'Destructive' bandhs are not future: Mamata - Indian Express

'Destructive' bandhs are not future: Mamata - Indian Express


WHAT THE CM OF WB SAYSVIS APPLICABLE. TO GOD'sOWN COUNTRY ALSO.HERE SOME SAY THAT THE POLITICAL PARTIES ARE NOT ALLOWING THEM PEACEFUL LIFE BY DISTURBING THEIR LIFE STYLE.SOME OTHER PEOPLE SAY THEY ARE UNABLE TO GO TO THEIR RELATION HOUSES & even to theirWORKPLACE.
WHAT PUBLIC OF WB SAY IS NOT KNOWN.WE WOULD KNOW SOON.

THOSEBWHO ORGANISERS BANTHHARTALS DO NOT KNOW THE EFFECT.THE MONEY FOR THIS UNWARRANTED PROCESS THOUGH MET BY POLITICAL PARTIES ,THIS INDIRECTLY AFFECTS THE THE ECONOMY OF THE NATIONS!
In other words these BANTHS organizers are trying to shatter the sound economy of the country.THIS WOULD LEAD TO FINANCIAL CRISIS IN INDIA.
THOSE WHO BELIEVE IN CONSTITUTION & the power of judiciary in ithe constitution,should refrain from BANTHS AS OTHERWISE THE APEX COURT WOULD BE FORCED TO TELL THEM TO SHELL OUT MONEY FOR COMPENSATION AS IN THE CASE OF THE YOGA GURU .RECENT VERDICT FROM APEX COURT IS RELEVANT

UBNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES ONLY CONSOLATION & happiness giving matters are LIKE THE IMPOSSIBLE VICTORY POSTED ON SRILANKA OVERCOMING THE RUNRATE OF THAT NATION IN THE COMMON WEALTH SERIES.

BUT THESE POLITICAL PARTIES OF KERALA DO NOT KNOW THE DIFFERENT MEANINGS OF CRICKET EVEN.


SO WHAT THE GENERAL PUBLIC CAN DO IS TO CLOSE THEIR EYES AND PRAY WITH FOLDED HANDS FOR GIVING SENSE TO POLITICAL PARTIES SO AS TO ENABLE THEM TO OPEN THEIR EYES THEMSELVES TO SAVE THE NATION& NATION's money.
SO IT BE GOD ALMIGHTY!!!

"Giving stick&getting beaten"

I have never seen TCR City so deserted  on a Day of Hartal before.Perhaps today's Hartan/Bandh was a historical one with none of the public transport system plying their vehicles.It looks all political parties except those belonging to the ruling front are directly or indirectly in the Hartal.Some ladies&school going children were on the road.No one cared for them today .Neither do they are being teased .They are free to walk on the roads as much as they do fel like walking.No interference at all.
When I looked into the nesw papers ,I came to know that there were ome ugly incidents on the national highway where a political party organised a Hartal against the collection of toll.The highway was initiated&toll introduced by the governing people of the earlier era I was told by a gentleman when I asked for the reason for today'Banth.The news paper reports ,however said on prompting police, by throwing stones against them ,the Police had no alternative but to resort to lathi charge in which some of the innocent people as well as political party leaders sponsoring the Banth/Hartal were injured.The Police was ,however, very kind to the leaders to take them in their vehicles to the hospitals to get them admitted/
In a nut shell it amounts to as if the Political party which organised the Hartan gave a stick to the police to get themselves to be beaten by the Police.
 Obviously ,the idea could be to get get photographed in the hospital in a bandaged position to derive sympathy from Public which could be converted into votes in the forthcoming bye-election at Paravur.

 At least the Banth Organisers should have thought about the serious consequences of their action as it happened in the case of Ramlila maidan incident in Delhi.A day back the Apex court had fined the organiser of the Agitation as well as the Police.
Same fate could happen here also as the Constitution of this Nation does not provide for committing Hartals/Banths by the Public.And the Political party members are just Public.So the Judiciary could reach them to punish them to reiiumberse the cost of damages caused ,if any,in the Hartal.to the public money involving life &property of individuals&those belonging to the Governeing people.The Public are just the Governed under the cConstitution of this Nation.

