Nothing is achieved by throwing mudslinging words against each other. The new premier of China Xi Jinping has given dictate to reduce the time spent in discussion. The much famous slogan “talk less, work more” India’s emergency era is being implemented in his country. Such leader will bring a sea change to the billion plus country. India however is different. Being a democratic country it cannot take stringent measures as the most populous country in the world is doing. Unfortunately in our country precious time is wasted as opposition parties attempt to scuttle implementation of important schemes being introduced by the Government. FDI in retail sector was put under the scanner for several weeks in the process delaying implementation of the same. What has opposition gained by delaying implementation of FDI in retail? The Union Government had to speak repeatedly the same words to convince the non challant opposition leaders. Even the common men understand importance of foreign investment in retail sector. The leaders could not. Blame game serves no purpose. The opposition leaders were not convinced even when the Prime Minister Dr. Manmohon Singh opened his heart and mind as he addressed the nation on DDK some time back on FDI. He even said FDI will not put burden on the people of the country. Opposition maintained its head strong attitude and demanded discussion on the issue in the Parliament followed by vote. What has happened? Precious time was wasted. The situation now calls for allowing foreign direct investment in retail sector as it will improve financial position of the country. Ignorant people were misled by the opposition parties. The opposition parties did not trust the sincerity of the UPA Government on the issue. They even went to the extent of calling Bharat bandh and Trinamol Congress withdrew support to the UPA Government. Congress party has heaved a sigh of relief as the Parliament has okayed the Government stand on FDI. The Congress party has also gained in severing ties with Trinamol Congress. Mamta’s party was a liability to the smooth sailing of UPA. Now the UPA will be able to sail smoothly. The entire masses are also happy at the thought of seeing multi brand retail outlet being opened in the big cities. So far 58 cities have been identified for running multi brand retail outlet by multinational companies. Unfortunately Imphal will not see such retail outlet as the population in the city does not reach permissible level of 10 lakh plus. The matter having been okayed by the Parliament it is time the Government takes step for speedy implementation of FDI in retail sector. The general masses are desperate to see what comes out after the implementation of FDI. The need of the hour is giving support to the Government to enable it to speed up implementation of various schemes, which may become a reality as FDI will bring lots of money. Future generation will appreciate the UPA II Government for taking bold and gigantic decision. Go ahead, the entire masses are behind you.
