Non Congress chief ministers oppose NCTC

National counter terrorism centre was opposed by non-Congress chief ministers at the meeting held at New Delhi. Ms. Mamata Banarjee opposed the move and joined with what non-Congress chief ministers are saying. They said NCTC will violate country�s federal structure, the centre effort to generate consensus among various stakeholders of decision making authorities fell flat with the more opposes than the earlier meet. Tamilnadu chief minister said home ministry treats states like pawn on a chess board. The NCTC is now been notified and should be kept in abeyance as told by  

Tamilnadu chief minister.

She emphasized NCTC will create greater distrust among centre and state, as this will overtake power of the state , as this will overtake the power of the state. Tamilnadu chief minister was so critical in her speech that she asked the centre to keep their house in order, instead of advising states on principle of administrations. Tamilnadu chief minister further said the way things are evolved with the creation of NIA and NCTC and with the proposed amendments to RPF Act and BSF Act, we seem to be headed towards an autocracy consisting of government of the centre, by centre and for the centre.

Home minister stressed

the need that the counter terrorism is a shared policy that is what the constitution says. Gujarat chief minister uttered that even after years of Batla house encounter, union government seems uncertain whether or not it is a genuine encounter between terrorists and Delhi police which functions under ministry of home affairs. Prime minister stressed the need that it is not our government intuition to alter distribution of power between the states and the centre.

Odisha chief minister said

NCTC is unacceptable in its present form. He suggested a sub committee headed by Tamil Nadu chief minister to be set up to address the concern posed by some states. Odisha chief minister stressed that such an organization should not be part of intelligence system and IB. All operations should be joint operations with then support of sate police and NCTC should be independent and neutral organization and its control should not be with centre or states. No where in the world this type of security agency is under the purview of national security agencies. Concurrence of state government should be taken for forming focus groups to deliberate issues and problem areas and state jurisdiction must be supported and acclaimed. Odisha chief minister opposed the provision of NCTC can assume command over any crisis situation and unilaterally act without regional sentiments. If this happens, that is going to undermine the state�s power and vitiate federal structure, in this way this can create and form divisive powers and it is bad for India�s federal structure and running of democracy which has been created by years of sacrifices; Odisha chief minister said in the meeting of NCTC.

Centre promises

to address the state�s concern of State government on locating NCTC in IB and its operational power in exceptional circumstances. Home minister assured all state chief ministers that he would be carefully consider all suggestions. He stressed the need to measure all suggestions with the open mind and heart.

Untold crisis story in China

The ultimate challenges of growth is concerning with feelings of people whether they are fairly treated or are being cheated by government of the day.  The main crunch of problem is with economic reform, it is literally shaking the world, through it capitalism is being brought forward and also with it comes the capitalism diseases of inequality, poverty, increase in distance between urban and the rural, land disputes, agitations, environmental destructions and many more concerning hazardous effects which is being torrentially affecting modern civilizations with its prior and after effects. India is facing similar problems at stretch but due to strong and vibrant democracy with India it is being widely discussed and government of the day is listening to these ongoing and undercurrent demands. There are people�s agitation in India like that of Nandi gram agitation and Anna�s movement, it is being widely pursued and propagated by people and it is bring goodness to society.

The problem:

In case of China it is always a different story takes an example of this and we try to see it in depth to see what it is going to make effect on China. In 2006 villagers protested in Dongshan, southern China against seizure of land for power plant, police took stringent action, many killed and the requisite power plant was built. Rural jobs has been reduced drastically and that gives way to massive exodus of rural to urban transfer and this creates chaos and make huge disturbances at urban areas. A large number of people face unemployment due to advent of privatization especially in north east China.  With concerning to finance areas, people are becoming more and poorer and for this entire significance of agro economics is being broken to the ribs and that is why mass number of people became unemployment.

Unemployment and financial difficulties led to massive ethnic clashes , disturbances , and that has rippling effect so as to say the situation of Xinjiang , China�s largest province with forty five percentages of Muslim Uighur , has been opposing ruthless suppression and constant population transfer. It is the second biggest province of China. The largest province of China Tibet also feeling the same way as that of Xinjiang and these are making massive headaches and China administration is facing this massive dilemma which they are not finding the suitable solutions to reach at the conclusion.

