Political Turmoil – 06 / 2020 28th June 2020

  


Friends & Critics – CHOTI – CHOTI BATEIN
A-     Pandit Nehru the states man has come under biggest criticism by the ruling dispensation. Since he established democratic norms to the hilt. He gave Country a broad scientific base (Including Nuclear Power), he gave institutions comparable to the world class, he gave technical infrastructure, he gave Dams and river projects. He thought and gave IIT’s, IIM’s and AIIMS likes. If India has gone ahead so much it was mainly because of his farsightedness. An incident to quote during 1952 general elections he was addressing a public meeting Ludhiana, he had learnt that Jai Prakash Narayan, (JP) was to address a public meting at near by place after he said to the public “In Your City after Two Days JP is going to address a Public Meting, I will request you all to kindly go and attend his meting and listen to him and his thoughts” Our ruling dispensation leaders only abuse and condemn the opposition leaders.   
B-     A caution “Bhakti is Tolerable, Mahabhakti is Divisive and Andhbhakti, could prove to be DESTRUCTIVE”. Please decide your path carefully.
C-     A norm of virtual rallies is a new beginning – Captive audience, a must on TV.
D-     Our party and leadership makes no mistakes – the great defenders are Ravi Shankar Prasad and Prakash Javdekar.
E-     GDP was Crumpling then comes Madam Corono – all blame shifts to Covid – 19, says Vivek Deberoy an economist. A part of PM’s Niti Ayog – Think Tank.
Snippets
a)       The Great Rethink India backs off a lockdown strategy the elite cheered on, but the poor could not cope with says - Ruchir Sharma an Economist (TOI – 2nd June 20).
b)      What’s Behind Chinese Intrusions? Bejing needs to save face globally. Expect a long LAC faceoff and no solution. India should reconsider the “Informal” Summit with Xi  where both sides take back very different perceived outcomes. India believes Xi understand Modi, China believes Modi kowtows to Xi. Says – Indra Bagchi (TOI – 4nd June 20).

c)       Resetting India Ties with China. The Ladakh intrusion is an outcome of Bejing’s ambitions and insecurities, and lock of clarity on LAC.  Says –  Gen. NC Vij, former army chief (TOI – 23rd June 20).
