We are Richie Rich....

         Our Dear PM,FM,HM ... (No they are not radio channels but they are all remote controlled robots play the role of heads of a superpower called India i.e Bharat i.e Hindustan i.e ????)..... said that the poverty has come down....I am thoroughly confused, what does it mean???? Is it because the money in the Swiss bank is tripled or many people died in Kedarnath????.....or the regular deaths of hunger increase as one time meal is also a luxury now for many families....(Though Mr Raj Babbar gets the meal only at Rs 12/- ,Mr Rashid Massod at only Rs 5/- and Mr Farooq Abdulla at Rs 1/-)??????

        Who gives us these figures? what is the definition of poverty line? Can anybody really explain it to a layman like me who doesn’t know the terminolgies such as fiscal deficit. How does one define the poverty line in India?  Which yardsticks is used, either in terms of the food that money can buy or in terms of defining who the poor are. As per the definition “The poverty threshold, or poverty line, is the minimum level of income deemed adequate in a given country. Determining the poverty line is usually done by finding the total cost of all the essential resources that an average human adult consumes in one year. The largest of these expenses is typically the rent required to live in an apartment, so historically, economists have paid particular attention to the real estate market and housing prices as a strong poverty line affecter.”

        This means Rs 33/- per day includes food & stay,(other daily expenses as the medical,electricity,telephone expenditure is not included in this) so as per Mr Babbar  Rs 24 requires for two time meal and still you are left with a hefty sum of Rs9/- for your rent and if you eat only once then you can live in an multi-facilitate apartment .you will be healthy and wealthy….You are so lucky ….

we are a rich country

Why we cannot stop the corruption?..............

When There Is Will There Is The Way............

When we say that the corruption is every where and the politicians are corrupt and now no one can change the system because the lawmaking is in the hands of corrupt people etc etc then I feel these are the mere excuses we are giving to ourselves, we are either becoming too lethargic to do something or we are too insensitive towards others plight and simply running away from the situation like a coward.....
If we believe in the above sentence then we can come out of any situation but slowly and very tragically we are losing the faith in ourselves and surrender......
Remember we got our freedom because the common man who perhaps was more poor, uneducated, tied down with age old beliefs of cast, creed, religion etc dared to fight against the world's highest power of that time, who was ruling 2/3 of the world and used to say proudly that "The Empire on which the sun never sets" .They had everything weapons, money, power, advantage of 150 yrs rule which definitely gave them an upper hand over the situation but our common man never got frightened and fought till the end sometimes with the leader sometimes on his own and we got the freedom. How this miracle happened? 150 years of slavery could have stopped him saying "This is every day's story; British are going to rule why I should waste my time? I should try and get place in any of the services and take care of my family, let the others face their own fate".....just think if that common man would have thought this way then???
I think we should try to start from ourselves that we will not give up to any type of corruption. If every one starts this then automatically the whole nation follows it and then the so called corrupt leaders will vamoose in the thin air or try to become non corrupt......
I am not day dreaming but thinking over today's situation, the country which was once rich with culture, trade, natural resources even in British regime, is now representing the third world where world bank is refusing to give further loan for development saying they are not sure whether the money will be used for the same purpose for which the loan is sanctioned.....
Why this has happened? Because the common man forgot his own strength to question the government if they are doing wrong, he just started thinking of I before WE forgetting the fact that many “I” make WE so if one of the I is affected means the whole system is affected and that ultimately means our own existence is affected….
I am requesting my young friends, don’t just get involved in mobiles and the virtual world, face the situation, the new generation gets demoralized very fast, giving up is very easy, just think if any of the freedom fighter would have given up that time, then you might have come across “Dogs and Indians are not allowed” when you wanted to enter that super mall….Just think

The Dream of Rich India

I dreamed a dream in times gone by
When hope was high and life worth living
I dreamed that love would never die
I dreamed that God would be forgiving
Then I was young and unafraid
And dreams were made and used and wasted
There was no ransom to be paid
No song unsung no wine untasted [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsty.com/glee-i-dreamed-a-dream-lyrics.html ]
But the tigers come at night
With their voices soft as thunder
As they tear your hope apart
As they turn your dream to shame
And still I dreamed she'll come to me
That we would live the years together
But there are dreams that cannot be
And there are storms we cannot weather
I had a dream my life would be
So different from this hell I'm living
So different now from what it seemed
Now life has killed the dream I dreamed



A beautiful song isn’t’ it? Today I remember it because of our very own leaders, who feel that the people of this country are idiots and they have every right to make mockery of the situation, I was amused to know that if I earn Rs33/- per day then I can really save money for my future and I am not poor , I can really eat a nice meal in Rs12/- in Mumbai  and if  in Delhi my condition is still better, I will save more as I get full meal in Rs5/- and, and, and, and now I know why they call Kashmir as ‘Heaven on Earth’ because Rs1/- is enough for a meal ,so I am a well settled person in Kashmir if I earn Rs33/- ..Hamidast..Hamidast..Hamidast….
 No I am not dreaming, the honourable ministers are telling us this after a proper survey of every nook and corner of the metropolitan cities. I thought why I am struggling? and why I am taking so much pain to go to the market where I can't get any vegetable below Rs40/- per kilo (people who were staunch non- vegetarian turned to vegetarian because the prices of fish, chicken, mutton are not affordable). Gas cylinder price increases every three month but if I get full, ready meal then why do I need a gas cylinder?
When our ministers spends only Rs12/- every day why do I need Rs1000/- for a family of 4? My humble request to all these ministers to tell me this eating joints where they can eat the full meal for Rs12/- because the Bhelwala has increased the price of the plate making it Rs20/- and Vada-Pao costs Rs15/-  (I am a Mumbaikar, a Dehiite can compare Golgappa ,Dahibada or Aaluchhat price)
Sometimes I really wonder do  power makes a man such thick skin that he makes mockery of the real facts? These so called highly educated people do not think twice before making such outrageous statements? Don’t they fell ashamed?
Look at the Planning commission’s statement
Quote:
The Planning Commission told the Supreme Court on Tuesday that anyone spending more than Rs 965 per month in urban India and Rs 781 in rural India will be deemed not to be poor. Updating the poverty line cut-off figures, the commission said those spending in excess of Rs 32 a day in urban areas or Rs 26 a day in villages will no longer be eligible to draw benefits of central and state government welfare schemes meant for those living below the poverty line.
Unquote.
I think this is not a joke with Indian people but a genuine mistake of our honourable prime minister, the head of the planning commission and the UPA head, as all of them have studied or spent the major part of their life in UK, so they also think the same way as Britishers think about Native Indians .Our PM and Head of planning commission are born before independence and I think they still think that we live in the same situation where a person could have had a sumptuous meal and save something for his future with Rs33/- per day or since all of them have studied in UK they must have calculated the figures in pounds and the clerk/typist, that stupid Indian just gave the figures in rupees . Let us enjoy our Rich status till the time they realize their mistake ….



5 rupayya 12 ana.......India is a Rich Country
