RBI Governor on Crony Capitalism

Dear  friends,
We have a FB site of our old school where we put in our views.
Recently I had written the following comments of the RBI Governors statement on Crony Capitalism.
It created quite a to and for comments, which is worth reading by all AAP members.

Is there any such thing as a FREE LUNCH?
Except for saints, will anyone help you without strings attached.
Will capitalists give you money if it is not going to benefit them?
The RBI governor gives you the answer.

Sujay Sahu On which free lunch did AAP contest the elections? Will AAP be paying back the money that they burned?

Sanjay Kumar Singh Why did the people give AAP money if they did not expect any thing in return? Is AAP going to return all the "donations"they took so that they will not have to do the donors any flavors. "Crony Capitalism" doesn't apply to AAP while collecting all the crores for the last election. Or does a different yard stick apply to AAP when it does the same things the other parties do. I think AAP will distance itself from any thing that has capitalism in it, maybe what AAP does can be called "Crony-Communism" after all your principles are more left then the left , in fact they are even more left than DIDI. Maybe that is why APP get left out.

Radheshyam Sharma People gave money to AAP so that AAP would give them a clean government and AAP will when it comes to power in Delhi. The Ambanis and Adanis gave money to the BJP so that the BJP would tweak the rules so that their profits would increase manifold. The AAP works for the common man and the BJP works only for the rich. The common man does not expect the money back, it is a contribution to improve the nation. BJP is already paying back to the Ambanis by restricting the power of Anti Corruption Bureau in Delhi so that it does not file criminal charges against Mukesh Ambani.

Suhasini Sharma Why do you always speak in favour of AAP? Have you personally experienced something or are they just your views??

Sujay Sahu He is just married to AAP so he has no option.

Radheshyam Sharma I am now 66 years of age.
Although I am not a student of political science, I have been observing without joining politics since I was in college in 1966.
I was against Indira Gandhi's nationalisation of banks and abolition of Privy Purses for the Princes and had sent my views to Indira Gandhi herself. I believe, an agreement is an agreement and it should not be violated.
She had sent a reply which did not satisfy me.
I was against Indira's Emergency and when the Congress lost in 1977 I went first thing in the morning to my brother-in-law's place to give him sweets, for he was a die hard supporter of Indira Gandhi.
I had high hopes of the Janata Dal but in just one year, Chandrasekhar, Charan Singh and the others showed they were no different from the Congress.
With Atal leading the BJP, I started supporting the BJP as there was no third choice.
I continued supporting the BJP until they started producing people like Bangaru Laxman and Yedyurappa. The final nail was the picture of Sushma Swaraj standing behind the seated Reddy brothers and blessing them.
Fortunately, at that time Anna's movement started.
Their aim was to root out corruption and I became a contributing member of IAC. After two rounds of fast and the government refusing to pass the Lok Pal Bill, Arvind Kejriwal rightly realized that the corrupt politicians would not cut the branches they were sitting on.
IAC sent out SMS to all IAC members requesting their views whether to form a political party.
I was one of the millions of YES voters.
The overwhelming view was to form a political party.
Anna who initially agreed to send out the SMS, but back tracked for some reason and so Arvind formed AAP.
Here is a party which is doing what it preaches. All the candidates selected by AAP in the last Lok Sabha elections were great persons with none having any criminal charges against them.
On the other hand, all the other parties foisted people with criminal records.
Except for 4 AAP candidates from Punjab, all others lost.
Why?
It must have been a combination of any or all of the following causes.
1) The main reason was the mess created by the Congress in the last 10 years, made the people just want a change like Mamata Banerjee seeping away the CPM in Bengal.
2) Modi had done a good job in promoting Gujarat through an advertisement Blitzkrieg led by Amitabh Bacchan and so people decided to give him a chance.
3) Limitless source of unaccounted money so that people were bombarded by his voice and image, wherever one went and whatever media one viewed or listened.
4) Using money and muscle power to brow-beat the opposition and even sending them to hospital.
5) AAP's own lack of resources as it depended on the common man and accepted only white money.
What is my interest in AAP?
At my age, my interest is that India should have an honest government.
India is presently the butt of all jokes in the western countries for their corrupt and criminal politicians.
India stands 94th in the world Corruption Perception Index. Oh! yes, we could thump our backs and say look, Pakistan stands 127th.
Why can't we find ourselves in this list of the least corrupt?
Rank Country Score
1 Denmark 91
1 New Zealand 91
3 Finland 89
3 Sweden 89
5 Norway 86
5 Singapore 86
7 Switzerland 85
8 Netherlands 83
9 Australia 81
9 Canada 81.
People say that Modi himself is not corrupt.
People also felt the Manmohan Singh was not corrupt but see what a mess he has made of the economy. You yourself may not be corrupt but when you turn a blind eye and allow it to flourish, you will be accused of corruption.
Modi has a minister in his cabinet who is accused of rape. He has health minister who instead of taking action on the corrupt, is taking action on the person who is fighting corruption in AIIMS. What idea does it give you?
On the other hand, Arvind Kejriwal is not only honest himself but does not tolerate corruption by any member.
That is the difference.
There may be some errors in the selection process and some corrupt person may gain entry into AAP but they will be weeded out.
As long as Arvind is there, we can be sure that AAP will be an honest party.
In his intention to give India an honest government he may have made some errors in judgement as he did not gauge the mamoth strength of the opposition which controls the media too.
I have not only contributed by donating money but also my time to AAP in the hope that some time in the future we will get an honest government when people see through the Modi "Acche Din" syndrome

Suhasini Sharma Every coin has two sides... Just flip over the coin... You will come to know why Anna Hazare Wasn't ready to join politics, the reason behind Arvind Kejriwal entering into politics and then leaving the post og CM of Delhi such disgracefully

Sanjay Kumar Singh Right, very wrll said. Some people think that all coins are like the Sholay coin. How blissfully ignorant they are .. Well to each his own except that they should not constantly deride others on their choices because it is different or inconvenient for tem.

