Flood situation in Bihar is not a natural calamity; I would rather say it is political calamity. Flood is there every year in north Bihar and it will be there year after year. It is not that its coming all of sudden and surprise. Its 61 years of our independence and we are not able to built dam and barrage to control it. Is this nature to blame for it? I think no! Our politician should be blamed for this.
Bihar Govt is asking one thousand crores for flood victim, give them hundreds thousands crores and it not make any difference. After flood there will be tender to repair dam and all that and all this tender will be given to ruling party politician (whatever party rule is) or their close relative. Repair and embankment will made on paper and then wait for another flood in coming year. So this is the situation of our country in this era when we are talking of globalization. Alas!!!!
Every year after the flood our leaders talk to have some sort of agreement with Nepal. What the hell they are doing for last 61 years. Whether it UPA or NDA Govt. in center, Bihar always has major chunk of ministers. But these ministers are good for nothing. They just inaugurate different projects with much fun fare with their shining name plate. But these never get completed. All ‘big’ Bihari leaders are busy in doing aerial survey as if this is first time for Bihar and they are not aware of its devastation.
Raj Thakre and his likes may be wrong kicking out Bihari from their state, but what our Bihar govt doing to give job to Bihar in their own state. Till recently Bihar was the richest state in term minerals. This is the fate Bihari because of their corrupt politician. Its heart touching to see innocent faces crying for help in flood affected area.
Manmohan Singh announced a relief package of 228 million dollars and 125,000 tonnes of grain for those affected when a monsoon-swollen river changed course, flooding huge swathes of the country's impoverished Bihar state. But is that sufficient? What about those thousands of people who have lost their lives, their relatives, their homes. Flood has devastated everything. Be it their livelihood, family and support.
Shouldn’t we stand up and curse the government for this devastation and huge loss to mankind? Should n’t the government look forward to completely eradicate this menace? Shouldn’t government take some more measure to safeguard the health and living conditions of the country?
I have expressed my feelings through this blog, now would you like to say something……
