I remember that in the late 60's priya theater in calcutta was set on fire by communists bcos it was screening a movie 'Shatranj' 'an anti China movie'. This was after the Chinese illegally acquiring much of our lands in the north east. The anti democratic and anti Indian communists have no rights to criticize any other party or set of people. They are the worst scums on the face of this planet. Only an opportunistic party desperate for power, having no self respect or scruples and ruled by a foreigner like congress wud want to align themselves with an anti Indian party like the communists. I am not a BJP partyman but they are certainly way above these two set of jokers communists and congress. So in short, somnath has no right to accuse any member of parliment when his clan hapen to be the worst and everone else pales in comparison to them.

We need to go a dictatorship form of Govt i.e. dictorship by the people for the people. Unless we do some thing, we are really going to hell. Look how things worked during emergency.

More needs to be done than just loan wavers. This will mean encouraging people not to repay the loans. I fully understand the tragedy that people who are feeding us are driven to suicide due to debts.. BUT load waver is not a solution, they need a support system where someone can provide them guidance to make better uses of lands and manage their finances better, I suggest that every panchayat should have access to a finance adviser who can help people make educated decisions. Loans have been wavers so many times by so many state and central governments but problem still remains. We need to strike at the root cause of the problem and not symptoms.

Root cause? Did you ever check the international pricee of wheat & rice compare to India. Forget middle east. Even check the food prices of subcontinent. Say Pakistan India . 3 to 4 time%u2019s difference!!? Farmers in Punjab & Haryana are getting raped. NO wonder a self consiuious farmers instead of becoming beggar are committing suicides. same is happening with farmers in maharstra

The current UPA Govt.itself is Unconstitutional formed in the undemocratice manner by the LEFT and Congress despite the fact that there was no pre-poll alliance between these two parties oppossing each other before elections.Such statements,therefore from Lefty Somnath are just a joke
he belongs to a party whixh bbelieves that a bandh called by them in kolkata is peoples movement/anger/and all that balls. but if any opposotion calls one, it is detrimental to west bengals development! we better take this somnath words with a bucketful of salt!

Drama ke liye Joker to Chahiye hi. So some one should be there either NDA or UPA
well really it is very shamful but what we can do? nothing bcoz of old constitution. in elction everytime i have to think which one should i vote? bcoz all of them are corrupt,malafide, goons etc. and if u ask why don't a educated person comes and join election, the answer is without goons, mafia you would not be able to sustain in this dirt. our political system has become dirt and nobody can solve it. the only solution of this is to change the constitution bcoz it has expired or retired now. we are following the constitution which was written 60yrs ago and still we are following it. an average life of a person is 60 or a person retire at 60. now we need a new constitution in which only literate person having good qualification can fight in election or join any party. otherwise no solution is there in long term. well how many of u are agree with me , just respond

the only solution is change the people who represent us. Firstly, change ourselves. But, basically, when a person is elected to represent a constituency, that person must accept some self discipline and act responsibly. There is the story of Vikramaditya's throne. Any person who sat on it became wiser. That is allegorical reference to the principle that rulers must rule wisely. There is also the percept of Bhishma, that the king shapes the times, not that times dictate how kings must rule. But, we are ruled by intellectual midgets who trim their sails to the wind and prefer the path of least resistance rather than take the right stand on issues. One only hopes that in a generation or two wiser counsels will prevail over the political class.
There is nothing to surprise in it! You see what kind of people the BJP and Its alliance have put in parliament as MPs. There is big number of SAINTS (SANIYASYs) in Parliament as MPs. What else they can contribute! They can hold a trissul and utter some idiotic bad words! Still they wouldn't have understood "what is democracy!%u201D Somnath should teach them first that! Its shame!

There is no much difference b/w BJP and congress.Congress is even more worst.After taking the power congress did nothing to our country.Moreover the president thy nominated itself shows what congress is all about.We have a PM who is a doll in all the rulling party MP's . Its our fate. After congress took prower LTTE movement in INDIA was very high.The only slogan for congress is to be in powers by nay chances.

Even more than that, he should read history and recall HIS OWN behaviour during his days as opposition member. He would realize that todays members are behaving like gentlemen in comparison with his own hooligan-like behaviour during those days.
