Chikkamagalur: Poor Congressmen ! They are ruling since 6 decades with a heritage of thousands of years in history of mining wealth, plenty of rivers, and large holdings of land. They are sacrificing for the country whatever they had or earned and created a democracy, with a constitution in written form only to serve common people never demanding too much for themselves.
Kings were replaced by elected representatives of people. The Congress Party was divided and sub-divided like a Hindu joint family flung in all corners of the land in 30 states, and 7 centrally administered areas (like Daman-Di4 or Delhi).
There 11 five plans for development of agriculture, industries, Communication, and highways. There were also 20-point 5-point no point plans (as in spectrum sales of Antrix and 2G).
Corruption came from back doors, when no one was looking around. Black money deposit grew abroad. Illegal wealth and brides were given to temples, Dargahs, and cathedrals by devotes who made extra money and material resources.
Then, law came to control such Unorganised hidden wealth. Every MLA/MP and the aspirants of power were asked to declare their family wealth cash or in Kind.
Congress Candidate in a Udupi by poll due this March 18, has put his economic figures, declared before M.T. Reju, the returning (DC) officer who checks documents of every candidate.
Jaipraksh Hegde of Brahmavar near Udupi, has debts worth Rs1.20 crores what poverty, close to insolvency but Hegde has assets worth Rs. 2.90 crores. His wife Shobha Hegde has 31.60 lakhs rupees in assets and her liabilities are three times high at Rs.90 53 lakh !
There are croreathis sitting in Lok Sabha from Karnataka as MPs but Jai is not one of them you know why.