Suhasini Sharma Haan right.. I will not say that Radheshyam Sharma galat keh rahe hai... bas wo wahi dkh rahe hai jo AAP sabko dikhane ki koshish kr rhi h... Itni badi post ko itne irresponsible tarike se chodna proves that Arvind Kejriwal never deserved anything better.

Umesh Singhania So the war has stared Again....Keep Going Guys.....All the Best.....

Suhasini Sharma No war.. just presenting views respectfully on a worthy topic

Umesh Singhania Yes yes....U r right......War in the sense War Using Words.....

Radheshyam Sharma Anna Hazare did not want to form a political party as he did not want to dirty himself.
Arvind said to change the system, if we have to dirty ourselves, so be it.
Anna thought he could get the Lok Ppal bill passed .
How wrong he was?
The Jokepal bill was finally passed by the same BJP government after Arvind won the Delhi elections. Anna also went along in the got up dharna (to retrieve some prestige) at Ralegaon which was completely organised by the BJP with V K Singh and Kiran Bedi in the lead.
You won't get any AAP news on the regular news channels unless the news is detrimental to AAP for as I said earlier, the complete media has been bought over by the Ambani & Adanis so that only BJP is put in good light. If you want to know AAP news, you will have to visit our FB or Net site. But why bother when it is much easier to flick a switch and view the trash purveyed by the paid media.
Arvind resigned as he could not get the Lokpal bill passed and wanted to go back to the electorate to give him a fresh mandate.
He agrees that he was wrong in resigning WITHOUT ASKING THE PEOPLE'S OPINION AS HE HAD DONE BEFORE ASSUMING OFFICE.Note the emphasis is on the part given in capital letters. We still believe we were right in resigning. We do not believe in sticking to our chairs like leaches without performing.
The Bhagoda title was given by the BJP and paid media.
As it is, they would have criticised him for whatever he did.
If he had not resigned they would have said that he was sticking to his chair like a leach.
The Congress and BJP have neither formed a government nor held a re-election.
The BJP has been trying to cause defections from the Congress and AAP to form a government but have failed so far.
Finally, the Supreme Court has had to pull up the Central Government for not holding elections nor forming a government and given them time up to 9th September.
Why is the BJP scared of holding elections in Delhi in spite of winning all the Lok Sabha seats from Delhi?
It is because Modi has not been able to keep his promise of "Acche Din ayenge". Instead he is just encouraging more corruption as we have seen by the removal of the CVO of AIIMs for enquiring into corruption of BJP people associated with AIIMS.
This is what Hooda did when he transferred Ashok Khemka for enquiring into Robert Vadra's dealings.
That time the BJP was very vociferous.
Why is the BJP voice silent now?
As you said, two sides of the coin - but the sides we have been saying are the Congress and the BJP, both equally corrupt.
The Congress had an excuse as they had to depend on their allies like the DMK who were deeply involved in the scams. A.Raja, Dayanidhi Raja were from the DMK.
But the BJP has no such excuse. It has got once in a life time opportunity to rid the country of corruption.
But Modi is just not interested.
He only gives lip service against corruption, rape, blah! blah! blah! for the gullible people. He even has a minister accused of rape in his cabinet and the finance minister calls the Delhi rape a minor affair.

Suhasini Sharma I give up... _/\_... itna to mujhe pata hi nahi

Radheshyam Sharma That is the tragedy with the new generation.
They listen only to the news purveyed by the media which is totally adulterated.
You should get an alternate view which you will never get from them for the media are all owned by corporate entities who are interested in just prolonging the hold of the existing parties.
If you want to get a view of the opposite party, just go to AAP Facebook site https://www.facebook.com/AamAadmiParty.
All those who oppose me in FB are probably in their 30s and 40s and are enamored by the BJP.
They little realize that once I too was enamored by them and supported the BJP. But their miscellaneous corrupt acts have opened my eyes that there is no difference between the BJP and Congress.
The AAP is like a breath of fresh air which will remove all the foul air hovering over India.
No, I am not married to AAP but I believe in Arvind Kejriwal and the change he promises in India are also what I want.
Yes, he is in the minority now but his thoughts are what all Indians want and HE WILL SUCCEED.
As they say you can fool some of the people all the time and all the people some of the time but you cannot fool all the people all the time.
Modi has already said, for 4 years, "Acche din" will come only for the Ambanis and Adanis. In the 5th year, when the elections will come, he will think of the Aam Aadmi.
For 66 years the Congress and BJP have been fooling Indians.
It is now time to change that.