HISTORICAL VERDICT BY THE APEX COURT-POLICE CRACKDOWN ON RAMDEV THE YOGA GURU

THE SUPREME COURT TODAY RULED WITH A VERDICT THAT THE GUILTY SHOULD BE PUNISHED FOR THE MIDNIGHT CRACKDOWN ON THE AGITATING GURU AND THE PUBLIC SUPPORTING HIM AGITATING AT RAMLILA MAIDAN OF DELHI ON 4/5 JUNE 2011. THE VERDICT SAID THEREHAD BEEN NO TRUST BETWEEN THE PEOPLE GOVERNING AND THE PEOPLE GOVERNEDD. IN OTHER WORDS,THE CASE WAS A GLARING EXAMPLE OF MISTRUST BETWEEN THE GOVERNMENT& THE PUBLIC. NEITHER THE PEOPLE GOVERNING NOR THE PEOPLE GOVERNED TAKE EACH OTHER INTO CONFIDENCE WITH THE RESULT THE INNOCENT PUBLIC WERE THE SUFFERERS.THE DELHI POLICE COULD HAVE WAITED UNTIL NEXT MORNING BEFORE RESORTING TO THECRACKDOWN. BUT SINCE POLICE HAD ASKED THE GURU& PUBLIC TO LEAVE THE MAIDAN PEACEFULLY,THERE HAD BEEN NO JUSTIFICATION IN NOT LISTENING TO THE POLICE & CONTINU- ING WITH AGITATION. ACCORDING TO VERDICT BOTH THE PARTIES VIZ DELHI POLICE &THE YOGAGURU DESERVED PUNISHMENT& SHOULD, THEREFORE,GIVE COMPENSATION TO THE ONE KILLED RAJBALA AN AMOUNT OF RUPEES 5 LAKHS,THE 25% OF WHICH SHOUD BE TO THE ACCOUNT OF THE TRUST OF THE GURU&75% BY DELHI POLICE. THE VERDICT DOES NOT END HERE.THE SERIOUSLY INJURED IN THE CRACKDOWN & those who sustained MINOR INJURIES ARE TO BE COMPENSATED @50,000/-&25,000/-RESPECTIVELY. THIS MEANS FOR RAJBALA THE DELHI POLICESHOULD PAY Rs3,75,000/-&THE GURU TRUSTRs1,25,000/- res RESPECTIVELY. SIMILARLY FOR EACH SERIOUSLY INJURED,THE DELHI POLICE SHOULD PAY Rs37,500/-& THE RAMDEV TRUST SHOULD PAY Rs12,500/- RESPECTIVELY. AGAIN FOR THOSE SUSTAINED MINOR INJURY,TO EACH, DELHI POLICE SHOULD PAYRs18,750/-&THE GURU TRUST 6250/- RESPECTIVELY THE TOTAL NUMBER OF SERIOUSLY INJURED&THOSE SUSTAINED MINOR INJURIES WILL HAVE TO BE WORKED OUT BY DELHI ADMINISTRATION,PERHAPS,IN CONSULTATION WITH THE DELHI POLICE&THE HOSPITALS WHERE THEY HAD BEEN ADMITTED.THE LIST COULD BE EITHER ENORMOUS OR A SMALL ONE.THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF COMP- ENSATION IS LIKELY TO BE VERY HIGH IF THE NUMBER OF PERSONS ARE HIGH. ANY HOW BOTH THE DELHI POLICE& the trust,in all probability ,WILL HAVE TO SHELL OUT A BIG AMOUNT SHORTLY. AS A RESULT OF THE VERDICT,THE GURU IS SAID TO HAVE DECIDED TO AGITATE AGAINST THE VERDICT ALSO ACCORDING TO REPORTS ON LEADING NEWSPAPERS. THE COUNSEL FOR THE GURU SAID THE CENTRAL HOME MINISTER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CRACKDOWN. HOWEVER,IT LOOKS THE COMMISSIONER OF POLICE OF DELHI HAS ACCEPTED THE VERDICT& is in the process of Taking action against the policemenWHO ERRED. SO THE PROPOSED AGITATION ON A DO OR DIE BASIS BY THE GURU IS LIKELY TO TURN OUT INTO YET ANO- THER BIG FLOP AS THE SUPREME COURT WOULD NOT BE READY TO REVERSE THE VERDICT WHICH IS DELIVERED ON VALID GROUNDS. THE OPINION OF THE COUNSEL OF THE GURU TOO WON'T PREVAIL SINCE THE APEX COURT MIGHT NOT LIKE TO PUNISH TWO PARTIES ON THE SAME SIDE SIMULTANEOUSLY FOR THE SAME OFFENCE WHICH HAS BEEN ACCEPTED BY DELHI POLICE.THE CENTRAL HOME MINISTER MIGHT ESCAPE,IF AT ALL NECESSARY,WITH A WARNING FROM THE APEX COURT. IN THE CIRCUMSTANCES,WHAT I HAD SAID IN MY BLOG DT12th of FEB,2012 where I HAD THAT SQUEEZING HARD EARNED DEMOCRACY WITH UNWARRANTED AGITATION IS NOT CORRECT &SHOULD BE AVOIDED. THIS CASE SHOWS THE POWER OF "JUDICIARY" in our CONSTITUTION.SO TO CONCLUDE,THE GOVERNING& THE GOVERNED SHOULD TAKE CARE NOT TO CHALLENGE THE AUTHORITIES RECOGNISED UNDER THE CONSTITUTION OF INDIA.

