A DESPERATE SALES PERSON DOES NOT GET A SALE
Bikash Choudhury
Leader of JP movement Sharad Yadav said “NDA would scrap the notification on FDI in Retail”, if voted back to power after general election in 2014.This is a clear sign of desperation for power. And, NDA for once shows a lack of confidence in its positive agenda and therefore, flogs the FDI in retail again and again, even after a full debate and approval in the Parliament under rules 184 and 167.This is entirely a negative agenda of the opposition; which could prove very expensive at the hosting scheduled in eighteen months. Those who listened to the opposition in Parliament on FDI Retail debate came back fully convinced that theirs was a Political agenda and not Economic; when, country is fighting precariously against economic slowdown, high inflation, bloating fiscal deficits and high interest regime which is adding its own pressure on Industrial growth and thus investment; Govt. of the day, may be rightly responsible for the mess partially and balance could be due to depressing Global financial environment. This were not the time for adding cost to a progressive decision like FDI in Retail by calling Nation wide Hartal and paralyzing Parliament; in a casual estimate losses would be in the order of Rs.10,000 Crore. Opposition should rather be on guard; as people could see thru their hypocrisy and call off their bluff while voting next time and deciding not to consider them for the role of Opposition in Parliament. Indian people now enjoying the benefits of mobile phones, computer and internet; they are now connected to the world like never before; booking a rail or air ticket from a rural hamlet in emergency is possible. So, now they are equipped to decide for themselves which policy of Govt. on their side and which Political party could offer stable and good governance in spite of challenges. If Govt. of last 65 yrs to be faulted for what has not happened till date; then, one should held the Opposition also accountable for last so many years for not being able to raise issues like atrocities on women, water pollution, homeless people on the streets of the cities, apathetic condition of sanitation in the country and many other such issues which are fundamental to our growth but does not hold a vote bank to be converted at the time of election and therefore, opposition hardly raise such issues in the Parliament. If capturing the Political power is the whole and sole motive of the current opposition; then, they would rather be very disappointed as “a desperate sales person does not get a sale, while a confident one really does” as per the immutable laws of marketing.
