Indian Govt wake up

There has been one more death of farmer in Vidharba region of Maharashtra state.Just few days back I read an article on how India is progressing at a fast pace with good growth in GDP in previous quater.The article also included the upgraded lifestyle of Indians and how Shopping Malls are full with consumers willing to spend more.then we have the periodic reports of plight of farmers in rural areas who have to bear the brunt of liberalised agricultural markets and negligence of Government towards agricultural sector.
When Sharad Pawar became Agricultural Minister I thought that he will take good care of farmers of Vidharba region coz he too belongs to Maharashtra.But he too was no different from his predecessors.
More than 70% of India directly or indirectly depends on agriculture sector but it never got importance which it deserved.Industrialisation,liberalisation is fine but it should kept in check if it affects the interests of our farmers.

Don for elections!!!

This person Abu Salem is a terrorist who has spent most of life plotting bomb blast and other terrorist activities in India.Now he plans to fight election in Mubarakpur constituency in Uttar Pradesh.I am shocked how can a notorious person like him can even think of doing this.He is currently in jail and is facing trial for 1993 bomb blasts in which he played a major role.
I wonder whether India is mature for democratic form of government.Democracy is for people who know the value of vote and its power.Day by day people with criminal background are jumping into election fray and no wonder they are successful in too.
Its no secret that few people in India specially the minorities are more loyal to Pakistan than to India.Any person who is said to have worked for terrorists suddenly gets lots of support from these people.Abu Salem and Afzal Guru episode has proved this.In my opinion India doesnt deserve Democractic form of Government.

abhishek,
i too agree that we need good agricultural base apart from becoming industrialised nation. We cant depend on foreign nations for our food grain demand. Thank you for visiting my page, and keep coming.

Considering how many hungry people there are in India, one would think that agriculture would be a priority!

As for Abu Salem, he didn't make the ballot and that's a good thing. In the US, convicted felons cannot run for office. Is that not a law in India?

I wonder how Monica is doing in prison. She wasn't a big film star, was she? I had never heard of her until I read about the 1993 bombings and her recent extradition from Portugal. Isn't she locked up in Hyderabad?
