has given punishment of 10 years imprisonment to them at very fast speed. Whereas, for Telangana supporters, entire assembly (except one MLA) asked to withdraw the cases, and the cases did not even go to the court.

Some time back, one Telangana supporter commented that, Andhra people would be happy to construct buildings on the graveyards of Telangana people.

My reply to that is,

If anyone is going to destroy my life or the life of my close friends and relatives, then I will be more than happy to construct graveyards for them, irrespective of whether they are terrorists, militants or Telangana supporters.

If Lord Krishna gives special powers, I would like to eliminate all the people who have done direct/indirect murders in the name of separate Telangana. If not, I would like to become Yama Kinkara (the one who punishes people in Hell) and will punish all these in my own way, so that, they will not forget it for atleast for one life of Brahma (31,536,000,000,000 human years).

Had Sivamani been in Software Industry

Sivamani (Software developer) to the Manager:

I worked with 10 managers in 7 years in 2 companies. Ask any manager, "Sivamani strongly rejected my design. Can I go ahead with that?" If atleast one manager says, you can go ahead, then I will not interfere in your design again.


For those who did not watch the movie Sivamani, starring Nagarjuna,
