Hungry and Developing




hi everybody, looks like our government is really up to something now regarding terror, new agencies, regulations, which i doubt Will last for very long, and some many hot talks. But just on the other side everybody is just about forgetting the condition of the economy, did u just notice that this year end no body is talking anything the GDP growth unlike other years and no ads in media about the achievements of the government. And how would they, because a new report which was also on TV says that 42 - 45% of children below the age of 5 are suffering from hunger, 70% of children below 7 years of age are malnourished, doesn't this statistics suddenly bring up Africa in our minds, what is wrong with the planners of India? On one hand we have landed on the moon and on the other our next generation is hungry, what kind of citizens are we going to make out of them and what will be the future of this country? Was is really necessary to spend the millions on the moon mission when so many of our children are hungry or the country is held hostage by the terrorists? There would have been so many novel ways to spend that money and who would answer the tax payers for this, which i would say, a big misinvestment out of which we are going to get data's which will be neither relevant to the hungry, malnourished and homeless children or to fight terrorists. Our country had made progress in leaps and bounds in the last 60 years but there is a huge gap, which is widening day by day, between those who became part and benefactors of the progress and those who didn't even see a flicker of the progress which is happening. Well leaders will say that it is not possible to do everything for everyone at the same time, but did anybody hear of something called 'BALANCE' which can be utilized to keep things going and make everybody benefactors. Think about it.
