Bharat Bandh - 5th July,2010 - A Historical Event !!!

            240th BLOG -->>

        As I promised, I am going to talk about the Bharat Bandh in this blog. Day before yesterday, I came to know that Maharashtra will be bandh on 5th July. I was confused that is Maharashtra Day changed and will it be celebrated on 5th of July in future and this is the 1st start. I was also confident that it is Maharashtra Day as I heard something about the parties like MNS and SHIVSENA participating in it but when I went into details and explored what really is on 5th of July, I came to know that it's again an act by Indian citizens which are said to have objectives of proliferating the society but it will result in the loss of the nation. I was so shocked to hear this that when Pakistan is quiet and they aren't troubling us like they did on 26/11 and many a times before that with their talents of spreading terror, we, the Indians are ourselves hitting us. The main party which launched this idea of Bharat Bandh was BJP and other alliances and Left parties with these MNS and Shivsena. The objective of this historical Bharat Bandh was to spread their voice and let it reach the government to stop rising the price of household communities which is making a life of a common man difficult.

            If you are reading this blog, I know you are an educated person, so please tell me whether this way of making your voice reach government's ears a right way or a disastrous way? Now don't reply me with a sign of stupidity that what I have to do with this? I am getting holiday and that is what I want. Please. If your answer is this, don't read this blog ahead because this is for the true citizens of India who love their country and don't want it to be ruined by some people who aren't co-operating with our Indian government. Everyone of us know that its getting difficult day by day as the cost of everything is rising up. Even I had said the same in my previous 5 blogs but protesting it in such a way isn't a solid way of showing your aggression. Throwing stones on people, puncturing the tire of buses, not letting the train move, warning the taxi-drivers and auto-drivers to remain absent on the day, not letting any shopkeeper to open their shops. Is this the way to let the government know that we all are bearing the pains of high costs? I don't know how such craps enters a normal human being's mind. Rather than this, all the parties should have sat together, planned how to deal with this, ask people and youth to give their ideas and suggestions on the official websites of government. But No, they just want to show their physical strength and not mental strength. Actually, the people doing so don't have brains.

            Yesterday, it was Bharat bandh, the married women who were pregnant and wanted to reach hospitals as soon as possible can't go because of this Bharat Bandh, the earning children who got the news of their old age parent's demise or illness can't go to see them as the mode of transport was stopped, the students who came to Mumbai or MH for their exams couldn't attend it, the workers who lives in slum and eat their dinner after working for the whole day earned nothing and hence slept with empty stomachs. These are the few examples I have mentioned here. How much have we suffered, the victims can speak clearly than what I am doing here. 175 buses were damaged yesterday and 10 drivers were injured. Stones were pelted at 155 buses in Mumbai. 122 trucks arrived in the fruit market, but 56 of them left. The tires of 8 buses were deflated. Out of 4000 BEST buses in Mumbai, only 865 were on the road. The highway crossing Marine Drive had no vehicles running on it which normally is always into a big traffic daily. These are few damages I know which were the part of Bharat Bandh. 

             Bharat Bandh was meant for drowning the costs of household commodities and Petrol, diesel etc. But Mumbai itself has suffered the loss of 1000 crore economically, the Maharashtra has suffered 3000 crore while the whole nation has suffered the loss of 10,000 crores (These figures can differ). Now, the government will again rise the taxes to gain all these losses. What was the use of this BHARAT BANDH? I have nothing to say now after all this. I just want to request our corrupt politicians to stop hurting people just for the sake of their political gimmicks. And I would also ask some brainless Indian citizens to stop flowing in the words of these political parties and others those who don't participate but are happy just because they gained a holiday. A very bad feeling. VERY VERY BAD. 

            This is all I wanted to say. The useful informations are sourced from Hindustan Times. 

Thanks.
