Scoundrels in Rath Flying over Poverty Line, Communalism, Casteism

 

Scoundrels in Rath Flying over Poverty Line, Communalism, Casteism   In Indian history and mythology we are told Gods, Kings and great warriors would lead the battle in a decorated Rath with the aim of defeating the Devils, and Evil & Unjust Kings but Advani Rath Yatra is Scoundrels flying over poverty Line, Communalism and Casteism out to Overthrow duly elected Government that it couldn't defeat on its own since founding of RSS in 1925, mother of BJP.   UPA government sent Rs. 1 crore per village every year in last three years (Rs.35,382 crores, Rs.40,000 crores & Rs.44,000 crores) but there was no invest visible for 30 kilometers – over Rs.100,000 crores released by GOI forBihar since April2009.   Advani and other leaders Flew in Private Helicopter over Poverty Line, Communalism and Casteism prevailing in Bihar.    http://rbidocs.rbi.org.in/rdocs/Publications/PDFs/23T_HBFD0710.pdf   Here in above RBI document it is evident Bihar was getting over 10% of Central Taxes since 1980 and earlier.   But there was not a single Electricity pole to seen around Sitar Diara village of JP who led the 1975 overthrow of Congress Government. Punjab was fully electrified in 1976.   There was no Paved Road for over 30 kilometer connecting the village of JP.   On the eve of Rath Yatra by Scoundrels – a layer of Bitumen Surface was laid that would wear of in few days to hide no just the Absence of Development but Total Loot. Obviously there was no sanitation and water supply also.   But the organizers built over 20 ft high Tents around the inauguration venue to hide Poverty and Loot of Money Dispatched by GOI.   Ravinder Singh October12, 2011   Look who's tired and who isn't retired  - Sushma, Jaitley throw up after rath AC 'acts up' NALIN VERMA AND PTI   Oct. 11: Neither tired nor retired, the all-weather repartee with which the BJP used to swat away suggestions of a power struggle when Atal Bihari Vajpayee was in power, hit the party's "younger generation" like a blast of hot air on an air-conditioned rath today.   If the spring in the step of L.K. Advani, who is showing signs of neither tiredness nor retirement, was unmistakable, so was the exhaustion on the faces of younger colleagues like Arun Jaitley and Sushma Swaraj.   Jaitley and Sushma, both diabetics, felt nauseous and threw up in the air-conditioned Swaraj Mazda rath as it wound its way from Chhapra to Patna in the 34°C heat, while the 83-year-old veteran of many a rath yatra stood out as a study in fitness. What could have been dismissed as a bad day on the road became a debate on fitness as party sources went into an overdrive and put out a hair-splitting version of a diagnosis.   The sources said Jaitley, 58, and Sushma, 59, were seated at the back of the bus, where cooling was minimal because of a glitch in the air-conditioner's exhaust. Advani was seated in the front, and apparently "got fresh air at regular intervals since the doors were being opened".   "The low oxygen level in the rear of the bus caused their illness," a BJP leader said, unwittingly betraying the deep thought that had gone into the causes of the discomfort.   Advani had begun his 40-day yatra against corruption from the dusty sand bowl of Sitabdiara, where the blazing sun and the sapping humidity had seemed to take a toll on the younger BJP duo.   Both looked jaded and somewhat tired as they sat on the dais in a sandfield by the river Ghaghra at Lalatola, a part of Jaya Prakash Narayan's ancestral villageof Sitabdiara, where Bihar chief minister Nitish Kumar was doing the honours.   In contrast, Advani — dressed in cream dhoti-kurta and black jacket, with a streak of vermilion on his forehead — looked fitter and more agile, despite the heat and the dust and the rigours of a long-haul yatra looming.   Both Sushma and Jaitley got off the rath and into BJP MP Rajiv Pratap Rudy's car at Hajipur and headed to Patna, where they are staying the night. Late in the evening, Sushma tweeted: "We are all fine in Patna. There was some problem with the air-conditioning, leading to suffocation."   The "glitch" in the cooling system of the rath is likely to set off titters, considering that Narendra Modi's decision to sit on his sadbhavna fast in the air-conditioned Gujarat University Convention Centre had raised a laugh last month.   Or, Modi might just feel like taking a swipe at the state of air-conditioning inBihar, where Nitish had blocked him from campaigning for the elections last year.   Earlier, announcing the start of the yatra at Sitabdiara, Nitish said: "I will not support your (Advani's) yatra only through words and speeches. I will support it through dynamic actions, too.   "I welcome you to Bihar, which has already initiated effective steps to nail corrupt officials. You have your government in Bihar, which has shown the nation the way to battle the scourge of corruption."   Smiling, Advani replied: "I knew Bihar was up for a big change under his stewardship when the NDA won the numbers in Bihar in November 2005. The change is here for the whole nation too see."   In keeping with his yatra's objectives, Advani then gunned for the Manmohan Singh regime, talking of many of its "ministers landing in jails for involvement in scandal cases".   More than the attack on UPA II, it was Advani's praise for Nitish that drew applause from the crowds in Sitabdiara and Chhapra. Sensing the people's mood, Advani piled on the praise and took potshots at Lalu Prasad without naming him.   "See how times have changed in 20 years. A chief minister had arrested me during my first rath yatra in Bihar. Now the state has a chief minister who is flagging off my yatra. What a change!"   Advani also sounded more eloquent than Jaitley or Sushma, both of who kept mum at Sitabdiara but addressed a huge crowd in Chhapra. Jaitley was at his fiery best, reeling off details and figures of the 2G scam and other scandals. Sushma kept it lighter, peppering her speech with Urdu couplets. But Advani scored over his colleagues by recounting anecdotes of his six earlier yatras.   Advani's wife Kamala and daughter Pratibha were with him in the rath. An aide said he lived a "strictly disciplined" life and his family was always there to take care of him.   "He eats a small amount of porridge or a sandwich for breakfast. He eats two small rotis, dal and boiled vegetables for lunch. Two hours before lunch, he has a glass of fruit juice or almond-mixed milk," the aide said. "For dinner too, he eats two rotis, dal and boiled vegetables. He is a strict vegetarian."   A lover of books and cinema, Advani is believed to have stocked his rath with CDs, DVDs and books "under the supervision" of Pratibha. Kamala is known to personally serve him food on such yatras   Advani gets another 'rath' from Karnataka Press Trust Of India Patna, October 12, 2011   BJP leader L K Advani's has got a new "rath" for himself from Karnataka after the first one developed a technical problem soon after the start of the yatra. His party colleagues Sushma Swaraj and Arun Jaitley were taken ill yesterday while travelling in the modified bus due to the problem in the generator.   They had to be given medical aid after they complained of nausea and alighted from the vehicle midway on the Mahatma Gandhi setu here while coming from Chapra. Convenor of the yatra Ananth Kumar told reporters at Patna today that the generator in the vehicle leaked carbon monoxide into the rear of the rath even as the exhaust duct did not function properly.   The problem was attended to in Patna and things have been set right for onward journey, he said. Advani, meanwhile, has got another rath from Karnataka but is sticking to the first one which has been repaired. The BJP leader again had some anxious moments when the "rath" got stuck under a railway bridge at Koyalbar near Patna. The rath driver did some deft manoeuvring to steer the 13.9 feet rath under the 13-feet high bridge.   The yatra got stalled for about 10 minutes and Advani was seen complimenting the driver after the rath moved forward. Earlier in Patna, Advani also paid floral tributes at the statue of Ram Manohar Lohia, whose death anniversary will be observed tomorrow.
