One Year of NREG Act: Exposing the Leftists' " Pro-People" Rhetoric vs Ground Reality! .

UP A's own Report Card has found the REO COMRADES as the worst performer!! .

.

Friends, 6/10/2006 .

In our campus the Communists of all hues-SFI-PSU-AISA-DSU-AISF-DSO etc. (now like to call themselves as the LEFTists but give Red Salute with RIGHT hand clenched fist!!) are ultra-vocal shouting "Employment to All" and project themselves through their well-oiled propaganda and dogma indoctrinated cadres as the ultimate saviour of the poor and the economically downtrodden class and caste. Their opium concocted shrill voice and usual rhetoric apart, Govt of India's own report card ,has itself distinguished their ideological nakedness vs. their performance in their own ruling States. Considering that the handful of Marxists have already lost theJr ideological battle tor an "ideology that wants to bnng the ent1re world under the1r authontanan control but. I(Omcally, now in lndta kept themselves to m 1t's two corners VIZ West Bengal and Kerala Both these States have lost the1r earl1er glory and resilience, where the rule by the real Proletarians has been replaced w1th the rule by the Potitbureau!! .

The Leftists, especially the SFI 1n our campus claimed that the enactment of National Rural Employment Guarantee (NREG) Act as a ugreat achievement" of the1r parent party CPI (M) supported UPA Govt as usually taking the credits for so called good things to 1tself and g1vmg failures to rts own supported Govt and thereby ra1smg the1r "intellectual hypocrisy'' to new herghts!! Comrades like their favourite Mata Sonia like to ENJOY POWER without RESPONSIBILITY --taking credit to themselves and putting all the blames to poor MANmohanll But they tail to explain us why the Leftist ruled Kerala has been found as the worst performer in 1mplementmg of the scheme which both SF/ and CPM never tired of listing as thelf ·b1ggest achievement'' for the1r so-called struggle for the poor. KERALA is among the worst performing States as far as the Act's implementation goes, but nevertheless thereby we claim that the BJP ruled States are the top rated performer but ofcourse, better than the Marxists ruled ones. Here, we have tried to give a factual account regarding the NREG Implementation Report Card of the Mmrstry of Rural Affa1rs, Govt .
