@fayed .. high welcome ..good afternoon..

Yesterday Harshvardhan & BJP was crying in the Media that they were demanding SIT for 1984 riots from last 30 days! BJP was in govt for 5 years in Delhi. What they did for it???

In fact, what they did when they were in power in 1996, they removed names of all the RSS & BJP cadres who were charge-sheeted in 1984 riots cases.

33. AIIMS
34. free and compulsory elementary education for rural children
35. Nationalization of Banks
36. Green Revolution
37. As per economic surveys, when Indira Gandhi became Prime Minister, 65% of the country's population was below the poverty line, and when her regime ended in 1984, this figure was 45%. During her rule, food production increased by 250%.Literacy also increased in India by 30%
38. Modernization of the telecommunication industry
39. Navodaya Vidyalaya System in 1986
40. The first National Education Programme was promulgated in 1968 by the government of Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, and the second by Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi in 1986.
41. Shri Rajiv Gandhi increased government support for science and technology and associated industries, and reduced import quotas, taxes and tariffs on technology-based industries, especially computers, airlines, defence and telecommunications. He introduced measures significantly reducing the License Raj, allowing businesses and individuals to purchase capital, consumer goods and import without bureaucratic restrictions.
42. created MTNL in 1986,
43. public call offices, better known as PCOs, helped spread telephones in rural areas.
44. free market reforms that rescued the almost bankrupt nation from economic collapse.
45. SEBI Act of 1992 and the Security Laws (Amendment) which gave SEBI the legal authority to register and regulate all security market intermediaries.

52. Look East foreign policy
53. A strong earthquake in Latur, Maharashtra, also killed 10,000 people and displaced hundreds of thousands in 1993. Rao was applauded by many for using modern technology and resources to organize major relief operations to assuage the stricken people, and for schemes of economic reconstruction. The prime minister, Narasimha Rao, appointed an Oxford-educated former academic/bureaucrat, Manmohan Singh, as finance minister. Singh had served in all major economic positions in the country, including as governor of India’s central bank, the Reserve Bank of India. As secretary-general of the South Commission, he had also had close interactions with IMF managing director Michel Camdessus. As economic adviser to the previous prime minister, Singh was not new to the impending crisis. To him, making exchange rate adjustments, implementing fiscal reform, and influencing business expectations were the most immediate policy priorities.

6. New IITs and IIMs during UPA 1
22. Kendriya Vidhyalayas
39. Navodaya Vidyalaya System in 1986

Educational institutes, a necessity, and all crap. None of them could get into top50 in the world. Thoroughly beaten by a developing country like China, and many other small nation.

3. Doordarshan
4. AIR

A complete control over media. Mouthpieces of govt.

7. ISRO
8. BARC
9. First Indian cosmonaut Mr Rakesh Sharma
33. AIIMS

Necessary institutes, albeit like other govt institutes are inefficient. Cosmonaut is not Indian, but Russian. An Indian generously taken for a ride by Russians.

10. Pakistan Surrenders to India 1971

I agree here. The Congressis fought bravely. Even the Pakistanis applaud the will and courage that they showed on the border!
(I am a fan of Indira though)

11. Nuclear Deal
28. Nuclear Deal

It was the Congressis that got us isolated in the first place!

12. Computerization by Shri Rajiv Gandhi

Big deal. He just corrected the mistake of his mother to keep the Indians away from a wonderful invention called computer and thus hindering the growth of the nation!

13. Non Aligned Movement by Pt. Jawahr Lal Nehru

Did great wonders for India. Finally his daughter had to correct his mistake by practically taking India into Soviet camp!

14. Bringing back the Gold deposited out of the country

.
???

15. First Nuclear Test during Mrs. Gandhi

Too little too late. Why just a small bomb when China was sitting on a stockpile?

16. DRDO

We all see how that worked out!

17. Economic Reforms by Mr Manmohan Singh

The usual Congressi story of one govt trying to sort out the mess created by its predecessor. The reforms were needed cause all other Congress govts messed up! And reform only started cause they were forced by IMF or some other international body, cause country was almost bankrupt..

18. India is 4th largest GDP

And second most populous country. Almost 10 times more population than the 3rd largest economy. 3 times smaller than the equally populated 2nd biggest economy. Both the second and 3rd biggest economy were in terrible condition after world war 2.

19. 2nd fastest growing economy

A complete lie. India was never 2nd fastest growing economy.

20. MGNREGA

Big deal, remodelling, restructuring of old schemes (including one of NDA) with some additional improvement. Even after 60 years of ruling can't iron out several problems.

21. RTI

As if public protest didn't compelled them to!

23. SAIL
24. BHEL
25. HZL
26. Locomotive factories etc realted to railways
42. created MTNL in 1986,

More govt institutes. More inefficiency, corruption, crap products.

