Chidambaram Eyes For Sensex Only
NOT ON FARMER SUICIDES

http://zubani.blogspot.com/
It seems Shri Chidambaram, Indian Finance Minister, has made up his mind.He and the Congress, have no time for even listening to the complaints of the suicidal cotton farmers of Vidarbha, much less, addressing the issue of the siphoning of agricultural surplus from Indian villages. Now the question is whether this neglect of Indian farmers by the central Congress government, will have any political impact on the image, of Shrimati Sonia Gandhi amongst rural voters or not. In the short run it certainly will not. The mood of the voters shows that she is still considered the rahanuma of the Indian villages. Kishor Tiwari of Vidarbha JanAndolan Samiti is returning empty handed to Vidarbha after not even being considered for a meeting with Shri Chidambaram. Apparently, Shri Chidambaram is busier attracting European pension funds to invest in Indian stock markets rather than responding to the mental health of farmers in the cotton belts of India. He does have a point too though. After all India needs to emulate China in a very short time and this is the economic model being vigourously pursued by the Oxbridge economists in charge of economic policy making. Moreover, he feels he really does not have any role to play in addressing the situation of Indian farmers and the rising debt levels.
Yes, of course, when Shri Sharad Pawar is looking after the Agriculture Ministry and taking care of the sugar farmers, why should Shri Chidambaram feel the need to open his mouth. His remit is the IRS bureaucracy, the stock markets and providing funds for 6 lanes highways to run from the southern ports to the rural hinterland in the north. He has to merely point out the figures of investment in rural infrastructure and leave the rest to Shri Pawar to take care of. \nShri Sharad Pawar is of course busy trying to reconcile the impossible conflict, in his dual role as Agriculture Minister of India and seeing if Indian farmers are able to sell their produce in the market, and buying food for urban consumers in southern India at the cheapest prices, in his role as a Food Minister of India. He surely has a tough job and when one considers that he also has the unenviable tasks of justifying the high levels of pesticides in the milk that Indian mothers have to feed to their children, and backing the return to form of Saurav Ganguly in Indian cricket, one cannot but feel that such immense responsibilities are being thrust at him. How will he cope with all of these roles ? \nAt least someone must rise to the ocassion and come to the rescue of Shri Sharad Pawar as he juggles between his various important roles in the central government.And who else will it be if not the suicidal farmers of Vidarbha ? \nMaybe the farmers of Vidarbha, have to repay many debts of past lives, to Shri Sharad Pawar and they have to do it in this lifetime.So who is going to foot the electoral bill in the next elections ? Yes this will surely begin to cause sleepless nights for some of the people in Congress circles who are well connected with the rural mood. \n\n",0]