Diagnosis:

If all these situations are examined properly with clear mind and diligent heart , all these problems seems to be seen as ethnic problems out side but  all are political problems which is connecting with financial problems. Bo Xilai China�s most powerful provincial leader presumably is facing with the some kind of arrest.  Bo wants to float a new political party with core socialist values and want to perform a perfect red culture movement. This gave thunder shocks to China premier Wen , coup rumour spread far and wide , internet and blogs are banned but tension prevails .

The socialist China is going to wards capitalist momentum leaving aside core socialistic values and China is feeling deep under the hood of crony capitalism. It seems they are soon reaching out to point of diminishing returns and soon they will find no where to go. French people voted out Nicholas and voted in socialist president after two decades. This should be the eye opener for China establishments. America and Britain are reeling under extreme capitalism toll, unemployment and price rise is souring higher day by day. It seem then world is looking forward to going back to some sort of socialistic values to preserve the interest of stake holders and the wide population at large. China should introspect what should be the ultimate goal of growth and who should be benefitted in reality except a quite a few as is then situation now and it is better late than never and one single populist step can benefit both the consumer and the company is to be realized and it is always good to make a fresh start and listen tom various important parameters of people to make it happen and make the benefits reaching out to extreme poor, let the state come forward and help them to become self sufficient . Only, theories and the policies and announcement and the perceive of people will not work now, people are becoming more and more realistic and they want to be part of the nations building and it is high time politicians must realize this ultimate truth and go ahead with their welfare measures whether it is with democracy or with communist country like that of China.

How to curb naxalism

There should be a national will by the governments of centre and the Naxal affected states to fight against continuous violence and abductions by Naxalites or other armed groups. There should be a unitary policy without delay by the centre against the horrendous case of kidnappings by Naxalites and it is now becoming a habit for them and it is high time centre with the consultations of states should create one uniform policy. India is a vast country but the constitution of India must be abided by all the groups and naxals and they should not resort to violence. They are killing security persons and other tribal if they are not being supported. It is high time every political party must raise their arm against the atrocities created by Naxals and also the genocide they are making at fat and wide of India where for years the administrations failed to reach but that should not be the argument for Naxalites to kill and destroy the administration and making the India state a hostage. Through out the world Communism is almost finished but here in the distant part of India this seems to be the order and the way they are doing violence on innocent citizens cannot be tolerated. Who has given them right to kill a person this is atrocious they can not say that state administration and police are doing this but they also be protected by court but here the Naxalites are making mayhem and mockery of system and everywhere it is the same story the abductions, kidnapping, ransom and gruesome murder.

India government at centre and states affected by Naxalism should learn their first lesson from recent two events involving Odisha MLA Hikaka and Bastar Sukma collector Menon. The tragedy is that both the person named above has been doing the people services and returning from their job and they are abducted by the gun point for reason best known to the Naxalites. HIkaka does not reveal his security persons identity and that is why they are freed but with Menon the security persons has been killed with throat silted , is this the way the civilization live. The killing of this grue some act, and the pain at which that security person must have get before dying can it be imagined by Naxalites. India should consider Naxalite as the murders and brought back to the court to be tried under Indian judicial system. Killing of innocent civilians by the traitors such as Naxalites can not be tolerated and this must be buzz word of centre and state. Are we becoming soft and only doing the word wars, it is high time to act , Naxal have been making high profile abductions and continues to do so and releasing their colleagues and this is high time to have a correct and appropriate abduction policy so that whenever from now these kidnappings happen all the state or centre will adhere to such law parameters. It also seems that Naxals are losing ground and they are trying hard to be popular around the world by kidnapping high profiles, it is high time provincial governments should consider advancing and wiping out these traitors from land of high mineral resources.

