I have been reading articles in the media on this food security act including one by Comrade Brinda Karat. Everywhere it is mentioned that the no of families below povery line as assessed by Planning commission and various states differ by whopping figure. It is also mentioned that there already exists a scheme to ensure that the poorest of the poor who father of the nation called Dharidhra Narayan get 25KG of Rice/wheat at rates of Rs1/ in some state and Rs.2 in all other states. This is Antyodhaya scheme. What was not mentioned is that this was first formulated and practised in BJP ruled Rajastan by Bairon singh Shekawat. BJP did not market this idea or their think tank of Jaitleys, Shouries thought it not worth mentioning. Earlier also Chandrababu Naidu corned all the glory for his Riotu Bazzar and Janmabhoomi programmes where as it was Dr. Channa Reddy who first formulated and implemented it. As Congress failed to market this idea, Naidu rode to success. BJP; loss in not effectively propagating this people friendly program has been to Congress gain. Will BJP leaders quarelling among themselves do a rethink?
