CORRUPTION EMPOWERED CABALS - A REALITY OF INDIA

From time to time various estimates have been made regarding the extent of corruption loot going on in India and the figures arrived at have been simply astronomical and mind boggling. One such estimate that appeared recently "Congress' saga of scams: Rs 48,20,69,00,00,000 public money looted in 70 years" highlights  the deeds of Indian Congress and its allies. It does not mean that the others in polity is innocent as a lamb, they too had a dip in the national loot proportionate to their period of ruling, mostly in states. A fair estimation will be a 25% addition to this sum as their contribution. Most of this money goes as Black Money: A Curse For Indian Growth Story

All aspects of the Indian system be it the legislative, bureaucracy or judiciary along with their functions of law making, governance, economy, delivery of justice etc., etc. are controlled and managed by the corruption empowered cabals. Most of the decisions in purchases, adherence to rules and regulations in industry and trade, manpower selections, appointments, promotions etc are all controlled by the principles of lick my boots, scratch each other's back and grease my palm in stead of the basic criterion of merit and conforming to correctness. Given below is a list of cabals affecting the future of Indian nation.

• Political Cabals : Politicians all over the globe are considered to be an unenviable class not only by intelligentsia but by many politicians also. A few notable quotes describe the reality of politics and politicians.

  "Politics is the last resort for the scoundrels" George Bernard Shaw

      "It has been said that politics is the second oldest profession. I        have learned that it bears a striking resemblance to the first".        Ronald Reagen

We are constantly witness to the ushering of various politicians regarding the fact that there are no permanent friends and no permanent enemies in politics notwithstanding any ideological differences or whatsoever. The only guiding factor is the lust to be in power and a shareholder in the national loot.

• Bureaucracy Cabals : There is cabal at all levels of executive, from the lowest to the highest which controls all decisions, monetary or otherwise, recruitments, appointments, postings, transfers etc., based on philosophy of lick my shoes, you scratch my back and I will scratch yours and involving monetary considerations for a large majority of cases. In fact India of the Few- For the Few, By the Few sums up the Indian Reality, not many have the courage to talk about. 
• Corruption Cabals : Apart from polity and executive, these cabals include the land and real estate mafia, Hundi and Havala operators, terror funders and smugglers, black marketers, tax thieves and evaders and 
• Judicial Cabal : The Collegium, The Bar Council of India, The Common Law Admission Test the three main pillars of the Indian Judiciary have also been taken over by cabals and are in fact  The three most arrogant and opaque cabals in Indian legal system .
• Media Cabal : An honest, sincere and unbiased Press/Media, the fourth estate is one of the main pillars of strength in moulding the path of a nation. In India vast majority of media and press has fallen a prey to the baser elements and it is being used by unscrupulous polity through personal and business gratifications through discretionary powers and they in turn help polity to fool the masses. This fact is clear by the fact that this media cabal is on the forefront of condemning all actions of the government, be it on the legislation front or governance front that could jeopardize the identity of fake/duplicate voters, citizens, beneficiaries of government doles, subsidies and beneficial schemes. 
• Cabals in Education : In spite of the fact that there is no dearth of talent, merit and brain in the country, the nation is facing the  Indian Reality of a Rudderless education system , all courtesy the corruption cabals operating in the field of education with the backing of polity and money power. Meritocracy has given way to mediocrity is a gross understatement. More than 90% of the  pass outs from Indian education system irrespective of the stream or level are simply unemployable. This is the story of education infrastructure, facilities, faculties, students and the selections, controlled by different cabals in polity, national governing bodies, individual universities and institutes.

                              

 Why some people hate Narendra Modi so much

The government’s surprise move to demonetise high-denomination bank notes of Rs 500 and Rs 1000 has shocked these anti-social elements.

Sunil Gupta | New Delhi | November 17, 2016 11:31 pm

Prime Minister Narendra Modi, even after the so-called honeymoon period, continues to be very popular in India as well as abroad. According to a recent survey by Pew Research Center and published by Forbes in September this year, Modi’s popularity, even more than two years after he was swept to power in 2014, is pretty high at 81 per cent. Despite his sustaining approval among the public, he has created extremely powerful and very vocal enemies too.

Here, we are not referring to the legitimate political parties who think it is their duty to assail whatever is done by Modi and his government. The Prime Minister has antagonized certain segments such as tax evaders, real estate mafias, those who fund terror activities within India and abroad as well as those who have hoarded huge sums of unaccounted money referred to as black money in India), including the hawala operators.

WHY MODI IS THE MOST HATED PRIME MINISTER FOR THE OPPOSITION AND INTELLIGENTSIA ?

In his seventh year as prime minister of India, Modi continues to be the most popular leader among the masses. Strangely he happens to be the most hated by the opposition and intelligentsia because of his actions which are not to the liking of many sections of elite of Indian society.

In the seventy plus years of  post independence India, no doubt it was Congress party that ruled the country for about six decades. The Indian democracy did throw up a few  alternatives to Congress from time to time in the shape of many erstwhile Congress leaders. However the first to last a full term was of National Democratic Alliance ( NDA ) led by  A B Vajpayee of BJP. Now India has Narendra Modi at the helm of affairs from 2014 onwards in his second term. Though BJP all by itself  enjoyed the majority in 2014  as well as in 2019, still the government is that of NDA.

The politics in independent India theoretically evolved around secularism and socialism. This is at least what has been the central idea of manifestoes of all political parties all these years. When it comes to actual politics , it boils down to plain and simple vote arithmetic manipulations through the age old maxim of Divide and Rule on the basis of religion, cast, creed, sex, age, occupation, urban/rural etc. etc.. In essence in Indian politics, there are no permanent friends, no permanent enemies as secularism and socialism are used just to create perception to woo a particular vote bank at a particular point of time. 

