BIMARU State Tag for Madhaya Pradesh

Is M P still a BIMARU state. It is so unfortunate to say yes, I certainly accept that with a heavy heart but this is how MP is generally known. I just do not say this because no city from MP is in the list of being a Metropolitan but I feel that such states are big opportunities for any political party (in power) to earn for their generation. Well even this is not really the case as our politians are so competent that they can make money anywhere although they have been saying that India is a poor country. Can a poor country afford a fraud like 2G spectrum and all other alike swindles? Where does this money go? Probably into personal accounts of politians and their high profile agents.

Today I see the disadvantages of a weak and inactive opposition. Present government has been very providential since the opposition does not raise its voice against significant issues. In 10 years span of previous government, another political party was in power in Center so there was not really a strong support from Center in terms of fund for development plans to be executed. Though available resources were not even used appropriately and conditions worsen. Nevertheless, in present scenario ample funds are released from center for development purposes and are being used in MP however, no credit is given to center for that. For eg Ladli Lakshmi Yojna, JNNURM all these are projects of center. Interestingly it is more amused to see that officials are not able to make use of these funds and that “lapses” every year on account of NOT BEEN USED.

In last 5 years PWD and Municipal Corporation ( Nagar Nigam) had so much funds that MP could have been on the top of hygine/ sanitary segment. Again, there was a failure to use fund. I do not say that nothing has been done, after having so much Bhopal and all other cities of M P could have had all the required flyovers. Every time once in 6 months officials come, do a survey, and do all those exercises although the result is nothing. I really call for a well-organized opposition.

There were so many basis of rejection of previous government, its time to compare all the list with Previous government failures and present government achievements like population, roads, traffic etc. second term of present government is going to complete soon but what is the standing. AIMS is in no good condition, I can not even dream of any IIT park, no fly overs, corrupt and mushrooming education sector, no conversation for small scale industries, and agriculture is still an individual exercise without any sustainable or practical support. With such progress rate BIMARU tag seems to continue for some more in MP.

I am not acting as a critique nor supporting opposition but I am a common person it is my voice, I crave for transparency for the reason that it be previous government or present I am the ultimate sufferer, only victim and always at the receiving end.
