What PM did was uncalled for. When he picks up a broom to symbolically drive people to keep their surrounding clean, we don't expect him to clean his office with it everyday.
PM's security is paramount. And so it state CM's as well. Yogi has bigger threat then any other sitting CM. So, bare minimum is to have security, ambulance and so on.
The austerity measures can be followed by others. PM, HM and CMs shouldn't pull this stunt. MACROHARDs are always on the hunt.
People avoid govt schools despite paying taxes and an education cess, because the system has failed to earn their trust. Private schools exploit this compulsion. With no real alternatives, parents are squeezed and intimidated.
Here, a principal from a reputed private school in Hardoi is berating parents for buying books from a cheaper shop instead of the schoolтАЩs designated vendor. The insulting tone, тАЬshut up,тАЭ тАЬnaam kaat doтАЭ, says it all.
Almost everyone with power in India abuses it to bully those without it.
The way Ambedkar Jayanti is becoming a bigger event with each passing year, I think, in the coming years, it'll become the biggest festival in India, much like Chinese New Year for China or Thanksgiving for the US.
It could turn into a seven-day festival, with schools and offices organizing events to commemorate it each day. Indian migrant workers might start returning from abroad to celebrate it. We might even begin inviting foreign heads of state to attend, much like on Republic Day. The state currency could feature Ambedkar, and every year there could be a new tallest statue of Ambedkar, each one taller than the last.
Lol! The other sideтАЩs COAS says war against India is Ghazwa-e-Hind, a so-called religious war. They send terrorists to attack temples and Yatras at peak crowd times, and you wonтАЩt even target their terrorist camps during their namaz time!
What to say!
