Pretenders all!  

This refers to the report "UNPA, Left leaders court arrest over inflation". The trouble is that there is a surfeit of pretenders and acute shortage of sincere leaders both in the government and in the opposition.

Neither has the welfare of the masses on their mind.

Why resort to gimmicks like issuing threats to the governments, staging strikes and chakkajams, burning effigies and calling names on the price rise issue?

Instead, why not lead the raids on the go downs where the traders have hoarded the essential commodities?

And, why not keep some men on the PDS shops to ensure that unscrupulous traders do not divert the government supplies to the blackmarket? Positive action will go a long way in bringing the prices down. The opposition can claim the credit for this. This is a better way of exposing government's weaknesses and helping the poor people. Instead, the opposition has taken the easy way out. No one moves beyond the dharnas and the vacuous slogan shouting. Who doesn't know that the between themselves the Netas both in the government and in the opposition, the babus, the hoarders, the adultraters, the blackmarketeers, and the PDS shop owners are jointly responsible for the present inflationary spiral? Some have directly contributed to it and some indirectly. They refuse to listen and continue to confuse the people. Unite to put them on the mat.
