Government`s actual reasons for the petrol hike





Amidst the hue and cry the people of India are making about the rising prices of the petroleum products, the general public seems to have forgotten the real motive behind these moves. For the first time unraveling the real motives of the Government behind this unjustified and continuous step, we have come to the conclusion that a hidden reason is behind this case, a controversy that lies deep which will be uncovered today.

Bringing to you the :
              Government’s 3 reasons for the increasing petroleum prices”

First: Mr. Ghulam Nabi Azad our Union Minister for Health has been commenting regularly on the degrading level of health and alarming levels of obesity being observed in the youth of today. Time and again serious warning have been issued on behalf of the Ministry of Health against the risks involved in driving automobiles and motorcycle which indirectly lead to lesser physical activity and thus subsequently rising cholesterol levels. Thus in an unobtrusive way , the government has come up with a noble solution to this problem which will ultimately lead to more people leaving their cars , using more of bicycles for their conveyance and thus leading to a healthier lifestyle.

Second: World over discussions and debates are being conducted to come up with solutions to the problem caused by pollution. Dedicated advanced researches are being carried out in many countries to come up with more fuel efficient cars, petroleum products with lower carbon residue and to find new and innovative alternative fuel for automobile. But India is emerging as a clear winner in these ongoing battles of the governments around the world. What the other missed to see, India has gone down to the basic of this problem. Indian Government’s stand is indeed an elegantly simple one: Higher Price of Petrol leads to Lesser Cars being used and thus lesser pollution being created. Other countries are so impressed with this model that they are planning to send representatives from their countries to study this on going model.

Third: This last decade has been marked with a sudden increase in the crimes and autocracies being committed against women. The number of chain snatching incidents in and around the capital has been particularly alarming. Also there have been various cases being reported in which the confines of the cars are being repeatedly used against the women such as the cases in which taxis and office cabs are regularly becoming potentially dangerous for the working women and the interiors of the automobiles which are often used by the gangs as a hiding place for the kidnapped. As reported in the various cases, the car has started to become a common accomplice with those who are committing the crime. Seeing as these incidents are occurring frequently, the government in collaboration with the civil authorities of the various states has came up again with a unique solution to this old problem. Seeing the only solution to this ever growing problem is to stop the use of cars, the automobile manufacturers have shown a certain reluctance to reduce the number of cars being produced in their workshops, the government again went to the root cause. A local mafia when contacted has been complaining that this new policy of the government has directly affected his business and is looking for newer and cheaper means of transport to get his desired results.  And thus the government has been smiling ear to ear seeing that its policy is going to fetch the desired result.

There you stand




There you are, there you stand,
With your money and glory
With glitz of gold and galleons overflowing.

And there you stand, knee deep in mud
With cloths tattered and pockets draining
And still the nobles say life is tough,
And you there in dirt, snorting indifferently.

There you move, there you sit
In those swift cars and trolleys
Which move sometimes on ground, sometimes on the bodies of deprived follies.

There you sit on that barren land,
Amongst animal waste and your own betel leaf debris
And still others get affected by the storm and the rain
And cry about the heat which makes their cosmetics ineffective

There you talk, your wisdom talks
This boasts of intellectual rubbish
Which shelters murderers and molesters?
And you ask for the rights of those rapists

And there you talk, your petty talks
Where you fight for a penny more
Whereas your brothers are being slaughtered either by the government bullets,
Or being used as a shelter for the blades of the Maoist

There you eat, feed your plump skin
On a foam couch, with plumper overalls
Amidst wine tasting, you discuss how food security can be solved,

There you eat, search for food
Either in rubbish heaps
Or searching in the eyes of those aristocrats,
Where sadly the solution for food security can never be met
