Policy Faultlines

"A country which has largest cross river delta of Ganges-Yamuna and second largest Brahmaputra-Ganges rivers along with marvelous kaleidoscope of fifty-six rivers across the nation has a lot to promise from this world"

World is turning into concrete! The urbane development structure is expanding. Fertile farmland is turning into parking, skyscrapers, roads, rails and everything which eases routine life of man.
Increasing ground acidic value, reducing irrigable land, depletion of ground water, reduction in rainfall average are the alarming challenges in food production.
On top of it world population is getting way higher than seven billion humans. What we produce in our farms is not only needed to humans but also to domestic animals as well. The Agro Produce and by products serves close to 13billion trunks globally. Population which is heavily based upon natural food is increasing persistently. What is further ironic is the fact that human induced pollution is depleting the ecology which is crucial in growing crops.
The need of the hour is to create systems which make agriculture independent from climate and geological conditioning of the farm land available. In Indian subcontinent, it is largely underestimated segment of education largely due to several theological and mythological theories. However due to increasing food inflation the perception of the farmers is changing. Unorganized conventional methods cultivation is lethally harming the farmers engaged in cultivation on the other hand side increasing demand supply gap is triggering exponentiation of food prices in urbane retail. Market forces are betting upon the quality, hygiene and packaging aspects to develop brands based marketing strategy for the agro-commodities. Unplanned irrigation, usage of fertilizers, pesticides and tampered timelines of cropping is playing havoc in Indian Agriculture sector.
Government policies of subsiding mid day meals, education and promoting unwanted as well as highly unskilled employment in rural areas where population is based upon agriculture is potentially harming the food production, procurement and transpiration. All these events put together are creating circumstances where third pillar of Indian economy is drying quite unexpectedly.
Indian subcontinent is having enormous potential for developing, upgrading and engaging technology in agriculture. A subcontinent which is heavily populated with semi-skilled labor and poor technological infrastructure needs immediate overhauling. A country which has largest cross river delta of Ganges-Yamuna and second largest Brahmaputra-Ganges rivers along with marvelous kaleidoscope of fifty-six rivers across the nation has a lot to promise from this world.

The need is the intention to correct the big wrong things. We have to elect sensible policy makers who can grow up from communal and capitalistic ideologies. Think it over…

My letter to Mr. Chetan Bhagat

Sent to bhakti@chetanbhagat.com  as on 26, August 2013, In response to Mr. Bhagat's Article  Sunday Times, 25th August 2013, Indore Edition  Dear Mr. Bhagat, This is awful that a person of your stature is out rightly supporting a cult publicly. Knowing that millions of youth will be influenced by your opinion, you should have behaved more responsibly in public. We know media is sold to Modi and international big brothers want to use Modi cult by giving rest to UPA for at least a term. For international diplomacy BJP & Congress are all alike. While these two national parties will keep wrestling over their core ideologies of being Hindu Nationalists & Secular Nationalists, they will always settle on the economic policies favoring to international markets. They will be ready to provide free flow accessibility of Indian consumers & natural resources to foreign corporate giants. It is sadly termed as a real growth of India. Because if foreign inve...

The Cusp of Democracy & Autocracy

A country where earning Rs.18 a day tags you not poor, Election Commission spends Rs.73 per voter to conduct the general election  - Jitendra Rajaram "O ut of 123 democratic countries in the world, not a single country is 100% democratic. Not a single democracy conducts 100% impartial election. In India where 36% population lives in a $1 a day, the cost of election is more than $1 a vote. The irony doesn't end here! The political parties conesting in such elections have spent more $13 to woo every single elector in 2019 General Election of India. Owing the amount of money spent, should we call it a democracy or plutocracy? Nic Cheeseman and Brian Klass wrote in the first page of their book “How to Rig an Election” with a statement “The greatest political paradox of our time is this: there are more elections than ever before, and yet the world is becoming less democratic”. The book written by Nic Cheeseman & Brian Klass, Harper Collins Publication | Yale Univers...

Theocracy Strengthens Aristocracy and Defies Democracy.

"It was easy in ancient time for religions to progress for two reasons. One every civilization was miles apart from every other civilization" - Jitendra Rajaram   "T he mixture of fear and weakness among the people who surrenders to feudalism has enlarged the idea of God-ism. The theory first coined by the power hungry ruling class and their serfs. People, when united, are the ultimate power. The select few (ruling class) always wanted to control this power of people. The control of power is all about channelizing the energy it holds. This is how the need of an imaginary superpower evolved. A superpower which can channelize the energy of united people. Ruling class invented this imaginary power to tame the real power (i.e. people).  Had I ONLY been introduced to anyone of Brahma or Allah or Moses or Christ during my childhood I would have easily believed upon god. The creators of God (i.e. Ruling Class) have devised so circumventing methods to establish...
