YASWANT SINHA FORMER FINANCE MIISTER EXPLODES BOMB... IS THE GOVT ASTRAY?
DR K PRABHKAR RAO
When higher note currency was demonetized.in India by Govt of Modiji many finance experts including Dr Man Mohan Singh the Ex PM and former RBI governor, Mr Reddy and other former RBI governors and Amartya Sen the Nobel laureate condemned the action as hasty and weird and sinful. Forbes the famous US magazine in a strong article called the actions as a mere sinful loot of own citizens.. However Modiji and his finance minister Arun Jetley looked other way. Now their own very senior member Yashwant Sinha former FM in Bajpaijis govt fired the gun boldly and condemned the action of demonetization and GST and targeted Jetley and Modiji. This is a grave development indeed for the over confident ruling Party. At present , opposition has no leader of eminence and Rahul of Congress is clueless and is considered as man of no consequence and instable disposition..
When death fast approaches,it is said in India that the jackal i.e ' Geedad ' runs towards the town' . It is an apt saying as PM Modi will never think of replacing Jaitly. Instead he gives additional portfolio like defense that is also screwed up well.. The time has come for public to react to show their anger in the ensuing elections. If Modi doesn't replace by a a new FM, the party will evaporate in thin air. People are quite aware of Modi's failures like Demonetization, introduction of GST, OROP for Armed Forces, Orders issuing for engaging Indian Army to clean up the garbage from all hills and forward areas, shortage of arms and ammunition and other war like equipment etc, etc.Former army chief Gen VK Singh clearly warned govt while in service that Army was not well equipped and does not have stock of ammunition even for a week's war. The same was also pointed out by the CAG report. In all probabilities these warnings were ignored. Now the former General a member of BJP is a state minister for external affairs and has no voice. Earlier he was a minister of satte with independent charge for development of eastern states. However the portfolio was later handed over to another politician and VK singh was cut to size.He has nothing to do with Defense portfolio although he deserved it.. He accepted an inferior post unworthy of a former General . Modi should wake up at the earliest rather than to keep increasing his swelling chest and keep giving sermons over MUNKI BAAT ( My thoughts). Ms Seetharaman the new MOD needs to realize that Armed Forces have a definite role to play the vital role of defending the country and not repeat not area cleaning short of scavenger duties to be a bit respectful to our forces,.. They should take a leaf out of 1962 war with China and reasons for losing the war and learn lessons from history. China has greatly improved although we boasted that India was no 1962 type. The recent border showdown for few months is a warning. China is not going to give up its claim over disputed areas and occupied territories. It will wait for an opportunity to strike. It is Ok that most of the world nations backed India and china assessed the situation and backed out. India is also a nuclear state although no match to china..
Present day Generals and other Chiefs of Air Force and Navy must speak out courageously and demand the rulers what they want for keeping themselves fit for fighting wars with enemy countries.Navy is suffering from accidents. We need persons like General Hanut Singh a rare breed of Generals who was a GOC and was courageous to give orders to CGDA not to ask unit Commanders for reasons for audit objections as they themselves were responsible and accountable and his unit commanders are meant for their primary role of maintaining fitness to fight all the time. We need such generals and not sycophants. trying to grab carrots suspended in front of their mouths.
The recent reports have clearly stated that the national growth has come down and is attributed to the Modi reforms. Now the leaders are defensive and state that any bold reforms face problems and people have to bear it. On the whole, situation is not good and encouraging where Defense forces appear to have low morale due to controversial decisions such as with drawl of free rations at selected places, OROP problems, Status problems of defense officers etc and insufficient military equipment, ammunition etc. God bless us from another calamity of 1962 war with chinese along with Pakistan onslaught from west and north.
