Re: [HumJanenge] We are Doomed with Selfish and Shameless Political Decision Making - Air India

Dear Friends,

 

The case of AIR INDIA is a clear example of WHY the 'politician' & 'babu' would not like it to be disbanded.

 

Except for a very few private airlines, other just do not bother for both these categories. Can you imagine INDIA without this carrier- who will provide free seats to politicians / babus and their families? This is like 'PASSES' in case of RAILWAYS. Everyone and anyone is enjoying the free LOOT.

 

This is the reasons, why NOT a single politician has raised the voice of 'disbanding' the Maharaja.

 

It is high time, some well informed people take up with the SC to direct Govt to wind up the set up.

 

It is same Govt which is dragging feet, going to SCourt against its  orders for paying 'rank pay' arrears to SOLDIERS and ONE RANK ONE PENSION - which as per their own estimates will cost only 1300 crores as against 100,000 crores dumped on theis carrier.

Dear Friends,

We are the only country in the world which has a national carrier fully owned and operated by the government. Air India has already bled us, the citizens of 100,000 Cr tax payer money and our BPL figure is 32/-. Is any one answerable ? Does any one ask also about why selfish and shameless political decision continues for Air India ? All politicians have sealed their lips. 

Look at the Army. One case of disobedience of orders and in less than 24 hours, decision is taken to sack the commanding officer and disband the unit. Kudos to the Army for living up to its highest standard of discipline.

 Air India has eaten away 100,000 Cr of citizens money and Parliament has all the time to waste on frivolous discussion on democracy of 60 years. If Minister of Civil Aviation has any self respect, he would have forced the PM to call for an emergency meeting and proposed the sell off of Air India. If PM has any self respect, he would call for a cabinet meeting to prepare a resolution and then discuss it in Parliament, get the approval and have it endorsed by the President. All this in 48 hours. Above all, what is Mme Sonia Gandhi doing as UPA II Chairperson ?

Brilliant RTI minds and excellent lawyers in the esteemed HJ group, request save the nation through what ever is possible, RTIs/PILs/court case etc etc. I have no idea. May God save us.

Jai Hind.