Jumbos from Kerala for minipooram in Gujrat

Of late there had been a lot of news about the Elephants of Kerala.most of the news were about the ill-treatment to the Jumbos&consequent habits of them destroying Human Life& property These innocent but the biggest animals of the world over are strict vegetarians.They are generally happy if they are properly fed& treated by their owners & papans.there are generally First Papan& Second papan. In the Hindu festival seasons these Jumbos are in high demand. A caparisoned Elephant is a treat to watch.Those who have seen THRISSUR Pooram where 15 caparisoned Elephants each belonging to the Paramekkavu Temple& Thiruvambadi Temples of THRISSUR take part with full honors. If the Elephants are happy they would move their big ears like a fan. In very rare occasions there were reports of Elephants getting Frustrated to do damages to life & property During the last few years there had been news of Elephants belonging to GVR TEMPLE& OTHER FAMOUS TEMPLES GETTING ANNOYED THESE JUMBO ELEPHANTS SHOULD HAVE BECOME THE KING OF FOREST REPLACING LION HAD THEY GOT BIG EYES INSTEAD OF SMALL ONES COMPARED TO THEIR BODY STRUCTURE. APART FROM I'LL TREATMENT ,NOW IT IS REPORTED BY SHRI A.SATHISH FROM INDIAN EXPRESS ONLINE NEWS OF KERALA DT 23/2/2012 that elephants are being shifted to a Temple of Jain Community VizPALITANA Jain TEMPLE 50KM OFF BHAVNAGAR PILGRIMAGE SITE. THE PRESIDENT OF INDIASMT PRATIBHA PATEL& SHRI NARENDRA MODI THE GUJARAT CHIEF MINISTER ARE EXPECTED TO TAKE PART IN THE MINIPOORAM FESTIVAL ON 24th&25th of FEB2012. All traditional Pooram events like PANCHAVAADYAN,PANDIMELAM,SINGARIMELAM& EVEN KUDAMATTOM ARE EXPECTED TO TAKE PLACE THERE ALSO IN THE KERALA STYLE LIKE THRISSUR POORAM.THE FOREST DEPARTMENT OF KARNATAKA IS STATED TO HAVEGIVEN PERMISSION TO EXPORT THE ELEPHANTS FROM KERALA.SHRI BINOY AN OWNER OF KERALA WHO IS SENDING THE ELEPHANTS BY LORRY IS SAID TO HAVE STATED THIS.ANOTHER OWNER SAID THEY GET RS25000/- for their aanachamayam for a day. However ,it is also said the the main Malayalee Association of KARNATAKA IS NOT AWARE OF THE EXPORT OF THE BEAUTIFUL ANIMALS FROM KERALA.NEITHER A MENTION ABOUT THE KERALA GOVERNMENT KNOWING ABOUT THIS HAS BEEN MENTIONED IN THE NEWS. THE DISTANCE THE GREAT JUMBOS HAVE TRAVEL IS MORE THAN 2000KM EACH WAY.SO ANY ONE WITH COMMON SENSE COULD IMAGINE THE STRAIN & stress the animals would have to undertake.there are doctors too accompanying the trucks being sent according to the reports. The main drawback to consider is about the health of the Jumbos& the aftermath of the minipooram When the Elephants might get tired& exhausted.no one seems to have thought about this and the consequent Threat of health hazard to the honorable Elephants of Kerala. The Cruelty to Animals is another matter to think about. We can just pray with closed eyes & folded hands to guard the Jumbosand at the same time also pray for the eyes Of people responsible to lok after them to keep their eyes opened instead of pretending as if they Do not know anything about the export.

