parliamentary information office: It's always good to look after the poor.
Very good news to see that our hard-earned cash is no longer being wasted on India.
India needs to sort itself out and look after its poor rather than planning space missions and ignoring them.
parliamentary information office: How about re-allocating the money towards our own country? It's a joke, we can't afford police or decent armed forces but we can afford to give away (borrowed) billions. The government is very generous with other people's money.
parliamentary information office: I see the current administration have now added another layer to their spin instead of strategy tactics, inasmuch as they are now making announcements about forthcoming announcements, then the will as always, follow up with an announcement, announcing what they have already announced, then when and if, they actually get round to doing something, there will be yet another announcement, followed a few months later by yet another one telling us that they've done what they announced. Needless to say many of us are fooled into thinking that the government is taking action.
This particular announcement is no different. It sounds good, until it becomes apparent, that nothing is actually going to happen until 2015, so what apart, from attempting to fool us into believing they are actually taking action, is the point of this pointless announcement?
parliamentary information office: It is right to recognise and applaud the
progress that India has made through investment in lifting 60 million people
out of poverty since 2006. However there are still more than 421 million people
living in extreme poverty in India’s poorest eight states, more than in the 26
poorest African countries combined.
India
simply cannot be viewed as a single country, rather as a continent. It is a collection
of states, each one the size and population of a country and there is an acute
need for external support for some parts of India. It is also home to a third
of the world’s extreme poor.
What happens to that sandwich in the picture post 2015? People living in extreme poverty can’t wait for the
long term structural changes needed in many states where regional government
capacity is weak and health systems barely function. They need help for as long as it takes.
The decision to cut aid as a short-term
political decision aimed at earning popular support rather than being based in
the realities of the development needs of people living in abject poverty.
Parliamentary Information Office gives you more guide about politics.
