indian parliament restructure - From bad to worse
by Vishy on Jul 19, 2008 08:00 PM

The LOK SABHA constituencies are being restructured. THE BASIS - Population of the region.
What does this mean for us -
1. This simply means - if some region has grown in population , it deserves and will receive more representation in LS

2. Sounds good as a concept but we all know its a number game at lok sabha - one such game is on today in delhi, and like earlier games UP holds the trump card.

2. UP and bihar (original complete states) send 84 and 54 MPs resp. to Lok sabha

3. gone are the days when UP sent people like Nehru, lal bahadurji to lok sabha. Today people like mulayam, mayawati and goons sitting in jails hold the cards. This is JUST because they have numbers.

4. restructuring based on population would mean more MPs from these states

5. States like kerala and some north eastern states will be the biggest losers - their crime - they worked hard to control the poulation growth. - result - LESS NUMBERS IN LS - less say in central politics

These 2 states are at the bottom of all the growth indicaters - economic or social.
industris, employment, social grounds like infant mortality, girl child death, rapes, crimes agnst women - they are at the bottom in each list.
These figures show the performance of the governance (read politicians - and NOT POOR PEOPLE) and we are likely to have more of them on national level.
SOUNDS PSSIMISTIC BUT GET READY TO BE GOVERNED BY GOONS GUYS