Ezhara Ponnanakal

There is a news item/article in the Internet edition of malayalamanorama of 22nd Feb2012. This news item or article is regarding the belief of Hindus how this term has come into existence. If our opposition leader or the Party secretary happened to see this,the secretary who has deep knowledge would say an Elephant can not be split into 7&1/2.His deep knowledge is very famous now as he had ade a few comments on Thirukesam of Muslim Prophet Mohammed.he invented that any hair would burn! Similarly if the opposition Leader sees the news he would say that no one should be named after anyone's star.but he is silent about the usage of "sakhavu" popularly used for every one of the Party members. No wonder the standard of Kerala is being deteriorated beyond repair nowadays!! Those who are interested might like to read the news item first. SreedharanMundanat

The CONSTITUTION V/S POLITICAL PARTIES

In any Nation believing in Democracy,The Constitution of that Nation is the Supermost Authority under which their Government could function.

   In the Constitution of India ,different Articles have nbee laid down& they prescribe the norms for the functioning of the Government.For successfully carrying out this functioning different Institutions have been recognised& are authorised by the Constitution to perform their role usefully to enable the Governing of the Country BY THE PEOPLE,FOR THE PEOPLE&OF THE PEOPLE.
   A few such Institutions authorised by the Constitution of India are briefly as described hereunder:
1)THE PARLIAMENT CONSISTINF OF TWO HOUSES VIZ a)RajyaSabha&2)Loksabha
 How to elect people to these two houses have been clearly defined under the Constitution.
2)The Legislative Assembly:to elect people to this house also promptly described under the Constitution of India.
3)The Judiciary:
This institutution is headed by Chief Justice of the Apex Court or Supreme Court.
The High Courts all over India &all other similar Courts come within the jurisdiction of Judiciary.This institution is recognised under the Articles of Constitution of India.
4)T^he Election Commission
5)The Finance Commission headed by Chief Election Commissioner
The Election Commissions held at various States also come under the Jurisdiction of the Election Commission.
6)The Public Service Commission of the Centre as well as those held at various States Level.
7)The Comptroller&Auditor General of India.
The CAG& His Subordinate offices situated all over India(Represented by AGs of Various States) are responsible for the Financial Accounting&Auditing of all the Transactions relating to Public Money.He is empowered to report finacial irregularities in the Central Accounts&place a report in the Parliament in regard to Central Accounts as well as in the Legislative Assembly of respective States.
TheCAG is also empowered to suggest remedial measures to the Parliament&Legislative Assembly.
Ussually His reports are studied by the Public Accounts Commitee of the Parliament as well as similar commitees of the respective States where the irregularities are reported.These commitees are expected to discuss the reports in detail&take remedial Measures as deemed fit.
His reports are usually Undisputable as the reports are framed with utmost care.
The Central& State Governments can entrust to different investigating Agencies  to decide the Punishment or remedial measures deemed necessary by them.
8)the Sheduled Caste&Sheduled Tribes Commission.
There are more Institutions recognised under the Constitution of India

  Thus the Constitution rightly provide for preventing Corruption&commitments of  Financial Irregularities.
Now coming to the point ,a seperate Lokpal beyond the Powers of Constitution does not seem to be necessary &warranted.
  Even if a Lokpal Bill is passed a Lokpal made it has to be recognised under the Constitution separately for which an amendment to the Constitution would become necessary.For Amending Constitution the 2/3 Mejority in the Lok sabha on voting would become a must.
As Government is nowadays formed with MPs/MLAs of different Political Parties the 2/3 Majority does not appear to be easily manageable.
Similary the bills if Passed in Lok Sabha would require the approval from RajyaSabha the Elder House of Parliament.
In this context,the recent failure to impeach a Judge is relevant here as the Judge preferred to resign on taking his case for Impeachment.

