The Indian government!!

Politics has never been my favorite topic of discussion. But the way the Indian Political system is heading is making sure that I write a post on this topic as well. In my frank opinion, the government at the center is pretty useless. It is a spineless government headed by Manmohan Singh as the prime minister. Even though he is the prime minister of the country, it is a well known fact, that it is Sonia Gandhi, the president of the Indian National Congress, who is running the country behind the back of Manmohan Singh. The government at the center is a coalition government and is completely dependent on its allies and coalition partners in the states. The state of the government is that it has to cater to the needs of all its allies and it acts to the whims and fancies of the parties. Such is the pathetic state of governance in this country. And one more fact that has to be looked into is the biased politics of this government. Ministers should be appointed on the bases of qualifications and experience, but here it is done solely on the basis of the advice and the favoritism of coalition partners. It is like, the partners demand certain portfolios for their party members and it is given to then under a carefully formulated agreement. This clearly reflects the sorry state of affairs of the Indian Government.

Inflation on the rise!!

For a country with a huge population which is on the rise every other day, the last thing that the country would want is the inflation rate to go up. But this is what is happening in this country. Thanks to a government, which does not give a damn to the feelings of the people of the country and does not heed to the demands of the majority of the country, who are poor and illiterate. A majority of the people are under the poverty line and hence this kind of inflation is bad for the country as well as the people of this country. I have no idea why the finance minister goes on increasing the prices and why he has been dormant without taking any efforts to reduce the increasing prices. This should be stopped and efforts must be taken to make sure that people do not suffer. It is completely in the hands of the Finance Minister to make sure that the price rise is kept on a check and the people are back to their happy self.
