our politicians are at it again..

after the Ailaa..its now the full moon tides that are supposed to hit the Sunderbans on the night of June 6-7..and the bureaucracy-government-opposition trio has done enough to make matters worse..according to the news report..

"In the four days the army was involved in rescue and relief in the Sunderbans, a small force of just 200 men saved the lives of over 1000 people. But for some strange reason the state government removed them from the operation on May 29. Had the military been kept on the job and asked to repair the embankments, tens of thousands of Sunderbans villagers wouldn't be staring at a second devastation. "

"The state's huge bumbling machinery messed up the relief operations. Now, when it has thrown up its hands in surrender, saying the breaches cannot be repaired before the full moon tide hits on the night of June 6-7, it has again turned to the army and even the navy for relief, medical care and repair of embankments. But it may already be too late. "

and here's the worst part..

"The government's initial decision to deinduct the army and air force in a hurry could have been prompted by the Mamata Banerjee factor and to show that the state government was competent enough to tackle the situation. The railway minister had claimed she was the first to contact the defence minister for army and air force assistance."

will someone please tell them that the elections are just over..its okay if they take some rest and fight only inside the Writers during the House hours and leave the army to do its job for good..!!

  1. The present status of politics is this. If you are unable to do a job yourself, don't let the other person do it and if he/she tries, denounce it and try to take credit yourself. This altitude is always there and is in no way co-related to elections.

    your post is a classic example. In India, we do not practice accountability, which is the real root.
