Millions are left devastated & marooned every year but still no plan in place to check FLOODS !

We hear about floods in bihar every year, the successive governments have spend millions to prevent it atleast on paper , but where are the results ?
Millions are left devastated & marooned but still no plan in place to check FLOODS from being an annual catastrophe .

Bihar is India's most flood-prone state, with 76% population in the Northern Bihar are living under the recurring threat of flood devastation while the government has built over 3000 km of embankments in Bihar over the last few decades, but the flooding propensity has increased by 2.5 times during the same time period, not to mention that embankments failed during each major flooding event !

Bihar introduced its first flood policy in 1954 , the state then had approximately 160 km of embankments and the flood-prone area in the state was estimated to be 2.5 million hectares. And surprisingly upon the completion of the embankments of about 3,465 km the amount of flood-prone land increased to 6.89 million hectares in 2004 which is evident enough that we are moving in the wrong direction !

There is not any one or a particular reason for the flood that has became an annual affair in the lives of millions of biharis, deforestation, excessive silting, banana trees at the banks of Ganges ,even farakka barrage looks like a contributor apart from the “scape goat” reason that Nepal allows the water flows into the major drainages of Narayani, Bagmati, and Koshi rivers, inflating them that leads to flood , but whats the solution to this disaster every year .

Maybe technically wrong but former PM Atal Bihari Vajpayee was sensitive to the issue hence suggested & professed the idea to connect rivers ending this problem for ever; but sadly even his party is not keen on giving it a thought leave aside his political opponents !

कोरोना का क़हर जिस तरह अमरीका , रशिया , इटली या फ़्रान्स या फिर Europe के दूसरे देशों में देखने को मिला वैसा क़हर इस देश में नही , mortality rate भी काफ़ी बेहतर है और आगे भी रहगा ये मैं पूरे यक़ीन के साथ कह सकता हूँ !
मैं डॉक्टर नही मगर ये ज़रूर जानता हूँ के इस देश में आधे से ज़्यादा लोग गंदा पानी , unhygenic खाना खा कर ज़िंदा हैं , एक छोटा सा उदाहरण दे कर अगर समझाया जाए तो ऐसा समझिए के हर साल हज़ारों को डेंगू होता है , मेरे मोहल्ले में भी होता है , मगर विश्वास करिए आज तक कोई नही मरा मेरे इलाक़े से ; लेकिन यश चोपड़ा बेचारे डेंगू की भेंट छड़ गए !
यानी ये बीमारी उनके लिए ज़्यादा ख़तरनाक साबित होती है जिनको ऐसी चीज़ों की आदत नही !
इस देश में किसी भी रेल्वे स्टेशन पर आप को लोग नलके से पीने का पानी भरते दिख जाएँगे , रेल में दिए भोजन से कई बार cockroach और lizard निकली है , कोई मरा ? अरे भैया रेल्वे स्टेशन पर जब ₹ १० रुपय का “जनता आहार” को खा कर कोई नही मरा तो विश्वास कीजिए कोरोना से तो मारेगा ही नही ...
अब सोचिए अमेरिका के राष्ट्रपति जब भारत आए तो अपने पीने का पानी भी साथ लाए थे ; मगर हम बिंदास muncipality के नलको का पानी पी रहे हैं , कुछ हुआ ?
90 % से जयदा लोग जिनको कोरोना हो रहा है वो बिना किसी दवा और इलाज के ठीक हो जा रहे हैं , कैसे ? क्यूँ के हमको आदत है , कोरोना से ज़्यादा बर्बादी तो सांप्रदायिक दंगे में होती है इस देश में ....
इस कोरोना का नही सांप्रदायिकता का इलाज ढूँढिए देश का भला होगा !

Markaz or no Markaz venomous tv debates are very much like this for long , their agenda to accuse, abuse & tarnish the image of the community is being persued since lynching days, where they accused the lynched & made heroes out of communal lunatics !

The disgraceful media has maintained silence on other gatherings , processions, in house proceedings, marriage parties attended by big wigs even swearing in ceremonies !

But that does not obliterate the Markazi Jamaatiz of their foolish, stupid , irresponsible & negligent act ; most of the jamatiz are educated people & #Corona related news were everywhere no matter which newspaper they read or tv they watch !

Pleading ignorance or disowning responsibility is futile , they did commit a blunder and made themselves look like stupids by speaking about government directives !

The point is "government directives or no directive", they should have postponed all programmes from February onwards as a large number of their attendee are either foreigners or delegates from different states . And Corona had engulfed China, entire Europe and many asian countries by early february or so , they could have rescheduled their programmes till this was contained !

Although I don't see it as some deliberate , planned or conspiracious event with some anti national agenda to achieve as being projected by a section of media .

