Left is not right !

While on one hand political analysts may feel that the the policy stand taken by 'the left' on many issues are just obsolete, it is frustrating to know about their insensitivity towards the changing times.

The rise of the saffron brigade even in the unconquered territories like South India is attributed to the UPA's failure to control inflation, I view it as the Left's ignorance on many significant issues including the nuclear deal.

The Left parties turning the blind eye to the positive aspects and affirmative prospects of the N-deal affected the credibility of the UPA and showed them as a weak government led by a weak prime minister.

The problem is that the Left perceives the N-deal solely as an alliance with the US. They have failed to realize the growing energy needs of the country as its facing an acute shortage of all resources. The N-deal is a token for India to put herself in a strong league of nations who can independently pursue options for energy and defense.

The area where the stance of the left is extremely annoying and absolutely foolish is that when the whole world criticized China for its human rights thrashing in Tibet and inhuman practices in dealing with the monks of the Tibet, Left was not even critical about it.

As infamously known China wants a piece of apple pie from everybody's hand. China claims Tibet , It claims Taiwan, It claims Hong Kong, It wants Arunachal Pradesh and Sikkim from us. When all these is happening the Left parties here seem to be unfazed. Eventually their policy is not just obsolete but also very foolish.

China's growing military might in the Indian ocean region and also alongside the Burma border raises questions to which only the Left is accountable. The Left's so called 'communistic' policies no longer hold significance as every other nation has embraced capitalism and communism equally.

The Left hasn't spoken out a single word over the issues with China simply because China is communistic.

The Left's all out efforts to weaken the programs of the UPA gave the BJP led NDA the much required boost to be over critical of the government shadowing the humongous growth the country has seen in the UPA's tenure.

Opposing America in key issues like Iraq, Oil are appreciable but meaningless lamenting in developmental programs like the N-deal are nothing but fascist ideas.

The irresponsible behavior of the Left parties are going to back fire on their own in the upcoming elections as the people are smart enough to distinguish their eye-washing ideologies.

Only when they spare a thought for the increasing power and energy needs of the exploding country and its exploding growth, they can break free from the leftist jinx which is not valid any more.

Cheers !
