Bhawanipatna, May 12, 2010
Someone rightly has named it Kalahandi. Yesterday the CM declared no more power cut in the state, yet there is timely light out in Kalahandi. Please someone tell me - Is Kalahandi not a part of Orissa?
The Grid agreed that there will be only 2&half hours power cut and since this morning there is more than 3 hours power cut with atleast in total 1 hour failure. Last night there was a 'Rasta Roko' in Bhawanipatna protesting the inhumane power cut and random power failures. This morning there was a demonstartion where the Electricity department official was made to walk with the public. It was heard some other officials saying this as improper.
What is proper then? Begging for electricity as alms for decades together and getting step brother's behaviour in return is proper? The people of Kalahandi have been approaching for years with all decent procedures. The authority has left them with no more options but to show resentment.
Our Political leaders have never done anything so far in fields of Water & Electricity. Power cut & Power failure together sometimes totals to 6-7 hours of suffering in a day. Yet none of the NETAs come out to do anything. Is it expected of a common man to come out everytime and fight for himself? They have chosen the MLAs & the MPs for this job who don't seem to be doing their duty. Are they waiting for the public to go kneeling down to them and beg?
I don't much know about politics and other things, but I think if the leaders still keep sleeping and things are made to be sorted out by the public then in coming days frequent law and order problem may become a common thing. Life in Kalahandi may not be as pleasing as it seems to be.
I would like readers to give their opinion on this.
Regards - Capt R Senapati