Maoists are controlling some territories of seven states and now they are getting the arms, the million dollars is where they are getting these and how they are operating, who is backing them is there any influential persona behind this. These need to be going to the root cause of the problem and by reaching at the solutions you can get enough derivatives to solve this. It is true that government has been absent from these areas for many years and mainly due to these are tribal lands and need to be preserved from outside invasion. But now the Maoists and Naxalites are taking this as their opportunities and making most out of it and taking the tribal in their side, these are very minuscule number of tribal who are supporting them and making the worst of all things and worry factor for India state. What is the root cause of these problems? While I was stating at Nabarangpur in the early part of this century, I was there for three years and ours domestic help was a tribal named Laxmi and she was very devoted to work and honest. One day she said to my mother, that Laxmi father joined Naxal. Mummy asked why Laxmi, yours father joined Naxal, as her father was selling the handia(Tribal Liquer) to people now with Naxal. Laxmi said her father wants dress, meat and handia(Tribal Liquer) each day and due to poverty he cannot afford and that is why he joind Naxal and they are giving them these all days of the week. This is the story why the innocent and poor tribal are joining the Maoist. They are not joining them to make the revolution and create a state against the Indian state but they are simply joining to get food, dress and handia(Tribal Liquer). This is story of thousands of tribal who are joining Maoism and making the murder the order of the day to day life. Then , mummy called Laxmi�s father and talk to him , and then mummy gave him the job of driver , and he left Maoism and stay cool and believe in Indian state and now he is enjoying life even after we have left Nabarangpur and he is now driving the bus and earning money. Whenever he came to Bhubaneswar he used to meet us and thanks us for saving his life, he is happy and cheerful as ever. This story can be learnt by state governments and central government and know what is the root cause of this.

The root cause is the poverty and if government can reach at their place by breaking all the obstacles and then apprise them with various government welfare measures by not fighting what is for centre projects and what is for state , make the unified face and then it can fight this Naxalism with strong hand.  It is the poverty which drives poor tribal to this and try to break that part as Naxal can not compete with wealth of Indina and try to give more funds to tribal and make them more and more opposite to Naxal and then with their support attack Naxal and kill them at battle field , do not compromise and take to them as it is the battle within the state and the India state can not oblige to the mere concept of Naxalism which is dead one and ninety nine percentage of world population rejected it so it is high time to act and succeed. Find good talents from tribals and make them the adequate traing to play for hockley and for India fast bowling option and you never know one day they can bowl nearer to one hundred fifty kilo metres per hour at a fist pace. Make them go to scholl by bringing the cult of education and with quota and reservation for them they can get decent job and make the world happier just like the legislator Hikaka. Naxal trying hard to isolate the tribals so that they can control them , they are taking them to the age of middle ages by destroying mobile towers, schools everything and this is high time India state should act , the guys at the centre and at the states must realize this is  time to destroy Naxals from its roots so that it will not be reviving again and again. Naxal are parasites and they should be uprooted and also the person who is supporting Naxals must be taken house arrest as it is getting me pain to see that Naxal supporter are being invited to television chat shows and they are getting more and more time to talk and making their nuisances. The electronic media must adhere that these supporters of Naxals must not be advertised. It is time to take hard decision and live with by that decision to save India and make our future more and brighter and happier.

Plenty of works remain to be done in Indo-Pak peace process

This article was written by me some times back and it is based on that perspective. The meeting between India PM and the Pak PM at the SAARC summit in Maldives has been positive. PM Singh praises Pak PM and Pak PM reciprocates. Plenty of work needs to be done. A Chinese proverb says “The more you sweat in peacetime, the less you bleed during the war.” But, sadly this does not apply to Indi-Pak relationship. It is complex and the more you try to solve it the more intrigue it becomes the day by day. The fragmented Pakistan polity, the critical role of the army in decision making at Pakistan, the authority of Pakistan army without the responsibility has been the stumbling block in relationship with India. History shows India is been always active in cooperating with it neighbor but due to not so cooperative attitude of western neighbor the peace process is often failing time and again. IN short, the engagement with the Pak’s political machinery will not bring any change. The delivering capacity and the final punch to solve all the problems rests with the hands of Pak army not in their political class as however time and again the political class of Pakistan boasts of. The recent announcement by Pakistan to grant the most favored nation’s status to India is a good gesture. History shows a strong business ties with countries will bring forward the most favorable peace as a force. In a safe and special environment, a lasting peace process is always necessity. Sometimes, the above mentioned Chinese proverb is not always appropriate and especially in the India –Pakistan situation Select Visions.

