Bandh

A bandh was called on 7th December by opposition parties in Orissa against the death of 8 tribal people at Kalinga Nagar in police firing. I don't know if these innocent group of people were instigated by political groups to fight with the armed forces or the police was really barbaric that they fired without enough reason, but the state was paralysed. The trains were stopped, offices closed, schools closed, shops downed their shutters and people kept indoors. The state was forced to run into losses it can hardly afford for. And here are Sanjoy's views on a typical BANDH.


ADVANTAGES OF BANDH(STRIKE) IN INDIA.
=====================================

1.RELAXED ATMOSPHERE IN OFFICE AND WORK PLACE.

2.CAN GO TO WORK LATE.

3.LESS MONEY TRANSATION(INDIANS ARE MISERS)

4.GOOD FOR MORNING WALKERS

5.BOYS AND GIRLS CAN PLAY ON THE ROADS.

6.HUGE NATIONAL SAVINGS ON PETROL, DISEL & ELECTRICITY

7.MAINTAINACE OF VEHICLES

8.LESS THEFT . AS MOST OF THEM ARE HIRED BY POLITICAL PARTIES.

9.HOSPITALS ARE LESS CROWED.

10.NO ROAD TRAFFIC ACCIDENTS, VALUABLE LIVES ARE SAVED.

11.POLLUTION FREE

12.MORE ALCOHOL SALE ON THE PREVIOUS DAY.

13.PRESS AND POLICE BECOME ACTIVE.

14.RAILWAYS/ ROADS GET MUCH NEEDED REST.

15.INNOCENT ANIMALS, AND BIRDS ARE NOT KILLED.

16.STATES LIKE BENGAL,BIHAR, UP PEOPLE IN JOB GET THEIR
SALARY WITHOUT WORKING OR TAKING ANY LEAVE ON THAT DAY.

17.PICNIC ATMOSPHERE EVERY WHERE.

18.MISERS ARE HAPPY THEY DONOT HAVE TO GO TO BANK.

19. EFFICIENCY OF POLICE AND ADMINISTRATORS ARE TESTED.

20.POST STRIKE SYNDROME THE NEXT DAY.

21.PUBLIC SECTORS PRODUCE MAXIMUM ON BANDH DAYS(MD GETS THE CREDIT)JUST TO SHOW THAT BANDH WAS NOT A SUCCESS.


EXPERTS SAY ,LOTS OF MONEY ARE WASTED DUE TO STRIKE AND THE COUNTRY CAN'T PROGRESS. BUT MONEY IS A MAN MADE THING WHERE AS THESE LISTED FACTS ABOVE HAVE DIFFERENT IMPLICATIONS,SO INDIA SHOULD HAVE FOUR "NATIONAL STRIKE DAYS" IN A YEAR WHEN THE OPPOSION PARTY OR THE GOVERNMENT CAN CALL FOR A "BANDH" .THESE 4 DAYS WILL BE TREATED AS SPECIAL LEAVES.
