Every state in India has Assembly elections and i dont find it to be something to celebrate. Its a meet where people elect the best person to care of various departments and needs and ensure the the common people in that state doesn't witness scarcity of the basic needs. But recently, in the state of Bihar, there was an assembly election held and to everyone's surprise, the MLA's were gifted Microwave Ovens, costly watches (Rs.26,000 each), Trolleys and many others. Gifts aint bad at all but not at the cost of the common people in that state.
We as the citizens of India are all aware of what Bihar has been upto. It has always been into a bubble of Electricity and water crisis, lack of education and lack of employment. Who will take care of the situation? Who will take care of the public funds and allocate it accordingly in order to manage the crisis that the state is into? I truly find it baseless to spend Lakhs and Crores for the welfare and luxury for the MLA's, that too where 142+ out of 246 are millionaires, where as the common people in that state are lacking basic amenities. In a state where school teachers are not being paid for months and commoners are not being able to satisfy their hunger and shelter! I have recently watched a debate where one of the MLA's said that they need microwave oven as they need to warm their eatables and then have their meals in order to work more efficiently. This is absolutely Bizarre!!! How can the MLA even make this comment? Just to get their food warm, they are ignoring the crisis at which their state is leading to? Another point was debated where they were trying to explain the difference between public fund and party fund. Doesn't the Party has any responsibility towards the welfare of the state? Are the party funds used to gift expensive items to the MLA's and let the poor people live the way they are living? If they are making use of their party funds, then why isn't the Public funds being used effectively to ensure betterment and glory to the state of Bihar?
According to me the gifts should be returned or the Market value of these items should be paid back so that the deed can be justified and those monetary asset could be materialised for the betterment of the people in the state.