The organizers are responsible and all legal proceedings should be initiated against them as initiated in other such cases of crowds, proceedings , marriages, parties and processions post directives !

These incidents are not secluded or stray ones but hate motivated crimes committed with a purpose !

In a shocking incident, a 22-year-old man was beaten to death by a group of molesters who had passed lewd comments on his sister when she was returning home after her class in a remote village called Kudwa,Haidernagar police area, Palamu, Jharkhand.

In the incident, Vakil Khan lost his life, while 20 year-old Danish Khan is said to be very serious. Although police has arrested one man but then not much is expected in cases where minorities are lynched,murdered or killed .

In an earlier incident in March 2016, in another soul wrenching incident, two man, Imtiyaz Khan and Mazrum Ansari were beaten up and then hanged from a tree by a mob of so-called cow vigilantes in Khaprelwar village of Latehar district, some arrests were made but nothing concrete happened as the local politicians not only supported the killers but garlanded them when the accused we're out on bail !

Even in neighbouring state of Bihar ruled by the same political party as in Jharkhand, A Durga Puja procession was denied entry through a Muslim-dominated area in Bihar’s Sitamarhi last October (2018). On being denied entry, procession turned violent and further 80-year-old Zainul Ansari, who was returning from his daughter’s house, was beaten and burnt alive.
So it can be said these incidents are not secluded or stray ones but hate motivated crimes perfectly planned and brilliantly executed committed with a sole intend of instilling fear amongst Muslims and force them further into ghettoisation.

When will we stop calling parts our land as troubled area ?

There are hardly issues which can't be resolved , so why the people from North East or Kashmir are suffering for decades .
There is limit to everything, be it patience or capacity to bear adverse. The efforts of all successive governments were more or less cosmetic in nature, hence they all resulted in duds while finding solutions .
Armed Forces (Special Powers) Act which is the last resort and is to be enforced with caution even in case of an emergency is renewed after every review of the situation there .

When do we wish to withdraw the Armed Forces (Special Powers) Act ?
What have our governments done to normalize situations there ?
Everyone knows that use of Military is a short time solutions, therefore the larger questions is, did our leaders lacked vision , commitment Or seriousness ?

A large section of our forces are assigned to manage law & order in these area ; so what's the point electing governments there ?
Law & order is a state subject; but insurgency and infiltration needs support and direct involvement of central government . Perhaps, its their responsibility to create a healthy, coherent and conducive atmosphere for talks , it was their duty to reach out to people in such areas and engage them in dialogue, help them overcome their issues , concerns & grievances !

But to country dismay no governments has done it this way , once elected they spend their time , energy & machinery in either hiding their flaws ( read scams), defending their wrong policies or witch hunting opponents till they are booted out making way for the other party or coalition to follow their footsteps for next 5 years !

But on a serious note, it hardly matters which alliance wins it should be on a priorities, as this delay in finding solution is alienating our own men apart from exhausting our armed forces doing they are not comfortable in ...

"no work all play" policy is costing them dearly !

In 2014 , there was nobody to challenge the then invincible Mr. Modi ,but this #Raffale and their "no work all play" policy is costing them dearly

!
Even if they come back to form a government again, Nitish Kumar & Ram Vilas Paswan will have an important say in "Koun Banega Pradhan Mantri" .
Irrespective to above Even Mr.Gadkari is playing safe . Perhaps, he knows he has an opportunity if BJP don't reach the magic figures alone , and therefore he has started portraying himself as a liberal amongst hardliners, a dove amongst eagles if not vultures ...
And frankly speaking no chanakya can reverse the damage Done already. The image of senior leaders has taken severe beating leaving enough loopholes for the opposition to dent the "no non sense government" image further with uncomfortable queries and questions creating doubt in the mind of voters, which in given time may not be easy task to wipe out or overcome politically....

Rahul's political acumenship where he has to prove that his Congress is different and better than Narsimha Rao's, Manmohan Singh's even his mother Sonia Gandhi's led Congress !

Rahul has started well with new governments in all recently won states , but then his responsibility doesn't end there; in fact the expectation to deliver, begin now ....
He will be under tremendous pressure to outdo the BJP ruled states with good governance at one hand and maintainance of the law & order at the other, the two major concerns in right wing ruled states !
So anybody who thinks winning was the end are wrong as it's just the beginning of Rahul's political acumenship where he has to prove that his Congress is different and better than Narsimha Rao's, Manmohan Singh's even his mother Sonia Gandhi's led Congress !
It becomes imperative to add that Congress will have to choose either of the one, it can't be Mr.jekyll and Dr.hyde both as it has been all these years .
Rahul has shown maturity in handling the process of choosing Chief ministers and I expect similar intellect as that shall help him carve a niche for himself and for the long ailing Congress !
