FOCUS OF INDIAN POLITICS MAY SHIFT TOWARDS ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND SOCIAL UPLIFTMENT AFTER AUGUST 05, 2020.

FOCUS OF INDIAN POLITICS MAY SHIFT TOWARDS ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND SOCIAL UPLIFTMENT AFTER AUGUST 05, 2020.


  It is believed as well as hoped that August 05, 2020 ( Wednesday ) the day on which the foundation stone of the Magnificent Ram Temple is laid at Ayodhya ( which is being organized by the newly formed Trust for construction of the Ram Temple ), will be the deciding point of time after which the focus of Indian politics may shift towards economic development and social upliftment, and curtain would possibly fall in a large part of the “ Kamandal Rajneeti “ (  the Politics of Pilgrimage ) in India. After the foundation stone laying function on August 05, 2020; it would be certain that a Ram Temple at Ayodhya will be constructed and it goes without saying in certain terms that it would get completed in due course. Hence the public as well as political anxiety existing for a very long time and the uncertainty about the Ram Temple at Ayodhya that existed for a long time won’t be there and this nerve of anxiety can no more be available for political consumption and building of a political capital out of it to be used in electioneering. Also in parallel, as per the relevant judgment of the Supreme Court of India, as per the news reported, a  5-acre plot has been duly handed over on 1st August 2020 to the newly formed trust constituted by Sunni Waqf Board for construction of a New Mosque at about 20kms distance from the site of the Ram Temple around Ayodhya and in the same district. Thus a New Mosque will also come up in Ayodhya in due course. Thus the anxiety around Ayodhya that persisted and carried forward for a long period of time would lose existence for public or political consumption in India. Historically, post-independence, the politics in India predominantly focused around :

a) A period of “ Post-independence Rebuilding and Consolidation” from Aug 15, 1947 until late 1980s , say from Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, Shri Lal Bahadur Shastri, Smt Indira Gandhi until Shri Rajiv Gandhi as the Prime Ministers.

b) a short period in 1980s and early 1990s where in drifting took place in the name of “ Mandal Commission Report “ popularly known as “ Mandal Rajneeti“ ( Mandal Politics ) started during PM Shri V P Singh but got wound up soon. 

c) around the same time (Mandal time ), the theme of construction of Ram Temple at Ayodhya took a serious turn in politics in India and a strong branch of political affiliation concerning Pilgrimage of Ayodhya raised head ( which was  popularly called as “Kamandal Rajneeti” then ( or Politics of Pilgrimage ). Since then a large part of politics India ( in the major bi-party or multiparty politics of India ) has centered around the Ram Temple at Ayodhya and it became a large public as well as political anxiety for the very broader and unstinted faith that a large sized population of Indians across social strata, have for Lord Ram ( of epic Ramayan ) as a revered deity; it traveled all along and in parallel through periods of PM-Shri P V Narasimha Rao, Shri Atal Behari Bajpayee, Dr. Manmohan Singh as PMs and continued thereafter with Shri Narendra Modi as PM  till date with cognizable persistence as well. This theme was first converted to a public anxiety and by that it got converted to a political capital for electioneering thereafter, and though many remarkable incidents happened in the due course of its journey that can not be erased out of history of India. 

With Supreme Court of India deciding on land dispute of Ayodhya and passing on a final judgment in 2019, allotting the specified land for the Ram Temple and alternative land for a new mosque, had put larger part of the anxiety of the politics of the pilgrimage and also the public anxiety ( that used to get converted to political anxiety ) to rest.

Further the foundation stone laying for construction of the Ram Temple on August 05, 2020 and also the new mosque getting constructed at allotted alternative land site in due course, would put the anxiety of Indian public ( as well as politics ) for Ayodhya, to permanent rest.

Ayodhya, with the new Magnificent Ram Temple and a New Mosque coming up in due course there, would get in the Tourism Map of India with an elevated and preferred rank. A trade of tourism and profound pilgrimage is likely to flourish in Ayodhya, that possibly may become comparable to some best tourism and pilgrimage destinations in India or in the world. The pilgrimage that was busy in politicking in Ayodhya or in India in general,  around Ayodhya anxiety for decades together ( at least 4-decades ) would hopefully remain solaced and contented with the new and upcoming fortune at Ayodhya.   Hopefully, after August 05, 2020; a large contingent of energy that was getting diverted and engaged around Ayodhya anxiety would find use in India for economic development and social upliftment. With curtain largely falling on a large part of “ Kamandal Rajneeti” ( Politics of Pilgrimage ), it is believed that the focus of politics would shift seriously and intensively towards economic development and social upliftment in India. Let there be a rule in India wherein a single innocent citizen should not be persecuted and prosecuted, and if it can be ensured that could be the best tribute to all great gods ( including Lord Ram ).  Let us hope for the best.

DR. V. KURIEN HAD SOME QUALITIES LESS PUBLISHED (TRIBUTE ON HIS DEATH ANNIVERSARY ON 09 SEPTEMBER)

  DR. V. KURIEN HAD SOME QUALITIES LESS PUBLISHED         (TRIBUTE ON HIS DEATH ANNIVERSARY ON 09 SEPTEMBER) Based on my direct experience and interaction in person with Dr. Verghese Kurien ( in short well known as Dr. V. Kurien ), popularly celebrated as the Milk Man of India or the Father of White Revolution of India, the former Chairman of GCMMF Ltd. ( Gujarat Co-operative Milk Marketing Federation Limited-Amul ) and the former Chairman of National Dairy Development Board ( of India) as well as recipient of World Food Prize, I honourably place few lines as some qualities Dr. Kurien had but normally less published, as tribute to Dr. V.

