In India,
the name of Gandhi family is taken with a lot of respect. 'Father of Nation'
Mahatma Gandhi (M.K. Gandhi) is one of the key leaders in the struggle to get
the freedom of India. After Independence in 1947, Jawaharlal Nehru takes the
oath as the first Prime Minister. Later his daughter Indira Gandhi became the
Prime Minister. There were many good and bad things India went thru in her era.
After the assassination of Indira, the Gandhi name was taken forward by her son
Rajiv Gandhi. Rajiv Gandhi bough many good changes and the people of India
praised his work as Prime Minister. In late 80’s elections, he was also
assassinated. Then there was a gap in the Indian political history where no
Gandhi was directly involved. Then came the era where the leading political
party –Congress- start losing the shine and then they approached the Sonia
Gandhi (widow of Rajiv Gandhi). Sonia Gandhi, although not willing to join due
to past 2 assassination happened in the family. But as the Congress was losing
the shine and many veterans congress leaders trying to convince her, then she
join the congress party and on their request became one of the key leaders of
the party. In the following elections congress fought the elections under the
leadership of the Sonia Gandhi. With the emotional wave of Gandhi's
assassination and some good work done by Indira and Rajiv, congress was able to
make thru the elections and eventually came into the power with collation
government. As Sonia is not the natural born citizen of India and still holds
the Italy citizenship and so as her children – Priyanka Gandhi Vadra and Rahul
Gandhi. There was huge retaliation and opposition from the opposition parties
in accepting the Sonia Gandhi as the Prime Minister of the majority elected
party (UPA). Eventually Dr. Manmohan Singh (a person with the clean image and
economist) was made the Prime Minister.
In last 10
years, under UPA, the country is looted more than Britishers looted India in
their 200 years of tenure. UPA government and opposition parties were simply
sitting silent and scam after scam hit the country. The inflation hit the
country immensely, poorer got poorer and richer got richer. There were many
allegations on the opposition political party (NDA/BJP) which are often
considered to be in bed with the ruling political party (INC/UPA) - means both
the ruling party and opposition parties are together doing the scams and
looting the natural resources and public collected taxes through various dummy
schemes. As per various government schemes, the money has been sanctioned for
the public welfare, but that money never reached to the public and it is only
on government documents.
The one of
the example is of Amethi, Uttarpradesh - where the ruling party Gandhi scion is
Member of Parliament (MP) for last 10 years and Gandhi's hold this seat for
more than 3 decades (Amethi constituency election is won by Gandhi family). If
we look at the current state of the Amethi, it is lacking hugely in
development, literacy, per capita income, infrastructure, education, health
care and many other basic amenities like water, road, electricity etc. It
appears Amethi is still standing 100 years old India. If this is the condition
of the constituency from where the Gandhi family is ruling for last 3 decades,
one can understand what they have done to India in the name of so called
"Gandhi Surname". They misused the surname and befooled the public of
India.
With the
2014 elections on the verge, there were a lot of predictions made by the
election gurus that Rahul is going to face defeat. Other main opponents in
Amethi are Smriti Irani (representing BJP) and Dr. Kumar Viswas of
(representing Aam Aadmi Party (AAP)). Both Smriti and Kumar has bought to the
notice of the public and the nation the lack of development, higher illiteracy
rate, poverty among people, lack of Healthcare -hospitals, Schools &
Colleges in the region and even the non-existence of the basic amenities in
Amethi like water, road and electricity. The money shown as welfare funds to be
utilize for public and it is only on the government paper; ground reality is
something else.
Interestingly
so far both the leading parties (Congress & BJP) fight election in
collaboration (although they show they are opponents but do the politics of
convenience). One party makes other party candidate to win thereby
intentionally not making any of their candidates to fight election against
other. If at times, they do, they make sure weak candidate is standing against
Rahul Gandhi. There were a lot of predictions made by the election gurus that
Rahul is going to face defeat. There are bright prospects for the Aam Aadmi
Party candidate Dr. Kumar Viswas. As a result Congress is using all their power
to win the seat of Amethi thereby using muscle, government machinery, money
power [Saam (the process of pacifying), Daam (the process of giving money),
Dand (the principle of punishment/attack) and Bhed (the principle of
dividing)]. There were many attacks happening on the newly 1.5 years old party
leaders. Dr. Kumar Viswas (Amethi seat) is being frequently attacked by the
Congress goons. But Election commission is doing nothing – just shut their eyes
and ears. Even the Supreme Court of India is mull on the unfairness. There is a
conspiracy with the help of government machinery (police and other
administration) thereby capturing the election booths and rig the election
machines. Rahul Gandhi Congress candidate is using all his powers to harass his
opponents.
Rahul's brother-in-law, Robert Vadra, who was disclosed in the Million dollars in lands scam across India. There is no action happened on him and is moving freely with a treatment of a VIP. Gandhi family is trying to save him and the opposition parties is playing the politics of convenience thereby taking no action against him as they are also the joint partner in all the scams. Under Gandhi's leadership party they have looted nation's Coal mines, Natural Gas wells, rivers, Telecom scam, exploit people through imposing alot of new taxes and many other billion dollars scams.
There are
various questions arises why there was not any development happen in Amethi?,
what is Gandhi’s scion doing for last one decade [he is Minister of Parliament
(MP) for last 10 years]?, if this is the condition of Amethi how one can expect
the Gandhi's lead Congress party (Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi) will do any
good for the rest of India? Why Gandhi’s have not made any development in
Amethi -so called Nehru Gandhi political dynasty? Does Gandhi’s operating
Amethi like the British era of Indian treatment? Is it intentional to keep
using Amethi as vote bank but don’t make any progress thereby keeping them
backward, with power and money muscle at the time of elections (keep people
illiterate, with poor infrastructure, huge unemployment, not even a clean
drinking water). Are these new generations are fake Gandhi's who are using the
respected surname of 'Father of Nation' Mahatma Gandhi for their benefit? Are
these modern generation Gandhi's looting the country unlike the prospering
nation dream that father of nation has seen and fought for the freedom of
Indians? Does the patriotism of this generation Gandhi is deluded with their
greed of power, money and arrogance?
