69 th Independence Day

Our 69th Independence day was celebrated, with speech by our Prime Minister.His oratory skills are impressive, he can put on the "accent" of the "ordinary" Indian.He has come up with several slogans describing his policies. But he has not spoken about his foreign policy considering the fact that he has toured 56 countries in last 15 months of his office. Most of the fifteen months he was away. Farmer suicides were high this year, but it is not talked about. He tells about dignity of labor and ID card for laborer. Labor reforms could not come about as labor laws are contradictory.He claims that corruption is zero in last 15 months, but it could be that it is hidden. He also says that its difficult to get rid of corruption. But "lokpal" has not come up and nothing is done on that.
In presenting the report card, he says that there are bank accounts for the poor and Jan Dhan yojna, and there are toilets in schools.He said that there will be loans for the tribals and "dalits". These remain in paper. And every MP was to adopt a village, but that was not done.
What is not done is not spoken of. And during the speech he says "I" did this and "I" did that. Instead of "we" remember that he was away for most of the 15 months touring the world. Although he talks about how he thinks of the poor, he is far away from the poor. And one speech in which he acts like the common man cannot tell the whole truth. IN the speech he tries very hard to touch on the lives of the poor,and to please them. May be he does.Let us see how the fate of India will be......
