The increasing attention that Mr Manmohan Singh and other leaders from the UPA and the NDA give to the criticism of the left parties raises suspicion that they are afraid that the left will get a larger share this time. However, some of us are amused by Mr Singh's observation that the left parties are on the wrong side of history. We hope that our honourable Prime Minister has not forgotten that his government was in power for four yrears with this 'wrong sided' group! We also hope that he has not forgotten (though he never says in public) that the Indian economy has survived the gobal meltdown largely because of the left's consistent opposition to his plan of opening up India's capital sector (including banking and insurance) to the global players. Thanks to the left, while the American companies are firing or reducing salaries of the employees, the employees in India have actually been blessed with a pay hike. We would also like to know whether he still calls the left 'dinosaur' for refusing to agree to invest the pension and PF funds in the capital market. With the sensex falling from 25000 to 9500, can he imagine what would have happened to the retired people of India if the left had not stopped him?

now u can conclude like this and left will tell " hum bole the na!?" means in every step of govt. whether it is bad or good, left will first of all , object! then if the proposal is passed and then it is successful, left will embrace it shamelessly(remember computerization!) and if the proposal is unsuccessful after passing, then left has the double win, in house and outer house(public) it's total disgusting that after so much dirtiest play with bengal , kerala where the states have now from top to bottom, still how they r voting them and supporting like harmohan! shame to those people as they r also a part of anti-nationalism! if left has the guts to bring the nation forward with their planning, proposal then why they r not accepting in governence at centre? now, u will tell that this time they created third front and will be in power if won! just remember previous story of third front when left did not take the responsibility! this time they have found the people bad response to them! so, to escape from answering they created third front , so they can tell now, u vote us and we will be in power at center and so, to reserve their seats at center and ultimately they will again join UPA to restrict so called communal forces! and again the same game will be played before voting! they will tell this time that we were not in power as we r not in majority and u give us majority, they we will accept power at centre,what will never come but left will be able to secure seats!

mr.antulay. you people live, take food from this land, you are given all the support from government and indian people, finally you help the terrorist and k1ll the innocent people of India and finally blame the Indian people. now this is the reason that hate is increasing
If he really thinks he is a strong PM, he shold fight the Lok Sabha elections. What a joke that a chap who has never won an election is the PM candidate in a parliamentary democracy. Sonia ko acha chamcha mila hai. What has he done on his own in the last 5 years to be called strong (without consent from Sonia). Add to the hypocracy, the congress is projecting Rahul as the next leader. Baki sab nikamme hain kya. The truth is that Sonia deliberately wants a weak leader, so that the seat can be reserved for Rahul. If they bring in strong man like Pranab Babu, he will do his own, and danger the dynasty. Simple logic.

fighting a lok sabha election does not go on to show strength. When MMS stood for the Lok Sabha elections in South Delhi, the so called intellectuals or the upper class people rejected him although his popularity as the saviour of indias economy was at its peak. elections are fought in india in local issues and not on national issues. Thats why the coalition era. By the way the main qualification of a politician is chamchagiri, without which no politician can survive.
WITH A HEAVY HEART I AM LEAVING NOW.TOMMOROW "SON OF INDIA"RAHULJI IS COMING TO BAPUJI's ASHRAM SO I WILL BE GOING NOW.MEENAKSHI MEENAKSHI MEENASKHI MEENAKSHI MENNAKSHI I AM GOING I AM GOING I AM GOING I MISS U I MISS U
By describing the left on the wrong side of history Dr.Singh has not only displayed poor taste but also his loss memory of his schooltime history lessons.The 2nd World War was being fought by the Allied forces against the Nazis and that is why although the communists were fighting the British on Indian Soil they supported the allied forces' war effort.Coming the questions of left not supporting development I have a limited question---who supported Mamata Banerjee in her anti industrialisation movement in WB? Why did successive congress Govts take so much time to clear the Salt lake Electronics Complex at Kolkata? Who imported parthenium with wheat from USA?
In the aspect of secularism ---who opened the gates of Babari Masjid? Who killed thousands of Sikhs in 1984? Who is reponsible for the fate of Shah Bano case?
Dr. Singh may kindly remember and feel ashamed that he is the Prime Minister of this great country and it only shows us in poor light when the distorts and perverts history.

what you are saying is not an answer or a contradiction to the leftist activities. The Left has been been a bane rather than a boon. If West Bengal has lost out on indutrilaism, the lefts have been primarily responsible. Not forgetting their closeness to China. Dont forget that the silence of the lefts on the Indo-China war is for all to see. I dont condone the acts of the Congress. But in comparison to the lefts, it seems to be the lesser of evils.

Then pl read "Two leaves and a Bud" or "Coolie" by Mulk Raj Anand and understand how the labour class was exploited.

i have readtwo leaves and a bud, its incidently a story of a laborer in a tea plantation in Assam being expoited by his British bosses. i speak of the government run by the lefts, which speak of its pro labor stance, but has done little to allevate their problems.

Whether British or Indian, the capitalists always exploited the labour class. The Trade Union of Congress party (INTUC) always sabotaged the struggle of the working class. It was only due to the persistent efforts of the Communists that the working class was able to extract some benefits for them.
