It is shameless adventure the national party Congress has made by rushing through in last hour the Telangana announcement on forming the new state for electoral gains, while ignoring the biggest mass movements in recent history. It has opened a Pandora box of woes for the safety, security and welfare of India and their people. A timely approach and resolve of these burning issues would have met the aspirations of not only Telugu people, but many other regional communities in other parts of India.
But a inordinate delay of undecisive Congress leadership has made serious act of gross negligence and the last minute hurry on Telangana has thrown the ideological theme of national integrity and consensus to backwards and opened the gate of agitation, threat, intimidation tactics to the forefront. It is only because of the cheap but unwise, indecisive, untimely decisions and because of beyond tolerance delaying practice to gain more through electoral politics; the Ruling Congress party had been playing for long. The people must ask when every thing could have been managed in last five years of Congress rule with proper negotiation between the concerned groups with better harmony, why the leadership has waited so long and what has changed since 2009 to this last part of 2013 for taking this decision now.
Leader of the Opposition in Rajya Sabha BJP. MP. Jaitley has observed reasonably in saying,“The movement for Telangana has been one of the biggest mass movements in India in recent history. This movement has sustained itself for a long time. Government should have responded to it well in advance,” .
A last minute decision, to benefit in next election, had opened the Pandora Box with at least seven agitations namely *Gorkhaland in West Bengal, *Bodoland in Assam, *Karbi Anglong again in hills of Assam, *Koch-Rajbongashis, *Dimaasas communities also in vast Assam, *Garos in Meghalay, tribal (*IPFT) in Tripura and many others have started mass agitation putting the life in major parts of North East states and part of Bengal on fire with in indefinite strike and bandh, aroson, crippling of train and highway routes virtually cutting these areas from rest of India.
All this could have avoided if the Ruling Congress leaders had the vision of handling our great nation of such a big diversity and with differing needs and ambitions. But very sad, these rulers of India for almost one full decade have neither vision nor time to look into the problems of people from independent angles, away from cheap electoral politics. And for this the nation and the innocent people have to pay the price.
One thing is for Sure this LIMPING AND DUMB Government and its controlling leadership will not be able to solve any of these problems in its lifetime, without burning the fingers of themselves as well without jeopardising and compromising with national interest.
