Educationally Bankrupt Are Up Against Intellectuals

T here is nothing wrong with the intellectuals. Our hate mongering politicians and sick minds like Pushpendra Kulshrestha supported by the parochial bhagva clerics or the muslim clerics like alims, imams or muftis or maulvis like Maulana Shabbir Ali Asad Warsi of Kolkata supported by leaders like Owaisis, Zakir Naik, and  are always busy in spewing venom and acts of  destroying the fabric of harmony. These are the magots and worms of society. These are the very harmful parasites to eat up and thus destroy the structural health of society. Can Modi or any politician like Rahul Gandhi, Yogi, Mayavati, Akhilesh, Nitish come anywhere nearer to the intellectuals?

DISINVESTMENT UNDER KILLING ECONOMIC CRISIS

There is nation-wide debate as regards to the government's compulsive helplessness to part her stakes in PSUs to sell them to private business houses to raise funds through disinvestment without losing control over the public owned enterprises. The media and the government in particular have not been able to enlighten well the nation on disinvestment. In fact the government has been spewing so much lies and false assurances so far and due to non-fulfilment of promises she made that it lost her credibility for raising funds through sale and disinvestment. Correctly speaking after assuming office for 2nd term the government is hell bent to sell outright or go for 100% strategic disinvestment of many PSUs.  Some of the key disinvestments that were announced by the government in her 2nd term of office but couldn’t proceed due to market conditions are General Insurance Corporation of India Ltd. and New India Assurance Company Ltd. MSTC Ltd. through Initial Public Openings (IPO) Strategi
