IF I WERE RAHUL GANDHI

Bikash Choudhury

 1. Education would have been one of the main thrust areas for me and my team in the Congress Party and Union Government. I would have persuaded the Union Govt., all State Govt., Opposition Parties, Corporate sector and NGO movement to fine tune a multiprong ‘strategy’ to bring our Education system to Global standards both in Primary & secondary and in Higher Education(convert HE into money spinner in South Asia). 

2. Infrastructure sector holds the key to runaway growth; and, therefore, I would have taken initiative to persuade our IIT system to develop superior technology in Rail, Road and Aviation sector to cut cost improve quality and impress upon the High Net worth Individuals to contribute generously for this cause. 

3. Gandhi’s vision and another Gandhi’s mission would have been the starting point for me personally. Mahatma Gandhi emphasized on ‘Swarajya’-Economically self sufficient and Independent Villages while Rajiv Gandhi stressed on ‘Surajya’-- politically empowered Villages. I would have persuaded all Member of Parliament and Legislative Assemblies to sponsor and manage a ‘Village Cluster’ by applying the concept of “micro management of macro economy” of the territory and people in the cluster.

4. Energy remains another weak link in our country’s development. I would have persuaded all Govt. and Industry association to bring efficiency in consumption and production and for development of new technology in Non Renewable Energy through appropriate funding of leading technology and educational institutions in the country.

5. Women constitutes half the brain trust of India and no country could progress fast enough without their contribution as we see with Asian tigers. Therefore, I would have started a campaign inside the party and outside to give women their due share in Politics, Economics and in Governance at all levels (local, regional and national).

6. Language prevails across the borders as we see and feel with English language. India is and would remain a source of rich repertoire of varied local languages and mother of all languages “Sanskrit” which has been neglected by successive Govt. and society at large. I would have mobilized my young brigade in the party and outside to impress upon State Governments to offer the facility of a ‘Language Lab’ in each educational institutions to learn various Indian languages including Sanskrit, Hindi and Urdu. That would promote National Integration apart from developing a rich and flourishing language economy in the country through Publication & Translation Industry.

7. Culture is what differentiates India from other Nations. I would have mobilized all resources in my command to consolidate and export our culture abroad to make this World little safer and happier.
