Common man saying com’on mr prime minister.....


India achieved the GDP rate of 7.4 , greater than the expected 7.2 in the financial year 2009-10 ,that too in the time when the most of the largest economies are still fighting the great recession . Kudos to our PM Manmohan Singh , thanks to his rare skills in the economics . But do the common man cares what this GDP is telling ? Does it really concern the common people ? or is this GDP making their life a bit easier ? The answer is the big NO .

Let this GDP be the greatest achievement of our Finance minister Mr. Pranab dada, seems to be the most happy person on the planet . But what to do with this GDP when the general people finds it difficult to buy the full ration for his family. does it make a common person happy who travels by public transport after declaration of surge of 10 % in automobile sector .Instead they will curse the fuel price rise which makes their daily destination more costlier with the pay scale being same (siding six pay scale revision for the govt. employees) .will like to highlight the statement of dada in his budget speech “'Aam admi' is the focus of all our programmes and schemes . on one hand Mamta Banerjee reduced the the freights rates for the essential food commodity in order to help to reduce prices and parallel ly our finance minster in his budget instead of extending the support to the Mamta’s initiation, increased the prises of petrol and diesel . i mean stop using the aam aadmi for the political benifits .our finance minister should understand that the common man doesn’t need the reduction of prices of tech gadgets . what they need is the easy food , cheaper clothes and enough shelter just to accommodate on earth .

Price rise is at its peak of all time .The prices of all commodities of basic needs have risen to the factor of more than two to three. Rice which was the most favoured food of the major part country is becoming too far from the mouth .every food commodities right from the cereals to vegetables have become 100 -200 % costlier in previous three four years . Sugar prises has almost tripled in recent years , when our agricultural minister was asked about the same , he replied ”nothing would happen if people does not eat sugar also it causes diabetes ” what an answer from the agricultural minister .Is this the mimicry show . Should a agricultural minister of the agricultural country give such an irresponsible comments. when a country is not in surplus position she shouldn’t encourage the export of the food commodities ,instead import should be the option to mobilize the price rise . Also the shortage isn’t the complete reason for the surging of prises rather its the black-marketing (forced shortage) done by the retailers and suppliers . A simple price restriction law can be the best option with the government deciding the rate according to the market scenario. A advice to mr Powar , “ take away some time from the BCCI office and give it to the ministry, the prise will come down for sure “ and stop making excuse by declaring the monsoon the sole responsible for the inflation . Yes a bad monsoon can affect the price for a year or two ,but not for the continuous period of four-five years .

Com’on Mr. Prime minister where are u? Economist of your calibre is expected to take the country out of this situation . atleast do for the sake of your promises made during elections ”congress kaa haath aam aadmi ke saath”.PLZ
