BENGAL'S NEW AGE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION-CPM STYLE?
by arnab bhattacharya on Mar 19, 2007 04:49 PM

The great leftists of our country having extolled the ideals of socialism in all its wrongful interpretation and usage, over half a century, have only manifested inefficiency, indiscipline, insubordination, corruption and hypocrisy. The spirit of business and free enterprise have been besmirched to be crime and those who followed termed 'class enemies'.
Suddenly it dawned on them, big business and industry would be a boon for development but having scorned and sneered private business for decades. It speaks of their intrinsic confusion and contradictions.
However, in the process , politically no quarter has been taken into confidence . Fertile , arable lands have suddenly been earmarked for private industries and SEZs for reasons not properly explained. Entire process of land acquisitions have not been justified and transparent.
A fear psychosis and antagonism prevails amongst the rural agrarian community of their holdings to be forcibly taken over .
The bottom line is , the ruling party is in a hurry to earn cheap credit and showcase a make belief truth of industrial progress, being totally delinked from the ground reality ,ignorant of the plight and sentiment of the common people.
Brute and arrogance is the face of those in power. An impartial judiciary, vibrant press
and agile citizens%u2019 consciousness may help to contain the repression and expose to the whole country of an industrial policy which is neither workable nor acceptable. The ruling party need to do some soul-searching;.
