DON’T REPEAT THE SAME MISTAKE- Dear CM

It is ironical that after every election, the B lobby propagates that the party has come to power from the B votes and this is happening all over again, with the B lobby calling the shots once again in the present regime of Samajwadi Party. One thing CM has to keep in mind is to not to repeat the mistake done by BSP regime of patronizing the B lobby at the expense of the other caste groups.

It is quite fashionable in the media to project that CASTE does not hold any factor in the elections which is far from truth. In fact one of the main reasons for defeat of the Congress in UP was the absence of caste factor in their campaigning and distribution of seats. 

The danger bells have started ringing for the CM as both the workers and the Bureaucracy have started getting disillusioned within days of the formation of the government.  The bureaucratic perception of the ‘Pancham Tal’ in this regime is that it is one of the worst  in the history of Uttar Pradesh in the recent past but to be fair to them it is too early to judge that and they deserve some time to set things straight. With no transfers in the districts the workers are getting jittery and the maneuvering of the old faces of the old BSP regime has started.  Insiders tell that the common perception that the lady in the Pancham Tal is calling the shots is flawed and the choice is made by the B lobby which is the same which was very active in the BSP regime. What the truth is hard to tell ………………………………. As these are the whispers in the corridors of power.

The Beyond Five Plan – Part 1

The number Five has a great significance in the polito administration in India with plans being made for the five years , the tenure of the government is five years and so on. This number has a greater significance in Uttar Pradesh because the location of the Chief Minister Office is in the 5^th floor of the secretariat building which is called “Pancham Tal “ in Hindi.

If you analyze the tenure and working of the last 5 governments in Uttar Pradesh, no government was voted again for the second tenure by the government despite the fact that the so called Chief Ministers officers of each regime were vouching for absolute majority in the coming elections whether it was Rajnath Singh, Mayawati or Mulayam.

The real reason is that no government in the past had a plan which extended beyond five years so that they can be reelected and the main reason for this is the selfish interests of the All India officers like IAS,  IPS who just work for their interests rather than for the well-being of the state and the people. Governments after governments make the same mistake of relying on these all India bureaucrats who function is such a way that the ruling party is wiped out in the coming elections with these Bureaucrats packing their bags for a central government stint.

What is unfortunate is that these political parties don’t learn their lessons and after coming to power post the same bureaucrats that led to their downfall and the vicious circle starts all over again. The lesson that Akhilesh has to learn is that he first of all has to have a “Beyond Five Plan” i.e he has to govern and plan so that he again comes to power in next assembly elections in 2017.

The media loves to highlight the party goondas of Samajwadi Party but what about the IAS/ IPS goondas of the Uttar Pradesh who roam free in the holy land of the Uttar Pradesh. The irony is that only the names of these officers change, the attitude, the working remains the same whether it is Rajnath Singh, Mayawati or Mulayam regime. All journalists are the greatest recipients of the their benevolence so nothing comes in the media and many see these powerful bureaucrats as their ATM’s.

In my personal opinion the seat of power in UP is jinxed both from the attitude and Vastu point of view and any government that wants to return back to power has to make sweeping changes in both governance and vastu domains.
