    Sukhbir Asks People To Give Final Push To Upa To Oblivion By : INVC Team Published On : 17 Jul, 2013 09:08 PM IST INVC, Ludhiana, SAD President Mr. Sukhbir Singh Badal today blew the election vigil for ensuing Lok Sabha elections by giving a call to electorate to push corrupt and inefficient Congress led UPA Government in the pages of history as it has looted the treasury of the country for last 65 years. Sukhbir Badal accompanied by YAD President Bikram Singh Majithia, Former Minister Hira Singh Gabria, who was in the city virtually electrified the election scene by inducting the top leadership of Ludhiana District Congress , PPP and four Independent councilors in SAD fold leaving opposition parties in shock and disbelief. The speech of Sukhbir was so motivating for the Akali cadre that his speech was disrupted many times by the chants of Sukhbir Badal Zindabad. Asking the electorates to distinguish between development and destruction, Mr. Badal said that 65 years rule of Congress Party was marred by series of scams, price rise increasing poverty, unemployment whereas S. Parkash Singh Badal led SAD-BJP Government had been coming out with pro-people, pro-poor, pro-farmers policies. He said that Congress always practiced British polices of Divide and Rule, dividing the people on castes and religion lines whereas our Government has always moved with cohesive policies focused on development of all sections of society. Promising to develop Ludhiana as world class city, Mr. Badal questioned the sincerity of local Congress MP, who could not pressurize Union Railway Ministry to complete Railway portion of Lakkar Pul.

  • Collected Works of Mahatma Gandhi, Volume 98
    1. GIVE AND TAKE1 A Sindhi sufferer writes: At this critical time when thousands of our countrymen are leaving their ancestral homes and are pouring in from Sind, the Punjab and the N. W. F. P., I find that there is, in some sections of the Hindus, a provincial spirit. Those who are coming here suffered terribly and deserve all the warmth that the Hindus of the Indian Union can reasonably give. You have rightly called them dukhi,2 though they are commonly called sharanarthis. The problem is so great that no government can cope with it unless the people back the efforts with all their might. I am sorry to confess that some of the landlords have increased the rents of houses enormously and some are demanding pagri. May I request you to raise your voice against the provincial spirit and the pagri system specially at this time of terrible suffering? Though I sympathize with the writer, I cannot endorse his analysis. Nevertheless I am able to testify that there are rapacious landlords who are not ashamed to fatten themselves at the expense of the sufferers. But I know personally that there are others who, though they may not be able or willing to go as far as the writer or I may wish, do put themselves to inconvenience in order to lessen the suffering of the victims. The best way to lighten the burden is for the sufferers to learn how to profit by this unexpected blow. They should learn the art of humility which demands a rigorous self-searching rather than a search of others and consequent criticism, often harsh, oftener undeserved and only sometimes deserved.
