Thread: मितव्ययी सरकार

#StopPrivatisation
#speakup
#GDP

देश की जीडीपी बहुत गिर गयी है। इसलिए सरकार आजकल खर्चे कम करने में लगी है।
अब MP, MLA, और मंत्रियों के तो खर्चे कम होने से रहे। भई मंत्री तो 70 की उम्र का है तो गर्मी में नहीं रह सकता उसको तो AC चाहिए, सर्दी में नहीं रह सकता, हीटर चाहिए, पैदल नहीं चल सकता, गाड़ी चाहिए, और इन सबके लिए फ्री बिजली और डीजल चाहिए।
बड़ा सा बगीचा है उसके लिए दिन का हजारों लीटर पानी चाहिए। फिर सेवा करने के लिए घर में 10-12 नौकर चाहिए, खानसामा चाहिए, माली चाहिए, ड्राइवर चाहिए, 20-25 सिक्योरिटी गार्ड चाहिए। फिर फ्री की हवाई यात्रा, विदेश यात्रा भी चाहिए।

I think that if Modi deserves credit for the thought behind this event, then he sure as hell deserves the criticism for not having thought things through. What could've been a step in the right direction, turned out being 2 in the wrong. #JantaCurfew #Covid_19india #5baje5minute
Also, shout-out to these idiots who skipped through the entire address by the PM and went mad for the "taali bajana, thaali bajana and ghanti bajana". The man spent 20 minutes explaining the need for social distancing and this is what they took from it! 🤦🏻‍♂️

While I recognise how #5baje5minute serves the purpose of uniting people and creating an air of positivity in these testing times, I'm skeptical of the intentions of this move and what results it may yield.



1/n
Such a move rings a bell (no pun intended) for anyone who has studied chinese history.
Chinese dictator Mao called for farmers to clang pots and pans to carry out the unscientific 'sparrowcide', to help get rid of pests in 1950s China.



2/n
Of course, the stated intentions for these two unrelated actions were completely different.
@narendramodi sought to applaud the people fighting #COVID19 on the frontlines, while only God knows what Mao was trying to achieve.