  Thus .all the Agitations for things which are not practical like the Lokpal Bill&many a Agitation held all over the country are not properly recognised under our Constitution.
   For that matter none of the Political Parties have been recognised by the Constitution nor a mention about them have been made in the Constitution of India.
In other words all Agitations amount to unnecessary&unwarranted Squeezing of our hard Earned Democracy&should be avoided whereever necessary.

MULLAPERIYAR DAM-THE REAL FACTS

The Mullaperiyar dam issue is still burning more vigorously than before with the claim of TAMIL NAADU GETTING MORE IMPORTANCE THAN IIT EXISTED EARLIER.NOW THE TN CM IS CLAIMING NOT ONLY CONTROL BUT THE OWNERSHIP FOR THE DAM TOO.ALTHOUGH THE GOVERNMENT OF KERALA IS NOT YET READY TO APPROVE THESE CLAIMS& IS INSISTING THE CENTRAL GOVERNMENT TO CONSIDER THEIR CLAIM AS RIGHT ONE,IT LOOKS THE CENTRE IS NOT IN A POSITION TO OBLIGE THE REAL OWNERS& INSTEAD ARE FORCED TO AGREE WITH THE CLAIMS OF THE TN. NOW WHAT ALL ARE THE FACTS ABOUT THE ISSUE?LET US HAVE A LOOK AT IT THE ORIGINAL HISTORY OF THE DAM IS AS UNDER: IN IDUKKIBDISTRICT(THE PRESENT IDUKKI DISTRICT),THE THE BRITISH GOVERNMENT IN 1887 THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE DAM WAS STARTED& WAS COMPLETED IN 1895.THAT IS IN A MATTER OF 8 YEARS.THE ORIGINAL INTENTION OF THE DAM WAS TO MAKE AVAILABLE WATER FOR THE FARMERS OF MATHURA FOR CARRYING OUT AGRICULTURE SUCCESSFULLY. THE VISAKHAM THIRUNAL RAMA VARMA,THE KING OF TRAVANCORE & THE BRITISH GOVERNMENTMADE AN AGREEMENT FOR 999 YEARS TO SUPLLY WATER TO MADRAS STATE(THE PRESENT TAMIL NAADU).HOWEVER INDIA ON GETTING INDEPENDENCE THE AGREEMENT WAS IN FACT BECAME INVALID. BUT SINCE THE FARMERS OF KERALS WERE NOT READY TO CARRY OUT AGRICULTURE &PRODUCE THE REQUIRED VEGETABLE FO KERALA& HAD TO DEPEND UPON TAMILNAADU TO GET VEGETABLE SUPPLIED BY THEM TO KERALA TO MEET THE REQUIREMENT OF KERALA.IN ORDER TO FULFIL THIS ,THE TAMIL NAADU INSISTED ON SUPPLYING THEM WATER REQUIRED FROM THE MULLAPERIYAR DAM.SO AFTER PROLONGED DISCUSSION FOR A LONG TIME,IN 1970 THE CHIEF MINISTER OF KERALA SHRI C C.ACHUTHA MENON MADE A REVISED AGREEMENT AGAIN FOR SUPPLY OF WATER FROM THE DAM FOR 999 YEARS .THAT IS UNT UNTIL THE YEAR 2969.IN OTHER WORDS,THE AGREEMENT IS VALID TO SUPPLY WATER FOR YET ANOTHER957 YEARS TO TAMIL NAADU. THIS BEING SO,KERALA CAN NOT DENY SUPPLY OF WATER TO TAMIL NAADU FROM THE DAM. THE TAMIL NAADU TOOK UNDUE ADVANTAGE OF THIS EXIISTING AGREEMENT TO CLAIM WATER AT THEIR WILL AND PLEASURE.BUT THEY DID NOT BOTHER ABOUT SUPLY OF VEGETABLE TO KERALA ON A REGULAR BASIS AS IT WOULD APPEAR THIS POINT WAS