Why Strikes are so common in India?

I wonder why we face so many strikes in India. Everyday we find one or other services on offer by government even by private sector are on strike. These striking parties or groups can be doctors, engineers, civil servants, lawyers, drivers, pilots, etc. you name any profession and I bet that group has utilise this STRIKE as weapon to make his point.

Why these strikes happen? I feel we Indians have become so aloof to others concern that until that person takes some strong retaliatory action we never notice his genuine or otherwise need. OR we have stopped being responsible enough to discharge our duties properly. If we are performing as defined no body should feel short of services obtained by him.

These doctors, lawyers, drivers, pilots, bankers etc never think of problem caused to others. They or all others on strike or planning a strike to make their Point understood by concerned authorities should think of other manner to make their felt by concerned. BUT they should never stop their work and cause loss to their organisation, society, nation and ultimately to themselves.

They can launch awareness program through media, publicity, protests with badges, walks on Sunday or holidays, even after office hours, I am confident if public comes to know their this productive protest for genuine demands every single person would join them irrespective of his/her profession.

India got liberated not because only politicians were fighting the battle, actually all and sundry were together for one common cause. So, my simple IQ says don’t go for strike based on your profession, make your point in public and let the public help you. Public will join you if they know your demands are genuine and you are respecting public’s need and not discontinuing your services.

May people understand this simple logic.

Police in Danger

It is very unfortunate to know that naxalite areas of Bihar, Jharkhand, and Orrisa are putting lot of pressure on Policemen deployed there. These Maoist outfits, as reported by leading papers, are using landmines to blow police vehicles. They are not only damaging government properties physically they are seriously damaging the image of these state forces in masses.
The common man is facing hard time, neither can they have full faith on these state forces for their protection nor do they feel safe against naxali threats. We need immediate solution to this problem either through political dialogues or through sheer administrative powers. We need government will to stop this.
I feel apart from these preventive measures government must look at corrective measures also by starting development work in interiors where people are facing difficulties in making their ends meets. Poverty is the main cause for these troubles as people are joining these anti state forces just to earn quick money and many a times have existence noticed.
We Indian citizens and one good community who are known for love and peace should not indulge in these acts of terror and anti social activities. At least my simple IQ says this.

Making Rich richer and Poor more poorer

Earlier I used to wonder in my disbelief that how people sitting in powerful positions can take such decisions, which have adverse effects on society at large. But when government announces such decisions it appears that probably collective intelligence in not better than individual thought process.

Today’s paper says government of Uttar Pradesh is slapping approximately 1% special tax on some basic food items coming in the state and waive approximately 3-4% entry tax on consumer durable items like TV, Computer, Fridge, etc.

What is this? People buying luxuries would be required to shell out lesser money, which other wise has not affected their purchase decision. BUT the common man, who is struggling hard in present recession to make his ends meet, would be required to spend more on his basic necessities especially on food items. This is wrong, in my opinion. The poor would be spending more and thereby getting deprived of chances of savings and improving his financial health. At the other hand people going for these luxuries could have paid this extra amount without any thought. And this small unwanted savings of Rich would again be spent on some luxury.

So, I want to know the simple logics for this taxation funda. There must be one.

Post Election alliance - A cheating with Public

Its 15th of may and people are waiting for election results. But what is happening in India, people fighting against each other during elections campaign days; shouting slogan against each other are showing friendhip towards each other.the ideologies which were being opposed pre voting days have gone our So Called Honest; Ideal Netas are shaking hands with most unlike partners.I feel this is cheating with public who believe in you and your ideologies are taken for a ride. today all 15-20 political parties are ready to accept each other just be able to form a government. If they are so good to each other then why india has such large number of political parties and why we see so much division of parties before elections and why we see alliance after elections.the dirty tricks to form government should be stopped. Netas, policticians should not be allowed to mislead public
