Why Cong failed to
work wonders which Modi did with Central funds in Gujarat?
So at last the Congress confesses, though belatedly, that Mr. Narinder
Modi has worked wonders in development in Gujarat, but with a rider that
development works in Gujarat were being implemented using Central funds and
that he had not done “anything significant”. That is what the Union Minister
Kapil Sibal said on March 29 in New Delhi. (http://www.deccanchronicle.com/130329/news-politics/article/kapil-sibal-says-gujarat-developed-centres-funds). The legal eagle Sibal has once again proved that he thrives in the art
of being illogical in what he believesto be his great logic
Firstly, Mr. Sibal needs to understand that the “central funds” are not
the Congress party’s own money raised
through donations from big business. It
is public money and if any public money is given to any state government by a Central
government, it is not a favour on the state government or its people. It is people’s
own money, their own hard-earned money, their right and sanctioning it for
development of the people in States is the ruling government’s bounden duty
mandated by the people.
Secondly, it the Central funds, so kindly sanctioned by the Manmohan
government, are fhe magic wand, why has the Central government itself or the
Congress-ruled governments have failed to strike the same wonders in
development which Mr. Narendra Modi has succeeded in doing in Gujarat? Why is
that the GDP growth of Gujarat is about three times more than that of the ‘kind
donar’ Manmohan government? If the Manmohan government’s this ‘wonder money’
can work wonders in the GDP growth of the non-Congress states like Gujarat,
Madhya Pradesh, Bihar etc. , why had it failed to strike the same magic in
Manmohan’s own government? Had GDP growth not been that much higher than that
of Manmohan Government, Union government’s achievement on this score would have
been still lower.
On the contrary, people
like Mr. Sibal try to trivialise the three time win for himself and his BJP in
Gujarat which is as much a Modi win as is it that of the BJP. The people of the
State irrespective of their caste and creed have given a big hand to Mr. Modi
despite his detractors’ false propaganda to the contrary. Yet, the likes of Mr.
Sibal have the cheek to ridicule people’s dermand for making Mr. Narendra Modi
as the prime minister. So far Mr. Modi himself has never uttered a word on the
issue. If people like Mr. Sibal and his Congress colleagues have the right to
propose that Mr. Rahul (and earlier, Mrs. Sonia Gandhi) be the prime minister,
how can they deny the same right to other leaders if they speak for Mr.
Narendra Modi? Is democracy the dynastic property of people like Mr. Sibal to
the exclusion of all others who do not agree with them?
We do expect Mr. Sibal
to inform and educate the people who do not agree with him with this illogical logic?
