SUCCESS

The last mail was submitted to Her Excellency the President of India on 24 May 2010. A meeting of the Union Cabinet ensued on the next day.

The Prime Minister of India, before receipt of the above mail, informed that the Union Cabinet had been meeting every week. The media had been suppressing this fact.

He answered many questions detailed to the press persons.

To one question he said that he welcomed freedom of expression!

To another question he said that the son of the Congress president would be an appropriate addition to the Union Cabinet.

To yet another question he said that the task given to him had been remaining unfinished.

If this work forced the Prime Minister to take over the natural assets, he would say that he achieved his goal. In contrast, if he succeeded in transmitting $1 trillion more to his supporters in the next four years, he would attribute it to his New Economic Policy.

The Union Minister for Communication said that he was being targeted because he succeeded in breaking the telecom cartel. He added that any probe must go into the root cause. But the militant people in Delhi would be hesitant about opening this matter.

The Defense Minister said that he was not against the act of debating various issues. This is his reply to the last mail.

The Home Minister invited the militant people for talks.

In this connection, it must be noted that there are many former Chief Ministers in the Union Cabinet. They should have at least- consistent with the letter No.1 dated 1-6-2001- split the telephone services and given it to the States. This would have put an end to militancy in many parts of India. Now, anyone going through this work would tell that they silently kill their own people for money.

According to some reports, preparations are going on to merge the private sector Bank of Rajastan with the ICICI bank.

The Government says that the ICICI bank is a foreign bank. Therefore, the Government must merge it with a Public Sector Bank.

The Prime Minister of India on 26 May 2010 met the representatives of the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII). He might have discussed the 7 May 2010 Supreme Court judgment and his political constraints.

The Prime Minister of India on 27 May 2010 exhorted the big industrialists to help the Small and Medium Scale Enterprises.

The present writer - in the last mail – requested the Government to save the cottage industries. The Prime Minister is saying the same thing.

In this connection, it must be noted that when a small industry perishes, the entrepreneur becomes a pauper. He becomes speechless with despair. The people now hear the low moan of the tyre industries because the Government has started rescuing India from China. Now, the Government must cancel the marketing rights, if any, granted to the friends and relatives of the Union Minister for Finance to sell Chinese products. Simultaneously, financial assistance must be given to revive the sick industries.

Her Excellency the President of India paid a visit to China on 26 May 2010. The President discussed all vital issues with the top leaders of China. The discussion lasted for two days.

India mentioned the decision of China to build two nuclear reactors in Pakistan. Apparently, China said that the reactors were subjected to international safeguards.

Chinese leaders mentioned the ban on Chinese products. The Indian delegation politely pointed out the huge trade imbalance - $16 billion during 2008 – of India with China. It cited the policy of China to flood Indian markets with Chinese products and the act of buying raw materials like iron ore only from India. The President requested China to give market access to Indian Information Technology, engineering and pharmaceutical companies to address this problem.

India further wanted the help of China to secure United Nation’s Security Council (UNSC) seat.

The President of India impressed upon the leaders that understanding the sensitivities of two countries was the key to deeper and sturdier friendship.

China said that negative reporting by the media could damage Indo-China ties.

The discussions were fully consistent with the last few letters of this writer. The influence of the back room players was conspicuously absent. The Government had not placed any constraint over the President and for this act the Union Cabinet must be commended. Apparently, the Congress president is also striving to rise to a higher level.

China would supply even uranium to India. But, an India that does not depend upon China for anything other than mutually beneficial activities is very important for world peace.

China, as usual, pointed out the activities of Tibetan leaders in India. India must appreciate this.

India is not disclosing the name of the present writer to the people. But, India never fails to report the activities of the Tibetan leaders. India must tell in which way the Tibetan leaders are dearer to it than the present writer.

Finally, the Chinese leaders told the President that they were ready for a new starting point. China started penetrating into India from 1988, exploiting the visit of the then Prime Minister of India. Therefore, the starting point shall be the year 1988. China must retreat from the sphere of influence of India and take up the pre-1988 position. This is for true friendship.

Evidently, the last few letters saved India from an impending disaster. Naturally, India would no longer remain as a vassal of China. The only condition is that the future rulers should not become the slaves of the manipulators again.

The Indian delegation pursued the talks with great diligence. However, it must be stated that the President has some very specific natural gifts to handle very delicate diplomacies. The President has a thirst for the good. She utilized all her talents to achieve a significant success for Indian diplomacy. In fact, the officials would not have seen more successful diplomatic engagements in a trying situation. The President might have experienced glimpses of transcendental happiness in this matter. She could talk about this throughout her life. There is no FREEDOM to the people to know even this is a different matter.

On 27 May 2010 some reports said that that the USA had elevated the level of dialogue with India, recognizing India as a great and emerging global power.

Air India (AI) on 27 May 2010 dismissed 58 employees. The employees immediately gave a notice to go on strike from 12 June 2010. The Union Government decided not to interfere with the decision of the management of the AI.

Now, there are three following options before the president of the Congress Party.

1. The AI could be asked to dismiss any number of employees for their offences.

2. The AI could be asked to reinstate all employees and settle the matter through talks.

3. Ignoring the matter.

The management could be correct. Or the employees could be correct. The people are not interested in knowing this. They expect the Government to run the AI successfully. They would welcome any one of the above options provided the strike is averted. This is the cardinal rule of business management.

In order to consider the second option, the Congress leader would have to change the Prime Minister. One or two leaders would oppose it.

However, the Prime Minister is not implementing the 7 May 2010 judgment of the Supreme Court. As a result, India is incurring a loss of over $220 billion per year. He is not taking over the privatized Public Sector Undertakings (PSUs) including the airports. He is not giving FREEDOM. Considering everything, he could be substituted by another suitable person.

148 people died in a train accident. This might have been due to the sabotage of the militant people.

The Congress president shall not wait for another accident like this. She must concede the demands that are consistent with the Supreme Court order.

The Director of the Central Bureau of Investigation ( CBI) said that the cases involving the political leaders were being monitored by the High Courts and the Supreme Court. The Tamil TV channels alone telecast it. He had been concealing this matter. His present statement shows that the Supreme Court directed him to dilute the recent $400 million plus 1500kg gold case to $ 4.4 million case. He must narrate the circumstances that led to the dilution of the case.

The Supreme Court on 29 May 2010 permitted the Utter Pradesh (UP) State to take necessary steps to privatize 11 sugar mills subject to the final verdict of the court. This order is against the spirit of its 7 May 2010 judgment.

The Supreme Court should have directed the Union Government to take over all natural assets. This would have yielded $ 220 billion per year. Then no State Government would have thought of selling any PSUs.

However, the learned judges of the Supreme Court must fight - in fact wage a war - to implement its orders, suggestions and even thoughts. For this they must be like warriors, brave and without consideration for the feelings of others. Then, the probability of achieving success will be great.

The Chief Justice of India is not opening his eyes to enforce the fundamental rights of the people. He must note that the coverage given to an individual by the media – particularly public sector TV channels– must be proportional to his contribution to nation building. No one, including cricket commentators, with lesser contribution to the nation shall get greater coverage than this writer. Therefore, the Chief Justice of India must - even in his sleep - strive to weigh an individual and a minister without any partiality. Then only he could think of achieving success in the act of enforcing FREEDOM of expression.

It is said that a man striving by appropriate means is assured of success.

The facts from 24 May 2010 to 30 May 2010 are being submitted to Her Excellency the President of India on 31 May 2010.
