Bluff Politics

Rahul Gandhi's announcement to provide assured annual income of ₹ 72,000/- for  20% of India's poor population is nothing but an attempt at one of the usual election statements (a jumla) to lure voters. Leave aside the burden on country's exchequer of about ₹ 3.60 lakh crore but the fact remains no homework has been done to
1. identify the poor lot and
2. authenticate their income to top up the difference

Come election and the political parties are reminded of the poor. In between nobody bothers for the poor. Mrs Indira Gandhi's Garibi Hatao slogan, Modi's ₹ 15 lacs in every Indian's bank account, 2 crore jobs annually to the unemployed, implementation of Swaminathan Commission's recommendations for farmers were just few of the election statements to lure voters. No homework was done to convince the veracity of the announcements made to the nation. ₹ 3.5 lakh crore worth NPAs were waived for the industrialists by Modi government instead.

The Congress will waste whole 5 years to identify and prepare a list of 20%  the poor with no result as Modi wasted his full term for  MSP classifications for farmers without result.

My dear voter think twice before voting for a lesser evil with party in mind. Choose a better person irrespective of party…. or press NOTA button as there is no paucity of people to press button for a lesser evil with party in mind. The purpose must justify our action if weak or fractured mandate gives the political parties the message that the voter is not a fool and bluff politics will not work any further.
