Minimum Government, Maximum Governance; Smallest Political Party

Minimum Government, Maximum Governance

I believe government has no business to do business. The focus should be on Minimum Government but Maximum Governance.

- Narendra Modi

For decades, we have had extraordinarily large governments while ironically the quality of governance has been quite poor. There has been more attention paid to the size of the government and not so much to its quality. Thus, Narendra Modi’s model of a small yet efficient government stands out. Narendra Modi believes that the role of a Government in businesses should be limited to that of a facilitator.

Narendra Modi’s has translated his beliefs into reality with Gujarat ranking as the number one state in economic freedom in India. The economic freedom index shows that Gujarat under Narendra Modi, has a small-size state machinery, and is very efficient in protecting human life and property vis-a-vis the quality of the justice mechanism measured by the availability of judges, the completion rate of cases by courts. The investigation quality by the police is also impressive.

In addition, the labour scenario in the state has been found to be superior under him. Thus Narendra Modi had demonstrated that a good justice delivery mechanism and an entrepreneur-friendly environment is possible, even with a small and less intrusive government.

Another aspect of Narendra Modi’s approach governance has been his adherence to Gandhiji’s principle of Swaraj. Mahatma Gandhi was a believer in the importance of self-government and believed every village must be empowered to deal with local issues. Narendra Modi took concrete steps towards fulfilling Bapu’s dream by making local self-governments more effective. He made decentralization a basic pillar of his governance model and ensured adequate powers were given to people.

Gujarat was a state where 20% of the area had 71% of the water resources and the remaining 80% areas had merely 29% of water resources. Management of water resources has been one of the biggest challenges for the State Government. Through his political acumen, Narendra Modi turned this crisis into an opportunity. He created a ‘Special Purpose Vehicle’ called WASMO (Water and Sanitation Management Organization) in 2002 to empower the rural communities to manage their water situation.

Village level Pani Samitis (Water Councils) empowered rural communities. Thesewere groups of 10-12 members from a village who were trained by Government through capacity building programmes and allowed to decide how the water resources available in their areas should be used. The members of the Samitis were directed to contribute ten percent of the capital costs in order to feel a sense of ownership and responsibility towards welfare of the village.

Pani Samitis have particularly institutionalized the involvement of women leading to a positive impact in terms of sanitation, health, checking water-borne diseases and reduction in drudgery. The number of PaniSamitisin Gujarat rocketed from 82 to 18,076 between 2002 and 2012.

Another significant initiative by Narendra Modi has been the efficient decentralisation of Administration in the form of ATVT (Apno Taluko Vibrant Taluko). It was launched to empower people locally to guide the growth process through a sub district citizen-centric approach where governance and development is activated at the grass root level.

Obviously, all BJP leaders are unhappy. BJP won in a big way; they did celebrate in a grand way; the last good thing, they do remember now is: the laddu

After that laddu, nothing seems to be going good for the BJP leaders.

They cannot blame Narendra Modi; he has been very open in his policy.

• Minimum Government.
• Government has no business to do business.
• Government is a service sector.
• Service also non-profit service.
• Political Service is equivalent to Military Service.
• Only sacrifice; sacrifice your wealth; sacrifice your time; sacrifice your energy.

Those BJP leaders deserve sympathy. After a wait for several decades, now they got the power.

But what is the use; 

கைக்கு எட்டியது, வாய்க்கு எட்டவில்லை.

மரம் ஏறி, தேன் எடுப்பவன், முழங்கையையும் நக்கக்கூடாது என்றால் என்ன.

ஜவஹர்லால் நேரு, பட்டேல், காங்கிரஸ்காரங்க அனைவருமே, மோகந்தாஸ் கரம்சந்த் காந்தியை வைச்சுக்கிட்டு, கஷ்டப்பட்டாங்க.

இப்ப, பிஜேபி தலைவர்கள் அனைவருமே, நரேந்திர மோடியினால் கஷ்டப்பட்டு இருக்காங்க.

In general, people enter into politics; not to do business.

Business needs capital; management skills; innovation; risk; challenges and profit.

Politicians don't want to do business for all the above reasons. They just need a minimum cut under the table. They are not greedy too.

In the whole history of corruption in India, only a very few crossed the limit and reached the sky. Rest of all corruption didn't even qualify to be labelled as corruption.

In fact, government spent more money in finding the truth about Bofors deal; than the money government lost in the Bofors deal.

Certainly, nobody enters into politics to serve the nation.

In general, service is a thankless job.

All politicians have done something good for the people and the nation, at some point of time.

For instance, Lallu Prasad; do we still need to put the caste label; yadav.

At least, Akilesh should give up the caste lable; yadav.

Lallu Prasad did stop Advani Rath Yatra.

But people don't mention about it.

So, Narendrabhai, political leaders need very very big government. They have to be minister.

Otherwise, even their family members do not respect.

Then how could they face people.

Tolerable corruption; people don't mind it.

People know that, these politicians invest so much money for elections.

How could they get the return on their investment.

Money is needed to manage any political organization.

If we don't allow our political leaders to take their share out from the tax money;

then, we may have to go back to olden days.

You know, that hundial; made out of tin.

Mainly communists used to go around the people asking for donations.

காதல் செய்கின்ற தருணத்தில், ஆணும், பெண்ணும், ஆனந்தமாக, ஊரை வலம் வருவார்கள்.

கல்யாணம் ஆனவுடன், முகத்தில் ஒரு சோகம் குடி கொண்டு விடும்.

அதுபோன்ற நிலைமைதான், இன்றைய பிஜேபி தலைவர்களுக்கு.

ஜெயித்தும், சோகம்.

என்ன கொடுமை, சார்.

What is the use of getting absolute majority; Advani has lost his room; his title.

Very long, BJP leaders could not tolerate these sufferings. 

Right from the beginning, there has been a division;

division creates confusion; and conflict.

The fact is; Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi quit Indian National Congress.

Singh is King.

Gujarati is Chaos.

So, politicians were not comfortable with Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi.

But people, still love Gandhi, the Gujarati.
