The Uttrakhand disaster (13th to 17 the June)
played havoc too awful for words with minds, material and Governance closely
related with wisdom and conscious guided decisions. All including politicians
of ruling party and elite group of opposition, media crew, their anchors and so
called experts were seen condemning the government. Those badly affected
shouting for Government mercy and supply of daily provision failure are equally
responsible. The scale, form and nature
of disaster was unparalleled in the present known history. The blames were made
for belated response by the Government. The demand for pressing in to service
the entire fleet of helicopters with Indian Air force with onego was unjustified. The
suffering of permanent settlers in the terrain neglected and left without any provision
for days.
May ask all of them what were the conditions of connectivity
:wireless, telephones, cell phones, the working of towers, transportation
,conveyance, roads, bridges, food and lodging ,settlements, air routes, rail
routes, water supply -all rendered non exist ant. How can one manage such scale
of destruction?
If you slip and fall on ground, it takes time to recover to
normalcy .If you feel attending toilets, you take time to undo your pants
&pajama and rush to the destination .The state government was fast in
executing the rescue operation. Yes army men deserve our salute. Are they not
due to leadership of our civilian governments and their policy? It was commend
able. So was the out pouring of relief materials from all corner of the
country.
The first thing now every government should do is to
investigate their failures and admit in public. It should be done at all levels;
village, block, district, regional ,organizational
and state.