27. Jai Jawan Jai Kisan

If only 'Naare' could feed the hungry....

29. Inclusion of Sikkim in India

Good work by some, including the king of Sikkim

30. Chandrayan

Damn the engineering of Congressis!

31. Bhakra Nangal Dam

Whoa, so Congress govt actually did completed some infra work, as they were expected to do? Amazing...

32. Planning Commision of India and First Five Year plan in 1951 by Pt. Jawahar lal Nehru

We all see how they work out!

34. free and compulsory elementary education for rural children

Again, amazing that rural children would get education despite Congress!

35. Nationalization of Banks

More govt institutes, more.....

36. Green Revolution

So sometimes Congress did the job of improving the lives of country's citizens! I am awed..

37. As per economic surveys, when Indira Gandhi became Prime Minister, 65% of the country's population was below the poverty line, and when her regime ended in 1984, this figure was 45%. During her rule, food production increased by 250%.Literacy also increased in India by 30%

Indira, my favourite, no comments.

38. Modernization of the telecommunication industry

That they themselves forced into stone age, Congress love to get out of the whole that their predecessors fall into!

40. The first National Education Programme was promulgated in 1968 by the government of Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, and the second by Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi in 1986.

It took 20 and 40 years for Congress to do something basic, applaud...

41. Shri Rajiv Gandhi increased government support for science and technology and associated industries, and reduced import quotas, taxes and tariffs on technology-based industries, especially computers, airlines, defence and telecommunications. He introduced measures significantly reducing the License Raj, allowing businesses and individuals to purchase capital, consumer goods and import without bureaucratic restrictions.

Digging the country out of the hole his mother and grandfather threw in, and doing a half assed job at that. Good going..

43. public call offices, better known as PCOs, helped spread telephones in rural areas.

And privatization removed the need of them, enabling the masses have their own phones. Wish previous Congress govts would have allowed the public such basic necessity.

44. free market reforms that rescued the almost bankrupt nation from economic collapse.

Forced by international bodies because Congress govt almost bankrupted the nation with their policies!

45. SEBI Act of 1992 and the Security Laws (Amendment) which gave SEBI the legal authority to register and regulate all security market intermediaries.

Like most other markets, needed watchdog.

46. Opening up in 1992 of India's equity markets to investment by foreign institutional investors and permitting Indian firms to raise capital on international markets by issuing Global Depository Receipts (GDRs)

Because country had a dire need, other option being that of going bankrupt.

47. Starting in 1994 of the National Stock Exchange as a computer-based trading system which served as an instrument to leverage reforms of India's other stock exchanges. The NSE emerged as India's largest exchange by 1996.

Far behind the world, country finally get computerization, somewhere!

48. The impact of these reforms may be gauged from the fact that total foreign investment (including foreign direct investment, portfolio investment, and investment raised on international capital markets) in India grew from a minuscule US $132 million in 1991-92 to $5.3 billion in 1995-96

Reforms needed because previous policies were crap.

49. Rao began industrial policy reforms with the manufacturing sector. He slashed industrial licensing, leaving only 18 industries subject to licensing. Industrial regulation was rationalized.

Digging the country out of hole his predecessors dumped into...

50. it was Rajiv Gandhi who reduced the voting age to 18.

Applaud. Some sense from Congress...

51. It was Rajiv Gandhi who declared Swami Vivekanandas birth anniversary on January 12th as National Youth Day.

Did a great job for developing the country...

52. Look East foreign policy

From look north to look east now. Hope this one works out!

53. A strong earthquake in Latur, Maharashtra, also killed 10,000 people and displaced hundreds of thousands in 1993. Rao was applauded by many for using modern technology and resources to organize major relief operations to assuage the stricken people, and for schemes of economic reconstruction.

aadhar

Right to education and right to food comes into equation because Congress govt failed to provide this basic rights to people in 6 decades.

And about aadhar, you must have heard of social security number? I admit that the aadhar system is good, but a little too late. A relevent system should have been in place decades ago. They just prefer to dig well to quench a fire.

 

[karan21]

People say congress has achieved a lot. Congress has done this and done that. I just wanna ask one question. HAS INDIA ACHIEVED ITS RIGHTFULL POSITION ON THE WORLD STAGE?? OR IS INDIA EVEN MAKING ENOUGH PROGRESS TO REACH THERE?? No I dont think so. India is poor, malnourished and weak nation in my opinion. So 60 years of congress has not brouhgt enough results. We need to work hard and need a more visionary leader.