NOT A PART OF THE DEAL ,TAMIL NAADU STARTED PLAYING HIDE& SEEK WITH KERALA.THEY EVEN UNSCRUPOLOUSLY INSISTED ON EXHORBITANT PRICE FOR VEGETABLE SUPPLIES TO KERALA AT THEIR WILL & PLEASURE .KERALA COULD NOT CLAIM VEGETABLE FROM TAMIL NAADU AS A MATTER OF RI .THE TAMIL NAADU HAS EVEN STARTED CLAIMING OWNERSHIP& CONTROL OVER THE DAM. SO THE KERALA CM RIGHTLY AGREED TO SUPPLY WATER UNDER THE PROVISION OF THE AGREEMENT. EVEN THEN,THE TN GOVT IS NOT READY TO AGRREING WITH ANY OF THE TERMS OF KERALA LIKE CONSTRUCTING NEW DAM FEARING THAT KERALA MIGHT STOP SUPPLYING WATER TO THEM AS SOON AS THE NEW DAM IS COMPLETED. AS THERE WAS NO CLEAR CUT TERMS IN THE AGREEMENT OF1970 ABOUT THE WATER LEVEL TO BE MAINTAINED TN STARTED INSISTING ON THE RISING OF THE LEVEL FROM THE THEN EXISTED LEVEL OF 136 feet to 152FEET AS A RESULT OF DIFFERENT PETITIONS FILED IN THE KERALA HIGH COURT&MADRAS HIGHCOURT BY DIFFERENT PERSONS. FINALLY DR.SUBRAMANIAM SWAMY FILED A PETITION IN THE SUPREME COURT ON 5thAUGUST1998 TO TRANSFER THE Court CASES TO SUPREME COURT.ON DECEMBER 13 1999 THE APEX COURT CONSIDERED THE CASE & SUGGESTED THE BE DECIDED BY DISCUSSION BY BOTH THE STATES.THOUGH A DISCUSSION WAS HELD AT TRIVANDRUM ON april5th No agreement reached between the two CMs ofTAMILNAADU & Kerala. The dispute is going on like this since then insisting on rising level& lowering level IN THE MEANTIME MANY EARTHQUAKES TOOK PLACE AND ANXIETY TO THE CAPABILITY OF THE OLD DAM HAS BECOME OF VITAL IMPORTANCE. THE REST OF THE DISPUTES ARE WELL KNOWN TO EVERY ONE. THE OPINION OF ,SHRI MK PARAMESWARAN NAIR CHAIRMAN OF THE MULLAPERIYAR DAM,SHRI JOHN MATHAI THE SCIENTIST OF CENTRE FOR EARTH SCIENCE STUDIES,THE TECHNICAL DATA ABOUT THE DAM & the chanced of The dam collapsing if an earthquake of high intensity occurs etc etc pointed out by IIT ROURKKEE ALL POINTS OUT TO A CALAMITY THAT MIGHT TAKE PLACE IF AN EARTHE QUAKE OF ABOVE 6 on RECTOR SCALE TAKES PLACE.BUT NOT TO THE SATISFACTION OF TN CM. EVEN IF WE ALLOW 99% correctness to the views of TN,the one percent possibility of a collapse CAN NOT BE TOTALLY RULED OUT. ON THIS ONE PERCENT DEPENDS THE LIVES OF LAKHS OF PEOPLE OF KERALA STAYING AROUND THE DAM& upto ERNAKULAM. NO ONE CAN PREDICT THE OCCURANCE OF AN EARTH QUAKE OF HIGH AS MUCH AS 6 orEVEN HIGHER ON RECTOR SCALE WHAT THE GOVERNMENTS OF TN& Kerala should think about is the safety Of life ant property of PEOPLE THE NATURE WOULD NEVER TELL TN OR KERALA BEFORE IT DECIDES TO STRIKES. SO LET US PRAY WITH CLOSED EYES AND FOLDED HANDS TO GIVE WISDOM TO THE CONCERNED PEOPLE TO OPEN THEIR EYES AT LEAST NOW BEFOR IT IS TOO LATE!!! SREEDHARAN MUNDANAT SUPREME COURT.
