India Inc. or Ltd.

I am not here to talk about how India's GDP is growing and how corporate India is making difference to the World economy. Rather I am interested in talking about what difference its making to the common middle class man who live in 28 states & some union territories of India. But for some people India is only equal to some cosmopolitan cities. People from this India may go on a short holiday on 15th August, 26th January and on election day, instead of performing their first duty of that particular day; still they give us how to think about India as a one country!!!!!!!

One of the reason, why I want to talk about this is recent visit of Mr. Rahul Gandhi to Mumbai. Yesterday I was wondering is President of India visiting Mumbai? I happened to listen to his speech at Bhaidas Hall this morning on one Marathi News Channel (don't worry it was uncut version unlike other Hindi & English media). His speech was impressive and crowd was responding to it enthusiastically. Its a positive sign for Indian politics that, youths are taking interest in politics. Mr. Rahul Gandhi reminds me of his father Mr. Rajiv Gandhi. As a young kid, I was his great fan!!! His speech was roaming around two issues - 1) Two type of people in India - One who believe in one India and others who believe in divided India. 2)Youth needs to join politics even if they don't have any political godfather = join Indian Youth Congress!!

For his second issue I don't have any problem; he was simply doing his business. For the first issue he was talking about one India, but he was addressing to only 10%-20% of Indians!!! Yes, India is one; we are first Indian!!! But how the issues of local are less important who live in their cities and states for all their life. A person who live in Kolhapur, Surat, Meerut, Kanyakumari goes to other state or city max to max ten time in his entire life; unless he is a central government employee or IT/Technology professional. Hence the issues at micro level does affect us more compare to macro level. I agree to the concept of THINK BIG, THINK GLOBAL. But we always forget to act locally!!! which is more important. For past 50-60 years the party who is ruling India is doing the same. They think in broader manner and their approach is with only for 10-20% of Indians. This makes rich richer and poor poorer. The finance minister of this county consult with top industrialist before the annual budget. However, he doesn't feel the necessity to have dialogues with farmers.

Mr. Gandhi when you want one India, don't be biased with locals. They guys you were speaking with yesterday was from SVKM who come in luxury cars and sport bikes or live king size life. What difference they will make by coming in politics. They join politics to run their business. Thats the reason why all government tenders get allotted to these guys only. And above all SVKM is Gujarati minority trust, where students of Gujarati origin get 50% reservation. These are such institutes all across Maharashtra! Instead of thinking about entire India, if we start performing our duties at local level; India will certainly become stronger nation. Nothing will happen if we continue abuse Raj Thackrey or someone else on social networking sites or online news papers!! Be the change you want to be!!!!

Again coming back to Mr. Rahul Gandhi. I believe he is 50% genuine guy. But certain facts he could not deny. He was telling student, join Indian Youth Congress if they want to become leader in democratic way. But the fact is; he will become PM of India in coming years, because he is from Gandhi family. Also look into your party first, on the name of development your MLAs, MP are developing new slums in Mumbai. If he is no keen about common man, why farmers of Maharashtra still attempting suicide? Who got benefited from last year's 8 Crores package for farmers? Few rich farmers of Western Maharashtra? Why condition of Vidharbh is still the same? This because your politics is only roaming around 10-20% of Indians.

People say 'Marathi Manoos' has become selfish and only hate other these days!!! Why shouln't I if our water, our electricity and resources are getting steal by the unauthorised people who have migrated from other states, even after paying heavy taxes. You may not understand the pain of Marathi Manoos only by travelling in less crowded train in off-peak hour for one day! Once come in Virar-Churchgate train at around 8.00am on weekday (without your z security). Or go to Lalbaugh-Parel where clothe mill workers are fighting for their rights from 20 years. Last generation of Mill workers became gangsters and bar-girls because your 10-20% people left nothing for them. Entire India get united when some one slap UP/BIhari taxiwala, but do we react the same way when farmer force to suicide because their 60% of electricity get diverted to keep Mumbai glittering? Now think who is discriminating? Why you see only Gupta, Yadav, Pandey in MTNL?

Our generation needs think rationally. Keep your eyes open. Don't get driven by some English/Hindi channels and some soft-spoken political parties, who make Rs. 450Cr sea-link in Rs. 1000Cr and rob us on the name of non-secularism! Lets not judge everything in terms of money and benefit or what I get? Also think about what people are me are getting!! Don't expect politician to think about other unless you do!!!

Jai Hind! Jai Maharashtra!!
