We, the citizens of India have elected public representatives to fight for the welfare, but not for their resignations, agitations and strikes. Are they thinking about the livelihood of daily wagers, cost of by-elections, damages, etc?
Some of the politicians are used to trigger sensitive issues like caste and religion for political benefits, but this time in the state of Andhra Pradesh its turn for regional feeling. It resulted in exaggerating the protest in another 9 states of India demanding for separate state. According to Constitution of India –
“Right to Equality - The State shall not deny to any person equality before the law or the equal protection of the laws within the territory of India. Prohibition of discrimination on grounds of religion, race, caste, sex or place of birth. Fundamental of duty of every citizen of India –
a) to abide by the Constitution and respect its ideals and institutions, the National Flag and the National Anthem;
b) to cherish and follow the noble ideals which inspired our national struggle for freedom;
c) to uphold and protect the sovereignty, unity and integrity of India;
d) to defend the country and render national service when called upon to do so;
e) to promote harmony and the spirit of common brotherhood amongst all the people of India transcending religious, linguistic and regional or sectional diversities; to renounce practices derogatory to the dignity of women;
f) to value and preserve the rich heritage of our composite culture;
g) to protect and improve the natural environment including forests, lakes, rivers and wild life, and to have
compassion for living creatures; h)to develop the scientific temper, humanism and the spirit of inquiry and reform;
i) to safeguard public property and to abjure violence; j) to strive towards excellence in all spheres of individual andcollective activity so that the nation constantly rises to higher levels of endeavour and achievement;”
Who are responsible for crisis? As per the Constitution of India, who is responsible to initiate process for separate state? According to Constitution of India - “Parliament may by law –
a) form a new State by separation of territory from any State or by uniting two or more States or parts of States or by uniting any territory to a part of any State;
b) increase the area of any State;
c) diminish the area of any State;
d) alter the boundaries of any State;
e) alter the name of any State:
Provided that no Bill for the purpose shall be introduced in either House of Parliament except on the recommendation of the President and unless, where the proposal contained in the Bill affects the area, boundaries or name of any of the States, the Bill has been referred by the President to the Legislature of that State for expressing its views thereon within such period as may be specified in the reference or within such further period as the President may allow and the period so specified or allowed has expired.”
So, should government of India consider discrimination by region as a crime? And the organization and political parties promoting demand for separate state with strikes, bandhs and agitations should be punished?
Philosophy of transferring government employees and IAS official is to avoid their hold/power/influence on region or particular departments. Similarly "Should government or election commission or respective political parties consider to regulate or layoff or blacklist the politicians from the political life - who are responsible
and exaggerating unnecessary chaos in the nation with resignations and agitations? And also in future consider viability to implement limited chance being MP's /MLA's (i.e. once elected, after completion of termthey
cannot go for re-election in their remaining lifetime)”
According to Suresh Tendulkar Committee report - "Every third Indian lives in poverty". At this stage, Can Indian government afford to support the demand for separate state? At this stage in the best interest of nation, should Government of India consider amendment a law that further division of state is not possible / viable to support?
In case of Telangana agitation for separate state for developing backward regions. In regards to this politicians are arguing about 610 G.O. and gentlemen agreements which are not in the interest of the nation.
These politicians have failed to implement or enforce the Constitution of India’s 73rd and 74th Amendments
which empower district level administration. Thus, one can understand that current political crisis is not for development but for power.
Government of India should be responsible and provide facts about the false / betrayed information provided by some organizations and political parties to provoke public. Some politicians are spreading rumors about Nagarjuna Sagar dam construction, but the fact is that - “Plans to construct Nagarjuna Sagar begun in 1903 duing British rule. Finally, construction of Nagarjuna Sagar Dam has begun in 1955 which was inaugurated by then Prime Minister of India Shri Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru and Telangana state was included in the formation of Andhra Pradesh - Nov. 1st, 1956.” And Cotton barrage and irrigation canal for konnaseema ople was built during British rule by General Sir Arthur Thomas Cotton in 1850’s. Most of the irrigation
projects were started before independence and after independence governments have taken efforts to increase the capacity and modernize these projects. These are the issues required to be addressed by Government of India on emergency basis.
