Government Officials say that, in all, about 6 million tonnes of grain worth at least $1.5 billion could perish. Analysts say the losses could be far higher because more than 19 million tonnes are now lying in the open, exposed to searing summer heat and monsoon rains
An open, honest and unprejudiced view of the word REFORM. Thought provoking too in that the word can be misused to promote one's own agenda. And the subtle humor makes for interesting reading !! Thanks Ajith !! Hope you come out with more such articles !!!
Reform means different things to different situations based on how situations came about.
In India , reform is about cutting down Govt's participation in economic activity & reducing the excessive restriction on business and all that tax on people.
For example he Govt talk about it subsidizing diesel is a plain bluff because tax revenue is very, very, very high.
political managers should reform themselves first! they should give up the corrupt earnings, decide the issues without narrow parochial concerns, give up advocating and supporting dynastic politics, encourage entrepreuners, the people who think out of box, discourage religious caste, ethnic politic by being real secular, in thought, action and soul.
This article has the typical leftist motives. Without going in to details of each issue the writer has adopted a generalistic approach. Whatever progress India has made in last two decades is due to liberlization.
Comparison with the US is totally irrelevant. The two economies have very few similarities in terms of politics and economics.
Please do not try to misguide people with your distorted and malicious views. The one simple fact in India is this. India has so much corruption because it has so many restrictions. The reforms will bring down corruption when govt officials and ministers will have less powers to control.
