How Indian federalism is threatened?

I was forced to write this article as i felt very disturbed with the latest round of  geo political issues the country faces and it really threatens the existence of India as a whole.

The UPA government is grappling issues from across all sectors and i thought of highlighting them individually.

1.Indian Economy

With very high fiscal deficit, lack of political will for fiscal reforms, policy paralysis, crumbling GDP figures and IIP figures, etc,.. I don’t even see any place where there is sun shine. The scams from Coalgate to 2G spectrum is preventing the government from making any policy decisions.

2. Internal Security

Chidambaram who somewhat showed that he can make tough stance against terrorists by revamping the internal security mechanism failed to take state governments on board on NCTC as it somewhat appeared to be encroaching the authority of states. They must have better continued using POTA. Still Maoism and cross border terrorism is continuing unabated.

Coming to the recent ethnic clashes in Assam, BODO’s and illegal Muslim settlers from Bangladesh, the Government handled badly with local clashes spilling over and affecting the life of entire country. The Congress government is in dilemma to balance vote bank and national security.

We can’t feel pity on north eastern states for their plight, as it is self manufactured by them in late 80’s as they violently sent all the outsiders from their states and to stop the violence Indian air force bombarded its own cities. Since there was no free media those days we didn’t know. None ventured there to start any business and it soon became economically backward. The government should repel the acts such as only native state people can buy property in their states which is a handicap in Kashmir and the people can’t feel Indian if there is such acts. The oneness of India is absent in those places till that we will be split in various lines of ethnicity, caste, religion,etc,.

India Vs China : Reasons for the mismatch in Sports

We always lament our own Indians that they are not bringing enough medals from international tournaments, but we never realize that the root cause.

1.We Indians talk a lot but practically everyone sees it as a waste of time.

2.No one is encouraged for taking sports as a career option.

3. Chine is a big factory which produces products in a mass scale, similarly they train the machines (chinese athletes) with sole aim of winning medals.

eg: Their strategy in throwing games for easier fixtures in Q/F of london olympics

4. There is no factory in India like that. Even famed Kutraleshwaran who swam a lot disappeared from scene and he used sports quota just to get into Anna University.

5. Finally athletes have to overcome corruption, nepotism, scandals to come into limelight.

With many more ‘n’ number of reasons expectation is waste.