Terrorism as a state policy or an invisible state policy is a matter of grave concern. It can zero all the peace process within a blink of an eye. Pakistan is a victim of home grown terror, but when it affects India, and then it is the matter of grave concern. No country can interfere in some other country territory in any form. The terrorist’s safe heaven Pakistan must be dismantled. Afghanistan is the bone of contention between India and Pakistan. Pakistan should not consider Afghanistan as the zero sum game. Pakistan can contribute equally as India is doing at Afghanistan. The main aim must be for Afghanistan development and in the process it will lead to peace process of the great Indian subcontinent. The evergreen silk route between central and south Asia must be opened immediately. Peace process between India and Pakistan is crucial and paramount. Liabilities of the past should be erased. Remember, the past always has the glorious uncertainties. The vibrant and the glowing economic future is already in the reserve. Then only the great Indian sub continent can run like a car on a super highway , so everything now rest with the leaders and the statesman of both the countries.

Chanakya pandit the Indian Machiavelli

Chānakya was an adviser to the first Maurya Emperor Chandragupta (c. 340–293 BCE), and generally considered to be the architect of his rise to power. Chanakya  also known as Kauṭilya and Vishnugupta, who authored Indian political treatise called Arthaśāstra . Chanakya to be considered the original father of Political science and economics. In the Western world, he has been referred to as The Indian Machiavelli, although Chanakya's

works predate Machiavelli's by about 1,800 years. Chanakya was a teacher in Takṣaśila, the oldest university of the world. Two books of Chānakya  Arthashastra and Neetishastra. The Arthashastra discusses monetary and fiscal policies, welfare, international relations, and war strategies in detail. Neetishastra is a treatise on the ideal way of life, and shows Chanakya's in-depth study of the Indian way of life. India which is popularly known as Bharat has been one of the few ancient survived civilization of the world. Of these well-known 455 sutras, about 216 refer to raaja-neeti (the do's and don'ts of running a kingdom). Chanakya used these sutras to groom Chandragupt and other selected disciples in the art of ruling a kingdom.

Chanakya (c.350 - c.275 BC), also known as Anshul or Anshu or Kauṭilya or Vishnugupta was born in a family of Brahmin as the son of Acharya Chanak in Pataliputra, Magadh (Modern day Patna, Bihar, India. According to a Jaina tradition, while Chanakya served as the chief administrator of Chandragupta Maurya, he started adding small amounts of poison in Chandragupta's food so that he would get used to it. The aim of this was to prevent the Emperor from being poisoned by enemies. One day the queen, Durdha, shared the food with the Emperor while she was pregnant. Since she was not used to eating poisoned food, she died. Chanakya decided that the baby should not die; hence he cut open the belly of the queen and took out the baby. A drop (bindu in Sanskrit) of poison had passed to the baby's head, and hence Chanakya named him Bindusara. Bindusara would go on to become a great king and to father the greatest Mauryan Emperor since Chandragupt - Asoka. Chanakya meanwhile stayed as the administrator of Bindusara. Bindusara also had a minister named Subandhu who did not like Chanakya. One day he told Bindusara that Chanakya was responsible for the murder of his mother. Bindusara asked the nurses who confirmed this story and he became very angry with Chanakya.

Chanakya pandit the Indian Machiavelli

It is said that Chanakya, on hearing that the Emperor was angry with him, thought that anyway he was at the end of his life. He donated all his wealth to the poor, widows and orphans and sat on a dung heap, prepared to die by total abstinence from food and drink. Bindusara meanwhile heard the full story of his birth from the nurses and rushed to beg forgiveness of Chanakya. But Chanakya would not change his mind. Bindusara went back and vented his fury on Subandhu, and killed him.

Chanakya after this incident, renounced food and shortly died thereafter. Bindusara revered Chanakya and the loss of his advisor was a considerable
