It is really very sad that the
RSS had to intervene in the OROP issue, and that political gains from Bihar
Polls are being considered for settling this 3 month long agitation, even after
40 years of procrastination on this issue.
It appears that the PM is very
soft on the Babus, Concerned Ministers or the Mediators and allowing them to
get to a solution. They all are giving different and misleading versions to the
public and media. I cannot understand why the government is not engaging in
direct talks with the representatives of the armed forces and sort out these
issues. They are not our enemies, after all, or are they? Let us all remember the armed forces in times of PEACE also.
The Armed Forces certainly
deserve much more and better treatment, rather than this kind of embarrassment.
Honorable PM must rise above all
this and take a more assertive stand on this. Please show the nation that you
are the supreme commander in the government.
If the PM can doll out huge
packages to Bihar, one after the other, for gains in the coming polls, why he
is dragging feet on this issue when the people in question are saviours of the
nation? That is something which defies the Logic and Reason.
We all want a respectable
solution to this issue and are prepared to cough out additional taxes levied as
cess for this noble cause, that if government says that yes, they have the
money to declare packages for political gains, and that they do not have money
for the OROP, or similar issues.
I have a simple message to the
Government – “Enough is Enough. Please pull up your socks and get on to this
job. Don’t go home for next few days till the matter is taken to its logical
conclusion. Do the armed forces see the sun or light or rains when there is war
against the nation?
If the answer is negative, then how
come the concerned persons in the Government should continue to live in their comfort
zone.
