Congress
national general secretary and MP, Rahul Gandhi has set out
to know the pain of the public and to understand country's
plight in villages. He has been amidst the villagers in Madhya
Pradesh for last several days. He takes night halt at any
poor man's residence in villages and days are spent treading
the paths of villages. Rahul wants to have a closer watch
of India and its public and is trying to understand. He meets
poor people with sympathy and asks about the schemes implemented
by the Union government. Union government has implemented
several schemes for the betterment of tribal and poor. Several
programme including National Employment Guarantee Scheme,
Tribal Development Scheme and Sarva Shiksha Mission etc are
being run by Centre so that the poor can take benefit but
it is not happening so. Commitment of providing 100 days employment
was fulfilled under National Employment Guarantee Scheme but
proper implementation could not take place. A tribal complained
to Rahul Gandhi in Khitauli of Katni district as he was not
issued BPL card. Rahul came to know about local civic amenities
related problems of villagers like drinking water and others.
Considering his tour with a view to politics would be giving
less weightage and less important. He is trying to know the
pain of poor and receiving the information of present condition.
Weaknesses and deformities are coming ahead. Poor people expressing
their pain and what extent the government provided facilities
are reaching to them, are being revealed. It is a good sign
that Rahul toured the state and saw the arrangements. Facilities
of government are not reaching to poor and tribals, their
problems are not being solved. It becomes duty of government
that it should reform the weaknesses in implementing schemes.
State government should ensure to provide benefits to the
people. Transparency and honesty should be adopted to implement
these schemes.
