Powerless..

Tamil Nadu is trying to project itself as one of the most powerful states in the country in various fields like politics, automobile production, I.T and telecommunication. It proved it's worth as a good base for several I.T firms and succeeded in its attempt to become an industrially well-established part of the country. Without the political parties that are present in the state, the Congress would have lost its place in the Parliament and by this time, Congress would have become even more useless than what it is now. Tamil Nadu is literally putting up a puppet show, with the state being the puppet master and the Government at the center being the dumb puppet. So, Tamil Nadu is indeed one of the most powerful and happening state in India. But, the other face of Tamil Nadu is totally powerless. This is the part of Tamil Nadu that confronts with the frequent power cuts in the state which may last from 1 and a half hours to as much as 5 hours in some places outside the state capital, Chennai. This aspect of the state makes it one of the powerless states in the country. When no other state in the country came forward with such an absurd idea to conserve power, Tamil Nadu politicians popped up with this plan to turn off the power all over the state at different times. I personally suffered a loss because of these power cuts by losing the stabilizer which by itself was not stable enough to support the operation of our refrigerator. Recently, I upgraded my PC and during the process, I brought home a new UPS. Power fluctuations joined hands with power cuts and now my UPS is almost dead. If the H'ble Minister of Health and Electricity, Mr.Arcot N Veeraasamy gets a chance to read this particular post of mine, I would put forth this question for him : "Do you really know what electricity means to the people of Tamil Nadu and are you sure you and your political friends face the problems posed by these power cuts designed by you?" Instead of indulging in such a pointless act, Tamil Nadu Government can start revising the plan by putting a halt to the free electricity plan for villages, though this may sound quite harsh, and provide electricity at a price lower than what the usual unit slab costs. People of this nation can get themselves out of such pathetic conditions either by making really able ones form the Governments at the Center and in the states or by overthrowing the present politicians who look dumb and senseless and are not even closer to the genuine efficiency of a really good politician, which India has never produced in its history.
