Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

With regards,

Prakash / Piyush / Nitin ko Kyun Gussa aata hai ?


Because they keep looking at the following figures re CHINA and feel very frustrated !

CHINA ,

*  Consumes approx 50 % of entire World's consumption of Steel and
    Cement , every year

*  Has built one brand new city every 20 days , during last 20 years
  
*  Plans to build one brand new city every 18 days for next 20 years

*  Plans to move 350 million rural people to these cities in the next 15
   years
   ( some 2 million people every month ! )

*  Is building 3 * 1000 MW coal-based power stations , every month

*  Added 13 GW of Solar Power plants in 2014. Will take total installed
    capacity to 100 GW by 2018

*  Against India's GDP at $ 1.88 Trillion , China's GDP is $ 9.24 Trillion

*  Even if we manage to raise our GDP to 10 % per year , and even if
   China's  GDP were to decline to 7 % , it will take us a few decades to
   catch up with China

Of course , Prakash / Piyush / Nitin firmly believe :

*  Being able to  vote  freely and elect MP of your choice is  GOOD

*  Being able to form democratically  elected  Govt is  BETTER

*  Being able to  debate  issues in Lok Sabha is  BEST

But ,

*  Being able to save 1.6 million children ( under the age of 5 ) , dying
   from starvation every year ( 4,383 / day ) , is  DIVINE
   

Mahatma Gandhi once said :

" In the hands of starving , God appears in the form of bread "


Citizens of India are saying :


Our Beloved Netas ,


This coming Oct 2 , please save us from the spectacle of laying flowers on Bapu's samadhi !

Please shed your crocodile tears in the privacy of your homes !

Addendum on  30  Sept  2019 :

After struggling for 3 years, Niti Aayog has developed a fairly elaborate framework for rating / ranking of various States on their " Ease of doing Business "


In the meantime, China has gone far far ahead and developed / installed " digital data compilation " of its 33 million Corporate and 1.4 Billion citizen 


On dozens of parameters , corporate and citizen are being rated / ranked and offered benefits / incentives if ranked " Good " and punished / deprived of benefits, if ranked " Bad "  !

To know the details of this " State Surveillance " system,  read :
