The 23rd Government in India headed by BJP's Narendra Modi and Amit Shah was formed in May end 2019 after the general parliament elections in which they bagged a victory which none including them ever expected. There are many people who still strongly believe that the stunning victory of Modi's second term was the result of the undue support of the various government departments including the election commission of India, the disintegration of the EVMs and large scale irregularities reported at the counting centers/strong rooms etc. 

According to people's opinions, the first Modi government which literally caused irreparable damage to the country appears determined to carry on and  complete some agenda during this second term in a hurry. There are many people belonging to all walks of life, organisations, communities, medias, journalists, political parties, thinkers, writers and true patriots inside and outside the country watching with anxiety the plight of the country and its diminishing values, ideologies and economy. Many people are of the opinion that the constitution of India which is considered as one of the best in the world will be altered and changed according to the convenience of some rulers. Even though no constitutional amendments are officially initiated, secularism appears as if it does not exist and communal unrest and disharmony is prevailing in most parts of the country particularly in the central and some northers states.

There are many impartial people who fear that the Modi government is working slowly for the abolition of Democracy in India and to make the system of Indian government similar to that of North Korea or China when they see all opposition leaders are witch-hunted using the machinery of the state. This is to send a terror signal to the other political leaders either to attract them to the BJP fold in a cheap and unethical manner or to shut their mouths without criticising the government or its party or leaders.

The leaders of opposition representing all political parties (except those formally or informally backing the NDA's moves) in the country are aware that they will be booked under some fake cases shortly. So every day one can witness leaders belonging to other political parties jumping to the BJP fold for safety, security, immunity and prosperity.

The recent dramatic incidents shown to arrest top Congress leaders P Chidambaram and D K Shivkumar is a warning to the other political leaders who oppose the whims and fancies of the government. Many national leaders belonging to Congress party and other parties like TMC, AAP, TRS, TDP etc are gripped by fear and are awaiting for the consequences of opposing the BJP.

It is a good and commendable move if a government shows courage to take stern action against corrupt leaders however big they are. But when corrupt people join the BJP, immediately all actions initiated against them will be stopped. This is what had happened in the case of the four Rajya Sabha Members of the Telugu Desam party who joined the BJP after the general elections. When MPs Y S Chowdary, C M Ramesh, T G Venkatesh and G Mohan Rao were in the TDP party they were hunted and raided by the CBI and IT departments, but when they joined the BJP on June 20th 2019, they immediately became धार्मिक and holy and those very departments who were hunting them started saluting them!!! When asked by another leader about this during a TV debate, the BJP chief or spokesman's reply was that they have less members in the Rajya sabha and they need to increases it!

With such unethical, illegal and dishonest activities the BJP is sending an open message to all the leaders of the opposition parties, "if you want to be safe and tension-free, join the BJP or be prepaid to face severe consequences..." 

Who (which leader) will be jumping the party ship next ..?

It can be Shashi Tharoor the Congress MP from Thiruvananthapuram and/or Jyotiraditya Scindia from Madhya Pradesh, or anyone who may think there won't be any political future in their present party and who fears that they can be hunted anytime unless and otherwise they perform the sacred act of party-switching!

Modi Offers 1.65 Lakh Crores for Bihar. No Special Status for A.P..!

The voters in India are often compared to donkeys. Because they can be easily fooled any number of times by the fall promises of the cunning political parties and contestants whose only aim is to remain in power by hook or crook. after the announcement of the election notification, until the election dates these cheats travel (mostly on foot) the length and breadth of his/her constituency with a 70mm smile and deliver attractive poll speeches with a long list of promises. Some of these rogues are seen visiting the huts of the poor and marginalized people and pose for photos and videos as if assisting on their works. Once these frauds secure a victory in the polls, they are never seen again anywhere in the locality for another five years until the schedule of the next elections are announced.

Before the general elections in 2014, the people of new Andhra Pradesh state who were suffering due to the state bifurcation, witnessed some political parties and leaders. The present BJP prime minister Narendra Modi and the TDP chief minister N Chandra Babu Naidu who formed an alliance 9in the last minute) to face the elections vowed repeatedly several times that they will see that A.P state be granted 'special status' at least for a period of 10 years, if they are elected to power.

Now the people gave them a clear verdict believing their poll promises but they are not seen bothered about the concern of the people or welfare of the state as they are confident that their position is solid for a term of five years.

The announcement of Prime minister Modi and his BJP government at the center today, promising a whopping special package of one crore sixty five lakh crores rupees (Rs. 1,65,000,0000000) to Bihar State is clearly seen and opined by the political analyzers as an election stunt by prime minister Modi who wants to pave way to is party's success in the upcoming Bihar state elections somehow. People also feel that such pre-poll promises are just an eyewash that may not be and need not be fulfilled.

This announcement has made the people of Andhra Pradesh spellbound, who have been pleading the prime minister for special status (pratyeka hoda) for the state since 15 months. This decision of the Central government has greatly irked the people who consider it as an open challenge to the people of Andhra pradesh. People also have started to raise their voice against such anti-people activities of the parties and persons who won in the elections realizing the deceit in the pre-poll promises and started disbelieving the BJP and the Telugu Desam party. 

This move of the BJP government has strengthened the YSR Congress Party which has been spearheading the fight for 'Special status' to A P along with other parties like the Congress and the left parties. More and more leaders and patriotic people who love the state are joining the YSRCP in this campaign. Earlier popular Telugu film actor, social activist and Jana sena party chief Pawan Kalyan who had supported the BJP-TDP coalition during the elections has turned against both the parties and criticised severely the party MPs and leadership for their inability to strive for the state's special status.

Wise people and political experts who understand the fakeness in such promises warn the voters of India to be cautious against such cheatings and prove their prudence while exercising their franchise in the elections.

BSNL Offering FREE National Roaming facility from 2015 June 15

 At last the long and eager wait of lakhs of people of India who are used to frequent travelling is ending soon. The Government of India has announced the FREE ROAMING OFFER for all the Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) subscribers from 15th of June, 2015.

According to the common feeling, this offer is long overdue. The previous UPA government had already announced to make the whole country under 'free roaming' but failed to execute as promised. Even when the BJP government had promised an year ago to implement free roaming facility throughout India but could come to a conclusion just now only after one year.

However the announcement of the union minister of communications Ravi Shankar Prasad is considered as a boon to most people and is welcomed by all. 

It was earlier felt that how can a person travelling in different areas of 'One India' be charged highly for the incoming and out going calls when he/she crosses one state border.

BSNL, the first and largest telecommunication network in India which recorded a whopping profit of 10,000 crores in 2004, reported a massive loss of 7,500 crores in 2014 due to the inefficiency of those who managed it. This is when many telecommunication companies though small are reaping huge profits with their  well planned and customer-friendly marketing tactics.

Most of the loyal subscribers of BSNL are discarding the state run network for their poor services and high cost for call charges. Even then those who are concerned at the top are not realizing the situation and trying to make necessary changes to bring more people in to the network and increase its profits.
