CONSTRUCTIVE COMMUNISM

Bikram: - The Congress Party has failed to control the price of foods as well as of other necessary commodities. Pranab Mukherjee is turning out to be a bad finance minister. Also, the performance of NCP leader Mr. Sharad Yadav is a big question mark. Why BJP, Trinamool Congress and Left Parties are not protesting against the price rise?

Dilip: - The Left Parties have always protested against the price rise and is still doing that. Mamata Banerjee has become a puppet in the hands of Congress just like Mayawati. Still today, in Kolkata, you can eat a full Bengali meal in 20 bucks only, which contains Plain Rice, two curries, one bowl of dal, and one fish curry. Go to other states, you have to spend at least 40 bucks to eat a full meal and that too only vegetarian. CPI (M) has ruled in West Bengal for more than 30 years, that is why, inflation in West Bengal is very much in control.

Bikram: - I don’t agree to you. Gone are those days, when CPI (M) used to maintain a strict discipline among their party cadres and used to protest against capitalism. At present, the CPI (M) cadres have become so corrupted that they don’t even understand the definition of communism. What is happening in Rajarhat, Dumdum, Barackpore, Garia and other major parts of Kolkata? Can’t you realize that? CPI (M) party leaders are selling their ideology of communism in the hands of those Marwari, Bihari and North Indian promoters? They are building skyscrapers, shopping malls, multiplexes and other big business units, where the prices are rising like anything. Today, a simple cotton shirt in a shopping mall costs at least 899 bucks. If you want to watch a film, you need to spend at least 150 bucks. I can understand that some people can still afford to spend that much money, but, when those 15% of the people of the society are spending too much money than it is feasible for their entertainment, it is indirectly increasing the inflation to rise like anything.

Arindam: - You are just giving lectures on communism like the Maoists do in the jungles. BJP does not believe in fake lectures. If you people are so much knowledgeable about the inflation and its bad effects, then why you people have never stopped the proceedings in a fruitful manner. Amend a law in West Bengal that no industrialists can sell their product beyond a certain price; instead of doing that, you people have totally ignored industrialization in Bengal. CPI (M) was acting like the Kalidasa, who was cutting the same trunk on which he was sitting. Going against the industrialization is totally a foolish act. That is a destructive communism. Communists of new era should support industrialization in such a manner that it brings inclusive growth as well as it controls the inflation. Economists are of the opinion that if there is no inflation, the economy of a country does not prosper. But, the concept of Grameen Bank has proved it wrong. The main mantra should be to drive the car at such a speed that it utilizes the maximum mileage of the car. Now, I want to ask a simple question to all the communists of Bengal. Is Sector-V of SaltLake City a SEZ?

Dilip:- Yeah, it is a kind of SEZ only.

Arindam: - the region where a common man needs to pay double the money for everything, than he needs to spend in any other parts of the city, then that region cannot be termed as SEZ. Then, the concept of Special Economic Zone has no value. If a restaurant owner charges 60 bucks for Bengali meal in Sector-V, an employee of IT sector will not hesitate to pay it, because he earns 35,000 bucks a month. But, a person of middle class family or a labor, who earns only 80 bucks a day, will just break all the furniture and glasses of that restaurant because he has to live by having a single meal only in a day. Mamata Banerjee will shout that CPI (M) hooligans have attacked the restaurant owner, who is a Trinamool worker. Sonia Gandhi will request for money from the World Bank as more than 74% of Bengal people are having single meal per day. Had the CPI (M) party leaders and cadres followed the theory of “CONSTRUCTIVE COMMUNISM” in these 30 years, then maybe, West Bengal would have been the No.1 state of India.
