man of the masses
by Ramesh Anand on Sep 03, 2009 08:39 PM  | Hide replies

It is surprising that no news itme is mentioning a fact about the life of this hero viz that he was a convert and that he was the man of the christinty and not of the masses as declared in in this article.

Shame on India's technical security apparatus!!!
by Shari on Sep 03, 2009 08:15 PM  | Hide replies

Shame that a helicopter loses contact for a distance of 18km before it's crash and still control centre does not have any signs of what was happening, which just sits dumb in capital city...Pity that it took 24 hours to even locate the spot.

India still greases addressing it's basic needs of Food, Housing(or Security) and Clothing, while a lot of talk goes on India being the next big gaint.

When a leader spanning a 30 year political career cannot be saved for the reasons of technical glitches, our beloved democracy continues to get crippled with accidents. And we continue to leave the destiny of our country to fate.

Hell with the rogues in Indian Administration stuffed with bunch of outdated oldies who neither have any zeal to learn new technology nor passion to contribute in democracy. Enough of these so called technical administrators (or IAS, IES, whoever..) simply passing the blame on political leaders.

Never it happens that a leader (a charismatic person) will emerge unless he gains support of people. Needless to prove time and again that they have made significant contributions, while sailing alongside the trouble makers (who ofcourse will be there everywhere).

AP definetely has lost a contributor, which even made Chandra Babu to rethink on agriculture.

Democracy is great, I salute the leaders.

Don't cry, dear, his death a boon for democracy. He was one of the worst leaders AP can have. The goon, who always bullied. Now about crash, I am dead sure helicopter didnt crash, govt is trying to cover up. They dont want to be harsh on Naxalites.

Good Man... But
by G Venkatram on Sep 03, 2009 07:57 PM

YSR was a good CM and a good leader for Congress. However, I think he may have shown a soft corner to Christians by allowing conversion activities in Tirumala Tirupathi and allowing Churches to be constructed in the vivinity of Tirumala Temple. Conversion to Christianity was very High during his regime. Definitely, it is a great loss for Evangelists as for rest of AP people.

I personally met him. He is very charismatic.
by Jagdish Reddy on Sep 03, 2009 07:39 PM  | Hide replies

I personally met him when he came to my sister-in-law's wedding. He is very charismatic, I strongly believe he cared for the poor farmers. In Cuddapah, life is really tough for poor farmers as it is almost a desert unlike the coastal districts. It is also really hot. I also visited Pulivendula. As far as I remember, he runs a hospital there, they charge only a rupee for patients to get doctor;s consultation. This was long ago. Not sure, if he was still doing it.
There is good and bad in everyone. I would like to remember him for the good he did for the poor farmers in AP as I come from a farmer's family.

To reach the masses. He was going there to talk to the farmer's to learn their needs. As a leader, it is part of your job. The cost of travelling by air is not too expensive compared to driving. It is cost of the helicopter that is high. But you can not avoid it, can you?

Probably more would have died had he not the CM. Giving free electricity for the poor farmers was a good step. Giving rice for Rs2/- is also a good step (Continuation on NTR policy). You will understand if you are one of them. Getting rid off loan sharks, cancelling small loans based on the rains, all these all help. You do not see a poor farmer's postings on this website, right?
Some people posting with hate at the time of death of someone, is not fair.

Re: Re: Re: I personally met him. He is very charismatic.
by KRISHNAMURTHY V on Sep 03, 2009 08:59 PM
It is only because of our attitude to get everything free without having to work for it, that corrupt politicians like YSR, Karunanidhi and the like prosper. In gujarat power is not given free to the farmers. The Government facilitates them by increasing the water available and other inputs; so Gujarat has shown a tremendous year-on-year increase in agricultural production, highest in India( see article by Economist Swaminathan Ankleswar Iyer's article in Economic times). Moveover Farmers committed suicide because they had taken loans at exhorbitant rates of interest from the Loan sharks and not from the banks; and in the name of writing off of farmer's loans politicians looted money. No poor farmer benefited. So pls be fair when you comment. It is bad to talk ill of a person who is dead; but you cannot call him a saint too !

During the biggest Irish famine of last century, English decided not to provide free food, but make them work on extreme winter laying roads for food (potatoes), thousands died. That is how there are so many Irish in US.
You need to be in a poor farmer's shoes to understand what they mean. These are the steps he followed for immediate relief. I think they are good steps. If you think of something better, why don't you post them? and also say how you want to achieve them.

Yes-most of the guys posting msgs are not from AP. And a few of them from are mostly from Hyderabad, who have no chance to witness the benefits reaching the poor and farmers in remote villages. I am also from Hyderabad, but my work is such that I visit villages, in all the regions of AP, and am a witness to the benefits(I am not eligible-so naturally don't get)received and enjoyed by the real needy.

He might have done some good deeds for few people at the cost of many others suffured from his corruption practises. By the way he only got 30 % of votes, not even close to half of the total votes. I don't know when people wud come out of their own nut shell and see the truth as it is from a broader perspective. BTW, i am from AP and Hyd and know many from rural Telangana. He own because of Andhraites feared they might lose Hyderabad and voted for him even though they like Babu more..

His actions increased the prices of land in HYD...and you support him because the prices of land in other is also very high...he sold almost every GOVT land in HYD and many places...i remember when YSR asked HUDA to sell a land in jubliee hills, an IAS officer argued him not to sell that land as there no more givt land in that area and GOVT need that land for setting offices...but still that land was sold to real estate people..and now Mr.icshyderabad supports this action saying YSR used that moeny he got from selling the land to give free power and 2kg rice....

My condolences to the family members, the death was tragic, regrettable.

But I will not agree about people making him a martyr saying that we lost a GREAT leader.
Sorry, AP became the most corrupt state under his rule, it seems noone can even estimate the wealth he has amassed, he is supposed to be one of richest having millions or even billions with properties stacked everywhere including abroad.
For all the money they swallow by becoming leaders, I do not want grieve at his death, but as a human being, yes, very sorry that someone had to die in this tragic manner.

by practical indian on Sep 03, 2009 07:23 PM  | Hide replies

Guys,
I can understand someone faulting CM but it is not good to bash Christians in general. Some people may try to convert and stuff but Christians in general are really peaceful and do not resort to any violence. They always believe in helping everyone irrespective of religion. I am a Hindu but I have had instances of getting helped in unknown places by unknown people, both the times by some church fathers (I don't know whether it is a coincidence or not). That does not mean that I will convert into a Christian. But, as a true Hindu, I love and respect all religions.
May peace prevail !!!!

Mr Bishwnath (Non Practical Indian) please understand why the North East folks got converted. They were untouchables as Tribals and not allowed to participate in any social activities where the Hindu upper caste existed. They were not allowed to enter Temples and given any respect. This is the main reason the Church took advantage and converted them. What has RSS done to educate Scheduled Caste, Tribals in the 1930's and 40's? Now BJP exists from 1960's or from 1970's and what have they done until recently they have started calling for inclusiveness. Suddenly everyone has become a Hindu. First learn something - the Tribals and Scheduled Caste people have to put something in Religion and they say we are "Hindus". If they have to really feel they are Hindus, the Upper caste people will need to look deep into the sins of the paste and change their attitude. Don't blame Church and Pakistan and China for all your problems.
