                                                                                            WILL   MODI GOVERNMENT'S  BUDGET END UP AS MERE  PRICE  PUSHING  EXERCISE ?

 

Mr. Narendra  Modi has cautioned that  the country will have to face  tough measures  that would be initiated by  his  government  in the coming days to ensure economic growth. He has virtually said that hard times are ahead for the citizens.  The common men wonder as to what can be the more hard time than the present one.

Following Mr.  Modi's  observation, now rumours are afloat that railway fare would be increased and price of diesel , petrol and other fuel  would go up. These are precisely the  practices that have been taking place in India during the previous UPA governance and how will Mr. Modi's government be different from this ?

There is parallel economy in the country today with several crores of rupees of black money in circulation .  A competent government with a determined outlook and programme should certainly be able to bring out the black money , that will have  far reaching and positive implications on the  health of the national economy. This would inevitably result in increased income for the government and make it unnecessary to increase taxes and fares further. It would also bring down the price of real estates and essential commodities, with dramatic effect on the national psyche.

What is really necessary  is for the government to drastically cut down its wasteful expenditures, improve efficiency and productivity in all possible ways and give up the counter productive  schemes to the extent possible  that amount to extending  freebies .

People have appreciated Mr. Narendra Modi's stress on providing huge opportunities  to the people for skill acquisition and creating employment prospects at the small and medium scale level in a big way. The investment are needed for this task and there is enough money in the country in private hands to make such investments , which can be supplemented by investments from overseas  sources  too.

Let not Narendra Modi's government move in the beaten track ., which would make Modi's  government no different from others  and will leave the common men extremely disappointed and frustrated.