The prime minister, Narasimha Rao, appointed an Oxford-educated former academic/bureaucrat, Manmohan Singh, as finance minister. Singh had served in all major economic positions in the country, including as governor of India’s central bank, the Reserve Bank of India. As secretary-general of the South Commission, he had also had close interactions with IMF managing director Michel Camdessus. As economic adviser to the previous prime minister, Singh was not new to the impending crisis. To him, making exchange rate adjustments, implementing fiscal reform, and influencing business expectations were the most immediate policy priorities.

To Summarized ,
Congress up till 80s did some good work ,
Policy - Planing , Education , Industry
implementation - tried to do with limited resource .
Indira gandhi, nehru, MK gandhi and many unsung hero's /leaders made us proud..
exception to emergency by indira gandhi..
good intention need very good implementation as it follows interest of the common man/ india

after 80s things change..
except few good of RTI, MNARGA, economic policy (for short term) UPA and congress cant justify corruption, policy paralysis, power arrogance ..
IF BJP is communal based on 1992 and 2000 then congress also is same for 1984 and saha bano case
saha bano case is more critical as i think its 1st time in democracy of india such a bill is passed under pressure from relgious section which harm them self in longer run and india as nation.
Congreess is asset to india .. its have history and high standards to look at .. but now now they are at absoultely on opposite side of it.
hope someday they will regain past Glory..

Antony launches work of new international airport in Kerala

Indian Defense Minister AK Antony has flagged off the construction work of the new international airport in the northern Kerala district of Kannur, raising hopes of thousands of expatriates from the region.
This will be the fourth international airport in the southern Indian state, home to a large number of expatriates living in the Gulf region.
“After two years, you all will be able to fly directly into this airport and proceed to your homes,” Antony said after the switch on to the applause of a large gathering at the airport site near Mattanur in the district.
The Larsen & Toubro, the infrastructure major which received the Rs15.9 billion construction contract for the runway and allied facilities, started work immediately after signing the deal and the airport authorities awaiting Antony’s availability for the formal launch.
The Kannur International Airport Limited (KIAL), in which the state holds 35 percent stake, is expected to finalize the contract for construction of the passenger terminals and allied works soon.
“The board of directors of KIAL is meeting in Trivandrum to decide on the second phase of construction, which we hope to begin in April or May,” said Chief Minister Oommen Chandy, who presided over the groundbreaking ceremony.
The first flight will take off from here on December 31, 2015, he said.
Federal Ministers KC Venugopal and Mullapally Ramachandran, the southern state’s diaspora minister K. C. Joseph and aviation minister K. Babu and deputy leader of the opposition in Kerala Assembly, Kodiyeri Balakrishnan, were also present.
Venugopal, the junior minister for aviation, officially announced the decision of the Airports Authority of India (AAI) to take 26 percent equity participation in the company.
Energy major Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited (BPCL) and other public sector companies together hold 23 percent while the public is offered 16 percent, of which six percent is already subscribed.
Five percent of the shares is offered to the Federal Bank and NRI businessman Yusuffali MA.
The remaining five percent is offered to the small expatriate investors.
The authorized equity capital is Rs10 billion.
The cost of land, converted into equity, was fixed at Rs2.94 billion. The remaining part will be raised through debt.
The airport, coming up in 2,000 acres, will cater to a large number of people from the region staying in the Gulf countries and open up immense potential of tourism and Kannur’s cotton wears.
Besides the existing Calicut, Cochin and Trivandrum airports, surviving mainly on the Gulf-bound migrants, the state is also planning another international airport in the Central Kerala heritage town of Aranmula, which will be India’s first private airport in which the state government was offered a 10 percent “sweat equity”.

Federal Ministers KC Venugopal and Mullapally Ramachandran, the southern state’s diaspora minister K. C. Joseph and aviation minister K. Babu and deputy leader of the opposition in Kerala Assembly, Kodiyeri Balakrishnan, were also present.
Venugopal, the junior minister for aviation, officially announced the decision of the Airports Authority of India (AAI) to take 26 percent equity participation in the company.
Energy major Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited (BPCL) and other public sector companies together hold 23 percent while the public is offered 16 percent, of which six percent is already subscribed.
Five percent of the shares is offered to the Federal Bank and NRI businessman Yusuffali MA.
The remaining five percent is offered to the small expatriate investors.
The authorized equity capital is Rs10 billion.
The cost of land, converted into equity, was fixed at Rs2.94 billion. The remaining part will be raised through debt.
The airport, coming up in 2,000 acres, will cater to a large number of people from the region staying in the Gulf countries and open up immense potential of tourism and Kannur’s cotton wears.
Besides the existing Calicut, Cochin and Trivandrum airports, surviving mainly on the Gulf-bound migrants, the state is also planning another international airport in the Central Kerala heritage town of Aranmula, which will be India’s first private airport in which the state government was offered a 10 percent “sweat equity”.
