Dear Narendrabhai ,
You have talked your way to power - calling yourself ,
" Mazdoor # 1 "
Now , it is time to " Walk the Talk "
People of India have taught a lesson to the party which
called you ,
" Merchant
of Death ( Maut Ka Saudaagar ) "
They believe you to be " Merchant of Dreams ( Sapno
Ka Saudaagar ) "
Of course , no one expects any miracle to happen on the
ground , in the next 100 days
But the decisions that your Cabinet takes - and
transparently communicates to the people - in the next 100 days , will tell
them , whether your Government is any different than UPA-2
Here are the decisions that people expect :
A ... FIGHTING CORRUPTION
* Appoint
Central Lok Pal
* Appoint (
where missing ) , Lok Ayuktas in BJP controlled States
* Appoint
Special Fast-Track Courts to try within 1 year , criminally-
charged MPs /
MLAs / Bureaucrats / Politicians / Businessmen
B... BLACK
MONEY TO
WHITE MONEY
* Introduce
Amnesty Scheme , for monies invested in Infrastructure SPVs
* Amend Personal
Income Tax to Inverse Taxation Regime ,
where the
incremental
tax rates keep going DOWN in each higher slab
* De-monetize
Rs 1000 currency notes
C...
JOB GENERATION
* Amend
Corporate Tax Regime , with incrementally reducing tax-rates
for
Companies with higher employee-strength
* Introduce
" Accelerated Depreciation " for
investment in Capital Assets.
Capital
Goods industry is the Mother of all industries
* Focus on
creating " Self-Employment " thru tax-breaks for self-employed
* Low interest loans for self - employed
D... DEVELOPMENT
OF NORTH-EAST STATES
* Industrialists
/ businessmen will not come forward to make
huge
investments
in North-East , in absence of excellent infrastructure of
roads /
rails etc
All private
investments made here must be tax-free for 25 years
E... SIMPLIFY LABOUR
LAWS
* Today's labour laws make
it extremely difficult - if not impossible - for employers to layoff / retrench
workmen , if demand shrinks
* Employers are unlikely to hire thousands of youth , if they cannot easily trim the workforce , to match the shrinking demand
* So , an important corollary of any Job Generation Scheme is to modify our existing Labour Laws to facilitate layoff / retrenchment , when situation so demands , while protecting the interests of the workmen concerned
F... EDUCATION
/ UNIVERSAL LITERACY
* What is
responsible for keeping 28.7 Crores of Indians illiterate ( 37 % of World's
illiterate ) , 66 years after independence
?
* Ans : Lack of educational infrastructure consisting
of Schools / Colleges /
Equipments / Qualified Teachers .. etc
* Solution ?
Push for E-education thru online delivery of
subject-matter thru tablets
G ...
GOOD
GOVERNANCE
Ask each concerned Minister , to publish within 100
days, on Ministry's web site , PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION PLANS , for the following :
* Food Security
Bill
* Connecting 2.5
lakh panchayats thru broadband
* Aakash Tablets
for 220 million students
* Delivery of
Services Act
* Aadhar
Identification Card
* Electoral
Reforms / Right to Recall
* CAG audit of
Private Companies using Government resources
* 4G Wireless
Internet all over India
* Delhi Mumbai

Closure of loss-making / bleeding PSUs
* Imparting
skills to 500 million youth ( NSDC )
* Sulabh Sauchalaya ( Remember "Sauchalay before Devalaya
" ? )
