These two images are from completely reliable sources (Bloomberg and Infomine). How the International Oil prices have taken a dip over the last year. You don’t have to be an economist to understand the impact of Oil prices.
Now, just compare the rates of Petrol or Diesel back then and now. When this government came to power the Oil per barrel was $108/barrel and stands at $46/barrel now. But has the common man seen any change in the price ? No.
Are we seeing any debates on issues like these on National Televisions ? Are we witnessing how news anchors rush to ask all the BMW waalas about their response on Oil prices ? Where did all our activism go over this last year ?
The last time rupee took a dive down, my timeline and almost all the social media was filled with questions as to what the government is doing ? Jokes on Dr. Singh and of course the ever fav “Italian” Sonia Gandhi. Amazing, how you all feel “proud” of Indian Americans making it big, but still bring her ethnicity whenever you feel like. The present Foreign minister had on record claimed she would shave off her hair if Sonia becomes the PM back in 2004. Of course, she didn’t become one and we were spared the dare.
The PM before this joker was silent on almost everything, this one only opens his mouth when he steps on a Poll campaign. Can someone please tell him, PM isn’t PR minister? He has time for election campaigns. Spending time on “Mann ki baat”, attending marriage ceremonies in expensive suits, wishing Happy Birthdays to every Tom dick and harry and when people question him for days on Dadri, what does he come up with ?
I doubt anyone apart from the ones who have opposed him since long would do. Or when they would do, will be branded as Rabid Anti-BJP elements.
It’s sad you know, most of you were shouting how people even say Yaqub shouldn’t be hanged. Now the same you has plainly ignored everything when Aseemanand, or Kodnani or Bajrangi are given bails, forget about being hanged. You were all so excitedly blaming someone else’s religion just a few days back. Whose religion should I blame for this ?
No, I won’t blame your religion. But I do blame idiots out there, the so called “Nationalists” who have dug a hole of hypocrisy and refuse to come out of it.
Wake up, before they start putting more people to sleep. Literally.
I wrote this piece before elections and what I feared is finally coming true.
But then, you put these guys into power.