In 1989, I used to work as a Branch Manager in charge of Patna (Undivided Bihar then) Office of Gujarat Co-operative Milk Marketing Federation Limi...

THE MENACE OF BLOCKING AND MUTING IN SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS

THE MENACE OF BLOCKING AND MUTING  IN SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS  The biggest nuisance in Social Medial Platforms today is the Hooliganism of Blocking and Muting by the Administrators. The Democratic Principles and Freedom of Speech of the Members of Social Media Groups are being attacked by vested interests. Some persons having vested interests and nexus acquire Administrator/Moderator rights in the social media groups and use that administrator rights to terrorize the members of blocking and muting.  The Administrators of Vested Interests create a group of hooligans around them to exploit the situation and realize the best returns for their vested interests. Those Administrators also create a group of their supporters by placating them by lure of various means. Those hooligans thus created by the Administrators of vested interest try to attack and intimidate the Upright and Honest members who genuinely and diligently raise voice against exploitation of the situation by th...

WHEN PROTEGES DEFY AND CROSS THE PATH OF THEIR MENTORS, BOUND TO REMAIN IN SOME POOR LIGHT IN THE TIME LINE OF HISTORY

  WHEN PROTEGES DEFY AND CROSS THE PATH OF THEIR MENTORS,  BOUND TO REMAIN IN SOME POOR LIGHT IN THE TIME LINE OF HISTORY   The meaning of “Protege” is a person who is guided and supported by an older and more experienced or influential person. The older and more experienced or influential person who guides and supports for the progress of a protege is called as a “Mentor”. Most of the times, the Mentors try to project and promote their proteges to act as their successors as well. In an article published in “The Chronicle of Evidence-based Mentoring” on September 13, 2015 written by Jean Rhodes, the following 25-Top and Celebrated Mentoring examples of recent times were cited and I am placing here under the quotes: Quote : 1. Best known for her talk show The Oprah Winfrey Show, Oprah Winfrey was mentored by celebrated author and poet, the late Maya Angelou. “She was there for me always, guiding me through some of the most important years of my life,” Winf...

DO YOU THROW EMPTY POUCHES OF MILK WASHED OR UNWASHED? THROW IT WASHED AND BE CONSIDERATE FOR THE HUMAN SOCIETY AND THE ENVIRONMENT

  DO YOU THROW EMPTY POUCHES OF MILK WASHED OR UNWASHED? THROW IT WASHED AND BE CONSIDERATE FOR THE HUMAN SOCIETY AND THE ENVIRONMENT   What I am writing in this article might or might not have been noticed or considered by many, however it has lot of importance for the human society and environment at large. Only being aware of and giving few seconds to wash the empty milk pouches by water after you drain the milk out of it for your consumption and before you throw it into your trash bin or any where would help the environment and the society at large.  Kindly consider the facts I am presenting below. In India, right now about 62million litres ( 62,000,000 litres ) of liquid milk is being sold per day ( every day ) in plastic pouches which the people all around are buying on daily basis. About 70% of it in 500ml  Plastic Pouch Packing and 30% of it in 1Litre Plastic Pouch Packing. That means about 43.4 million litres in 500ml pouch and 18.6 million litre...

THE FARMERS OF CO-OPERATIVE DAIRIES OR DAIRY FARMERS WOULD NEVER DITCH AGRICULTURE FARMERS’ INTEREST

THE FARMERS OF CO-OPERATIVE DAIRIES OR DAIRY FARMERS WOULD NEVER DITCH AGRICULTURE FARMERS’ INTEREST I am a bit surprised, that repeatedly, articles and statements are being published in the internet in the name of a sitting Chief Executive of one of the Largest Co-operative Dairy Federations of India, that are quite  inconsistent with the interest of the Farmers of India, whether they may be Agriculture Farmers or any other fields allied to Agriculture. His views may be personal for targeting any interest he may have, however, I am sure his views are never representing the Dairy Co-operatives or Dairy Farmers of India. Categorically in an article published in the internet, he states that there is no MSP(Minimum Support Price) in Dairy (Milk), Fisheries and Poultry by giving a cryptic and satiric look to the   MSP prevalent for Agricultural Crops to assist the farmers growing food crops for the 1300 million population India has to feed right now. Further he says as ...

WIDOWHOOD HAS A LIFE WHICH HAS TO BE LET LIVE DIGNIFIED AND RESPECTFULLY

  WIDOWHOOD HAS A LIFE WHICH HAS TO BE LET LIVE DIGNIFIED AND RESPECTFULLY             I have been motivated to write on such a topic which could also be quite sensitive; since I read reports publicly published globally that during Covid-19, the fatality (death) of men is around two times that of women. It means the number of men who have died (also continuing to pass away) is twice that of women who have died (also continuing to pass away in the same ratio). That means, the number of married women who have lost their husbands would be twice the number of married men who have lost their wives and thus a large number of widows have been placed in the society during Covid-19 pandemic. Since this phenomenon came to my attention, I have been doing some research about how the people of such large number who are getting widowed would be conducting in the society, as historically a widow has a very constricted environment in the society; to operate cultural...
