Colossal failure of the government & secularists
by Atreya Sarma Uppaluri on Aug 27, 2007 06:16 PM

YS, the CM exhorts the people to be united. Which 'people'? And to be 'united' to do what? He cautions the people not to believe in rumours. How can the people make out what is a 'rumour' and what is the 'fact,' unless the government issues frequent bulletins with correct news every day over the TV channels, which anyway it is not doing? What the government is doing is, simply issue worn-out and cliched statements. The saddest part is, YS's admission of his helplessness against the plots being hatched up in Pakistan and Bangladesh! But what prevents his government to act on the Centre's alert inputs, and seek and ferret out the terrorists and punish them exemplarily? On the other hand, his government has been on a spree of release of terrorists and other hard core criminals from the jails well before they have served out their sentenced terms. YS, while trumpeting about his pro-Muslim stand, commented that while the NDA government had treated Muslims as terrorists, his dispensation was treating them as responsible and peaceful citizens. Reality is, he is treating the terrorists as innocent, for he is sure that they are the benefactors of Muslim votes. He has announced a bounty of benefits to Muslims: free mid-day meals and computers to the Madarsa students. And 4% reservation for Muslims in educational institutions and jobs. Such acts of undue appeasment - with a shameless eye on vote bank politics - have made Hyd'bad a haven & hotbed of Muslim terrorism. And MIM is deaf.
