Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

Poll Promise to create 10 lakh jobs

 


 

During the current election campaigns in Bihar, Shri Tejashwi Yadav ( RJD ) has promised to create 10 lakh ( 1 million ) jobs , IF voted to power


(https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/elections/assembly-elections/bihar/bihar-polls-2020-opposition-to-counter-rjds-promise-of-10-lakh-jobs/articleshow/78774060.cms )


This is not the first time contesting politicians have made reckless promises in their ELECTION MANIFESTOS . This has been happening for decades, during each election


Expect some similar (or veiled ) promise when Smt Nirmala Sitharamanji releases this afternoon , BJP’s VISION DOCUMENT ( - during the last General Election , BJP had titled it as SANKALP PATRA )

 

Of course ,

Ø  Poor people ( without any source of income ) believe these promises , despite past experience being contrary

 

Ø  Politicians go on merrily making such promises , knowing fully well that they have no means to fulfill such outlandish promises – and despite breaking CODE of CONDUCT or without any fear of  being “ de-registered “ by EC or election-result being declared VOID by Supreme Court .

 

Ø  Which politician has the MORAL COURAGE to tell the voters :

“ Neither the Private Sector nor the Public Sector ( including the governments ), can create enough jobs to employ 12 million youth joining our work-force each year.

If elected, all that I promise to do is to create enough opportunities for these 12 million to become SELF EMPLOYED

 

Since there is no way, we can get any politician to speak such bitter truth, can we expect,

 INDUSTRY ASSOCIATIONS – PROFESSIONAL BODIES – BUSINESS LEADERS – ECONOMIC EXPERTS ,

to convey this “ Fact of Life “ to people ?


If they have that MORAL COURAGE, they will find the essence of that TRUTH in my following e-mail to the then Vice Chairman NITI Aayog, Shri Arvind Panagaria ;

  1. Nobody asks road map for achieving this target.Learned media remain silent on such important issue being loathed for decades.Loan waiver is also illegally enticing voters.
