BRING BACK AUTO METERS

BRING BACK METERS

BRING BACK AUTO METERS – screams a leading English Daily in Chennai.

Why should this newspaper as well as another rival newspaper nurse a grudge against autorickshaws? Oh.....because these drivers do not read English Newspapers!

Why should a passenger worry about auto fares in Chennai? MTC is providing a variety of services starting from Rs.6 to Rs.60 for a 10 km ride (white board, yellow board, green board, electronic A/C board).

So many share autos & Tata Magics' to choose from and auto is only a last resort or a luxury which a passenger chose from various options.

So why to blame the poor auto drivers? If you are happy with their rates ... travel - or else choose your own mode of journey.

Will you fight with Sarvan Bhavan for pricing their idly at Rs.50, just because its available for Rs.5 in another hotel? Or will you fight with Data shoes as they procure shoes from Ambattur factories for Rs.400 and price it at Rs.1999.

Will this same newspaper take a grudge against  private TV channels and launch – "BRING BACK CHENNAI DOORDARSHAN".

The Indian government has close to 75 Television Transmitters in Tamil Nadu and wastes a hell of money transmitting Hindi / Sports programmes everyday avoiding Tamil prrogrammes so that private channels   like Son TV, Ajay TV, etc.  can thrive.

 No one can dare to "BRING BACK CHENNAI TELEVISION" for it will affect the "Rich & Rude" people.

Can we launch a campaign – "BRING BACK ENGLISH NEWSPAPERS".  Do you remember the days when an English newspaper's editorials and views were seen with great regard and respect due to their unbiased reporting. The editors of English newspapers were revered a lot for their bold and clear editorials and views.

But where are those newspapers today? Where are those editors today? When 1.5 lakh Tamils were killed brutally in Lanka where were these English newspapers?

For few drinks and some winks offered by  Mahindra Rojapakse the editors of  TOY newspaper claim in their editorial that " .........its a well known fact that Tamil children are also terrorists and so there's no fault in killing them".

N.Sam of THE MINDU newspaper dines over fine wine with  Mahindra Rojapakshe and report like writing an 'Anonymous story'   " I am sitting at the feet of The President and he has a clear vision on the 13^th Amendment for providing political right to Tamils"

So we should literally shout "BRING BACK ENGLISH NESPAPERS".

Why should the poor auto driver must be blamed ? He is the one who may be your neigbourhood fellow and comes sharp at unearthy hours to pick-up you for an airport drop or so. Stop blaming them.

FIX Meters on 1G, 2G and 3G Spectrum.

FIX METERS on the Natural Resources of this country like Coal, Dantewade Iron Ore, Bauxite and Natural Gas in the North-East.

FIX METERS on the foreign trips undertaken by the Powerful Politicians.

Not ON the poor auto driver who struggles everyday to make his ends meet.
