So yet another thought on FDI in
retail? topical blogging eh? But what to
do then - this is what everyone has been talking about for a long time now and my
puny brain with limited access to knowledge is bound to get influenced. However, I will refrain myself from talking
its implications- All News Channels hosts, Indian Intelligentsia, Humanitarians
are talking about it and I have a feeling I might end up emulating them
Besides I don’t want to dilute my
core topic today- India’s reaction towards change (read Govt. New
policies/schemes)
Accept it or not, we Indians have
been fooled by government so much that we have stopped believing in the system
at all. Even though sometime government do things/bring policies (let’s not question the intent here, for we all
we go in different tangent then) which are actually beneficial for India as
whole, Indians start protesting it before its implementation (or drafting
sometimes)- It actually kills enthusiasm of the whole project
Its Conditional Reflex, They (Govt) introduce a
policy/bill/scheme/anything and We
(Indians) Protest!
I remember liberalization of
economy dated back late 90s. Here the ever so quite P.V Narsimha Rao thought of
liberalizing the Indian Economy and there BAM!! Entire India is on street! I remember
rallies and protests where white Kurta clad, Allahabad Universities Student
Head/would be Politicians ,were actually throwing ‘so-called-imported’ stuff (clothes
basically) in fire and shouting “Angrezon Bharat Chhodo!!” (Seriously I am laughing as I am writing!) Later
these would be politicians were found celebrating
– after tearing few shirts, breaking few
vehicles and middle finger to law -at the local bar; todays special order “Aaj
to Angrezi piyenge”
That’s what it is! Nobody is
bothered about the common man. He is still stray, still clueless!! – If 100s
are saying its BAD its BAD, join in! If
FDI in retail will come what will happen to the mom & pop shops? in 20 years they are
like my family… they will go out of
business, poor and homeless and what not common man is compassionate, that
why he is being exploited. His heart is more commanding than brain. His heart
is letting them (hypocrites) win!
However, I am happy, after all
the revolt and non-cooperation, FDI in retail is passed! Many Thanks to UP
majors SP, BSP- I Love you guys, for the first time you actually DID something
for the nation, YOU DID NOT VOTE!!
I am looking forward to its
implications – I am sure it’s not going
to be what social workers/opposition is pointing at! It’s all going to be
good. India will shine again
I read it again. I understood the WHOLE thing. Cant wait for a LOOONNNGGGGG descriptive post on the same topic ;)
ReplyDeleteVery well written, I good to see someone relying on her own mind and speak to rather than join in the crowd.
ReplyDeleteKeep it up!
By the way, I also agree that FDI is good for our economy, everything else is politics.
I agree with you...yay to the FDI passing:)

yes nothing wrong with the FDI in fact I feel it will help Indian manufactures improve and compete--as for the small shops they will continue to cater to the group that they do --as it is there is a certain section which patronizes MALLS even now
ReplyDeleteInteresting angle, I must say. :)