BJP has been labelled as a non secular party by many. The naked truth of Indian politics is that all political parties, national or regional, excepting Congress party has shared power directly  with BJP or in governments where BJP also shared power, though whenever need arose, they labelled it non secular or anti socialism. The Congress party also fell to the greed of being in power in case of Maharashtra recently in coalition with Shiv Sena, essentially a Hindu party, forgetting their being self proclaimed champions  of secularism.  As it is wooing Muslim voters, one of the largest undividable chunk of Indian vote bank has been the sole effort of all so called secular parties, many a time ignoring the basic principles of equality for all citizens even in the eyes of law. In this race aligning with Muslim League has been a glaring example of Secularism of the Congress.

The second major postulate of Indian politics i.e. Socialism has been even greater sufferer at the altar of Indian politics. Ever growing lust for all baser instincts i.e. money, power, wine and women, led to explosion of corruption and corrupt practices and urge to nurture the model of  Philosophy of Corruption Empowerment. The insensitivity of Indian polity to corruption mitigation which is so very important for the prosperity  of our millions can be gauged by the following. One prime minister who served for more than 15 years when told about growing corruption casually said that it was a global phenomenon while another prime minister in eighties was candid enough in admitting that out of 1 Re given by Indian union only 15 paise ( Or 15 % only ) reached the target. But did anything change? Were any measures adopted to cure this malaise both from the centre or any state, by any party, national or regional? The answer is an emphatic NO. 

    The Indian polity dwelled only on vote bank politics all these years in the garb of secularism and socialism through not only creation of Corruption empowered cabals but creation of fake, duplicate and multiple entries in all national lists, be it Voter's List, List of MNREGA workers, List of beneficiaries of government subsidies, List of Permanent Account Holders (PAN)  holders, List of citizens etc. etc., List of Bank Account Holders, to enable manipulations in election results and grabbing a big pie of national exchequer through theft, bribes, corruption tax evasion and generation of black money

All political parties have shared fruits of power with BJP and all political parties in their economics profess and work within 10-15% left or right of centre. It is also amply clear that the plank of BJP being non secular, anti Muslim is just a rhetoric.  All that BJP stands for is uniformity before law for all citizens in all walks of life without exception. So why is Modi hated so much by opposition and so called intelligentsia? What has he done or is going to do which makes him a political untouchable in the country?

Many politicians of the country are convinced by the fact that Corruption Mitigation and Good Governance can be Biggest Growth Engine of Indian Economy but because of political compulsions and lust for power failed in doing something meaningful in this regard. Mr. Modi , strangely enough for an Indian politician has taken it very seriously and has started hitting the Demons of Indian Economy and Governance one by one. During last six years , he has taken the following decisions which seem to have touched the juggler vein of rest of polity.  

• It all started with Demonetization and introduction of GST. Some people particularly  tax thieves and evaders, real estate mafia, terror funders, Hundi and Havala operators and the polity which benefitted from activities these started hating Modi.   

• Realising the total  potential of AADHAAR : The project of unique identification ( UID) number or Aadhaar was initiated by Manmohan Singh's goverment but they developed cold feet when the total scope was understood. In fact UID is the only Aadhaar/base for good governance in India  and opposition has been trying to block all linkages of Aadhaar on one pretext or the other.
•  Welfare schemes and measures like crop insurance, Ayushman Bharat, PM Kisan Samman Nidhi   

 Cutting down the possibilities of pilferage, graft and cuts in all government schemes through cashless direct transfers into bank accounts.

• Doing away with bogus, fake and duplicate ration cards 

• Direct transfer of government  assistance into accounts of beneficiaries, MNREGA payments into individual's accounts

• Muslim women (Protection of Rights on Marriage) Act, 2019
•  Dealing with Pakistan and China from a position of equals

• Fighting terrorism in J&K and Naxalite - Maoist terror in 100 odd districts of the so called red corridor with a lot of success for the first time.   

• Integration of J&K with India    

• Citizenship Amendment Act 2019
• Proposal for National Population Register (NPR) 
• Farmer related legislations namely, 1.Farmers’ Produce Trade and Commerce (Promotion and Facilitation) 2020,  2.Farmers (Empowerment and Protection) Agreement on Price Assurance and Farm Services 2020 and 3.The Essential Commodities (Amendment) 2020.

    All these actions and legislations have 

        1. Dented the monopoly and strong hold of the opposition parties on the Muslim and extremely poor vote banks of the opposition parties.

           2.  A major shift in approach to dealing with   China and Pakistan has increased Modi's popularity considerably with the masses. 

Plus minus in the vote bank along with secularism are not the main reasons of hatred towards Mr. Modi but permanently eroding the credibility of these opposition leaders as The Messiah of protection of Muslims and hapless poor masses by his actions is definitely giving birth to this hatred.

But the major cause of this hatred emanates from the policy and governance actions which are denying them the opportunity of gobbling 85% of the government expenditure, (this fact was mentioned by one of the Indian prime ministers in mid eighties) through direct transfer into the bank account number of real living beneficiaries. During the last five years about Rs 10 lakh crores has been disbursed like this. Now through farmer related legislations, the opposition and so called intelligentsia, bureaucracy etc. etc. has been denied loot share from almost  Rs 25 lakh annually. This being the biggest blow and hence the reactions are also equally big and strong. 

In fact denying opportunities of manipulations of vote bank politics and a big share in national loot is why Modi is hated so much by the opposition and so called intelligentsia.
