Dear Danait:
My following blog ( which , I had posted on several web sites )
, will interest you
As far as I can see , problem is not that the MPs are getting
their food for 1/10th the Market Price
I don't care , even if they get it entirely FREE
!
Nor do I care , if their salaries are doubled
, every 5 years !
If only , we , the people get the " RIGHT
TO RECALL " any MP , who , we believe is " Non
Performing " and has failed to achieve " TARGETS /
OBJECTIVES " set for him by the electorate !
( Isn't this what business bosses do ? )
He must be made to " Take his Oath " of office , which
reads :
" I will resign or be ready to be recalled , if I fail to
fulfill the performance targets set for me by the people who elected me "
regards,
hcp

Kapil Sibal is a Master of
Law
But his knowledge of
Economics is not negligible
Recently , he proved it by
saying ,
" Prices of
vegetables have gone up because poor people now are earning more and want to
eat vegetables ( what a cheek ! )
Demand has gone up but supply
has not kept pace
And , Law of Economics says ,
Prices go up when demand
exceeds supply - and vice-versa ! QED ! "
Thank God , Kapil did
not ask poor to stop eating vegetables so that prices can come down !
Or , ask rich people to stop
eating 3 different vegetables at every meal !
He could have even asked ALL
Indians to forgo all meals for one day per week , so that demand gets reduced
!
Or , he could have quoted ,
> Raj Babbar (
MP ) , who said,
" In Mumbai , you can get a rice plate for Rs 12 / - "
( address please ! )
> Congress
Rajya Sabha MP , Rasheed Masood , who said ,
" In Jama Masjid area of Delhi , you can eat well for Rs 5
/- "
( He is now getting his meals totally FREE in Tihar Jail ! )
> Montek
Singh Ahluwalia , who proclaims ,
" Any person in a city , spending more than Rs 26 per day , is
RICH "
Now , not being Agriculture
Minister , Kapil cannot say why supply failed to keep up with the rising
population of 20 million per year ( a well kept secret ? )
But he must be considering it
" Utterly Unwise " of his Government to be trying so desperately to
bring 400 million people above the Poverty Line ( remember Rs 26 per day ? )
Would not that make them
" Rich " enough to demand vegetables ?
Wouldn't that make matters
worse ?
Why can't we keep them poor
like our Lok Sabha MPs , who get their food in Lok Sabha canteen , at the
following prices ?
* Tea...............
Rs 1.0
*
Soup..............Rs 5.5
*
Daal...............Rs 1.5
*
Meals............. Rs 2.0
*
Chapati...........Rs 1.0
*
Dosa...............Rs 4.0
* Veg
Biryani......Rs 8.0
* Fish................Rs
13.0
*
Chicken..........Rs 24.0
And prey , why are our MPs
poor ?
Because their cooks /
drivers / maids / gardeners / servants
/ watchmen / peons ..etc are all poor !
These servants are all staying
in out-houses of the small 10 bed-room living quarters of the MPs !
Of course , rent free since
the MPs are so poor !
No need to vacate
either , when you stop being an MP !
Why can't Kapil persuade the
Lok Sabha canteen contractor to open branches , all over India ?
