Because of yesterday band we are one day behind now

Unmistakably, the Bandh incident yesterday caused us to be one day behind from all other countries around the world.  Obviously, we were somehow in frozen state for one whole day as what the protesters aimed in the first place. While all the rest of the world moved forward for progress and other developmental transactions, we simply stool still watching them pass us by.  Indeed, no matter what reason or reasons these opposition protesters may have in mind for mounting such protest, it did not do good in any way to all the Indian people and to our economy in particular. When this incident happens again , we will surely be logged far, far behind from all the rest of the world, and this can be summed up in one line: “it’s a shame!”

Yesterday’s unexpected protest from the opposition of the fuel price caused a lot of turmoil and inconvenience not only to various people in the entire India but more specifically to our economy as a whole.  This untoward incident should never become a regular means to call the attention of our government in regulating the prices of fuel.  After all, there are other ways and means that can be done to resolve this economic and other social issues in our society.  As CNBC-TV18 graphically reported yesterday, there were a number of violence related cases all throughout India which in one way or the other put our government and its officials into a bad light in the economic world arena.  One good news however, the bandh yesterday was generally peaceful and controllable.

According to CII or the Confederation of Indian Industry, the bandh has caused a negative impact on business and trade in most part of our country. CII said that, an estimate Rs 3,000 crore was lost to the Indian economy because of the sudden whole day shutdown of so many businesses as part of supporting the call from the opposition parties in view of the hike in fuel increase.  CII also believed that this kind of calling the attention of our government first and foremost affects the ordinary daily wage earners who depend solely in small to medium trading and industry.  Even the transport sector which paralyzed a lot of transactions and business operations should also be answerable to this damage and great loss in our economy in general and to the whole Indian citizenry in particular.  For instance, according to non-congress ruled states, Kerala and West Bengal suffered the most in terms of the transportation cancellation yesterday.  The worst however was that of Maharashtra since all of its air, train and road transportation services got hit badly,  Finally, equally hit state was that of Mumbai due to its more or less 86 flights which were canceled too.

In conclusion, we should lay all our cards on the table before making a sudden and uncalled for protest.  This way, we will avoid economic loss and monetary downfall.  We should always think hard before acting such ineffective protests and come up with solutions which are more professional and practical.  This would make us a laughing stock of the world, a loser economy and a miserable, almost hopeless form of government system.  It’s not yet too late to change and reform our ways of actions.  Ask yourself deeply.  The answer is within yourself, only if you really care for your own country.
